Will these rims fit the c63 coupe?

Hello. I have a set of Vorsteiner Cast rims with following specs: Fronts 19X8.5 ET35 Offset and Rears 19x9.5 ET33 Offset. Can I use them on my c63? I am worried they may not clear the brake callipers. Thanks.

The offset is too low it wont fit properly, they will stick out

I think they will sit flush with the fenders and they can work if you use a 225/35/19 tire in the front.
Although the rears might some stretched tires e.g. 245/30/19

I testfitted 19x8.5 ET39 with a 15mm spacer (so the real ET was 24) and it looked like this (first pic).
On the second pic - 19x9.5 ET39 with a 10mm spacer (so real ET was 29).

That's a good idea - I ll put the car on jack stands and fit them and see how they look. I think Normandie4life is right. They will likely stick out too much.

Cheers.

Interesting, looks like the CLK BS wheels could fit then, with a 5mm or so taken off the center plate? olszowa12, you would not have access to those by any chance to see how / if they fit? The CLK BS wheel offsets are 25 front, 31 rear.

Also, sorry for off topic, olszowa12, you were not at the AMG Driving Academy event a few weeks ago by any chance? Saw a blacked out C63 with a lip, so thought it could be you.

No I don't have access to CLK BS wheels.

It was definitely not me. I live in Poland and that is where my car is located as well
