C63 with E63 wheels
Hey all - I put a set of E63 type wheels on my C63. While thinking about this, I wasn't able to find any decent pictures of this, so I thought I'd share.

I haven't noticed any rubbing, though lowering it is probably not an option any longer.

The wheels are 8.5x19, 9.5x19, both 45mm offset.
The fronts have a 5mm spacer so that the wheels clear the calipers. Longer, non-standard lug bolts are required. Finding these are like trying to find pink unicorns, but I managed to locate 28mm shank lug bolts that worked at ezaccessory.com.
The tires are 245/35-19 in front and 275/30-19 in back.

They are actually replicas, I'm not sure what the actual E63 set up is. I picked the closest offset to the c63 oem wheels (45/54). The tires are the closest to the stock overall diameter while taking advantage of the width. They are probably smaller overall diameter than the E63 tires.

I agree with Roswell on the possibility of the rears rubbing over high speed bumps and with rear passengers.
The stock lug bolts on our cars are Ball Seat M14 x 1.5 with a 27mm shank. I don't think the 28mm lugs are long enough with 5mm spacers provided your reps take the same length bolt as stock. You should probably get 32-35mm shank lug bolts. They can be a little longer on the front because there are no emergency brake components to hit in the front hub.
You can get lug bolts at RAD USA Direct http://www.radusadirect.com/category...l_seat.m14x15/

Yes listen to Mort & get 32mm lugs bolt for ur safety. Our oem lugs are 27mm + 5mm spacers = 32mm .
Mort, thx for the link to the extended lugs.. Awesome link with all the length, it should be in the sticky on top as few members had problem finding 32mm.
