Wheel offset question
Hey guys, would these wheels fit my C63 sedan? Here is the information... 19x8.5 5x112 and the offsets are et44 all around. Thanks in advance!

oem
front is 45 8" wide
rear is 54 9" wide
front
basically a 1 mm spacer with 6 mm more outside (and inside) wheel
total +7 mm outside and + 5 mm inside
people are running 12 mm spacers without issues so should be fine
but tire size must be considered
rear
basically a 10 mm spacer and with -6 mm less outside (and inside) wheel
total +4 mm outside and -16 mm inside
will fit
again, tire size need factored in

All my research (look for posts by Roswell 
) says they will fit with the right size tyre.
The question is why would you? The C63 is struggling for grip to start with and you are going to go down in size on the rear. The rest of us are all trying to squeeze more width under the rear.
I have OZ Ultraleggeras in 18 x 8.5 on an A3 and they are a first class wheel but no way would I put them on the C63 as they are simply too small.

You'll be happier with a 10 in the rears.

I agree with all of above, they will fit but the rear will be too narrow.
Look for a staggered rear set of 19x9.5 or 19x10 +50 & up.
