Advice on these Vorsteiner wheels please...
I've narrowed it down to these two Vorsteiner wheels - one with a lip and one with a flat face. What do you guys think?

The 3-piece version

... Or the 1-piece version

The 3 pcs looks great only if you can get it concave, which I doubt our cars offset will allowed.

1 pc monoblock forged is less maintenance & stronger. My vote goes to the 1pc.

Can you share the price difference between both?

I say 3-piece. That wheel looks insane
You must go with 10.5x19 at least for the rear

I'm definitely thinking the same, but I'm thinking of going 10.5x20 (if possible) - waiting to hear back from them. I'm okay with sacrificing a little ride for it to look insane! I'll have a separate set of wheels for the track.

3-piece are easier to repair if anything should happen, but I'm with Roswell...1-piece.

10.5x20 is possible however one member here (can't remember his username) got the same size and wasn't happy. He regreted not getting 10x20 because of rubbing issues.

If I were You though, I would think about lowering the car and getting 19" wheels. IMO 20" looks good on a C63 only with a step lip.

I agree with u Matt, x10.5 would be the only way to go to get some concavity in the rear.. But u will need a high +55mm offset or else u will rub.

Plus, the rims will stick out a bit which is not everyone taste.

P.S play it safe if u plan on dropping the car later.

I vote 3-piece. If you're getting separate wheels for the track, makes more sense to get the pimp 3-piece wheel.
