Do you want ot lower the car?
If not, I would choose ET35 in the front to make the wheels flush with the fenders without using spacers.

Even lowered, u can go 19x8 +35 no problem.

I'm running 19x8 +45 w/12mm spacers = +33mm in the front of my oem 19's, they are pretty flush, I could even use a 15mm spacers.

Roswell, how's the 10mm spacer in the back? As flush as it can be? With h&r springs and some bigger rubber in back you think it'll be fine on stock 18's ? I wanted to go 275 in back this summer but with spacers and possibly a drop.. i don't know if it'll fit so I might just go with 265's ! Now what i'm confused about is that I need hub centric spacers right? H&r makes them although will they give 15mm x2 for the front and 10mm x2 for the rears? And this h&r hub centric kit comes with everything I need from A to Z or do I also need some longer lugs? It seems like so much for spacers.. thanks
James

i want to use the original tire size 235/35/19 and 255/30/19
so i can take the 8x19 ET 35 in Front and the 9x19 ET 42 at the rear ?!

Rear side what is possible with the 9x19 ET 42? with spacer !? or is it good without?


At the moment the car had the orginial suspension.
But i dont know if i should buy only springs H&R or the KW V3 ?!

Only springs with orginial the OEM shock absorber?!
i dont think that it works good???

If you are going wider tires than OEM, then I dont recommend you 10mm spacers in the rear cuz you will rub on H&R springs.

As for the spacers, H&R are hubcentric & are sold as pairs. You will need to purchase the longer lugs separately.

The whole package is cheap though, I paid around 300$cad for everything from essexdistributors in Vanvouver. (H&R canadian distributor)

OEM shocks with H&R springs works just fine... unless you track your car, than go KW V3.

At 19x8 +35 & 19x9 +42 will work fine with oem tires. Dont add spacers to that though cuz you will lower the offset, then cause rubbing. That is pretty much what I'm running with my OEM 19's & spacers (19x8 +33 & 19x9 +44) , that's why I can share my experience, and confirm no rubbing.

I would go with 8,5x19 ET38 in the front and 9x19 ET42 in the rear. These sizes are availabe for the OZ Ultraleggeras HLT. It is a lighter version than the standard Ultraleggeras.

In the front there is no problem even with a drop. But in rear it depends which tire you are driving and how much the drop is. I was running the HLTs with 235 and 255 tires (Continental SportsContact 5P) and a drop of 30mm. With this kombination there was a need to roll the fenders in the rear because of the wide tire protection lip.

I'm surprised u had to roll ur fenders with ur 19x9 +42 & 255/30/19.. I'm running 19x9 +44 & 255/30/19 w/o rubbing on h&r springs. I guess the 2mm does make a difference!

Has anyone stuffed Enkei RFP 1's on the C63? Getting conflicting "will fit" verdict out of wheel suppliers. Most say no. I have the GTC 1's with 50ET now. Thanks and sorry half off topic.

I think the design if the Rpf1 will make it difficult to fit with our large calipers. You're going to need a good amount of offset for it to work and the wheel won't look as good. Otherwise it's a nice lightweight wheel.
Maybe a vendor can mock up one on our car?

If I had a C63 here I would let you guys know, my only issue with it is that in 19" we are stuck with the 19x8 +35 which works fine for the fronts (if it clears the calipers) I guess we could redrill the 19x9.5 +42 for an aggressive rear fitment

Hub rings can fix that but you are correct
