Yes still available. PM me the shipping address and I'll try to get you a quote. I'm afraid international air shipping will be costly though.

I Just re-barreled a set of S101's. For a stock body C63. They were originally 11.5 wide in the rear and 8.5 front.
The offsets in the front of Nelly's set just wouldn't work for the Normal body C63's. Even if you re-barrel, you will have to drop the front widths down to 8 inches total to make it work with an ET24 offset.
Nelly is practically giving them away at this price.
Ab im not sure what else you need man, these are the wheels for you. This set is 10K easy.

Makes me want to buy a BS cuz those looked perfect on Nelson's car. I really like the brushed & tinted clear outer lips, very unique.

I didn't weigh the wheels alone but I weighed them with Michelin PSS on and compared them to the OEM 19's with Conti's. The fronts were 3 lbs heavier than OEM and the rears were 2 lbs heavier. Keep in mind these are wheels and tires combined that are being compared. Also keep in mind the HREs are bigger and wider, as well as the tires. On a 500+HP car, this isn't very noticeable. The one thing that was noticeable was the loss of traction when I put the OEM wheels and tires back on. I took to the canyons in Southern California as I normally would, and my ESP was kicking in way too often. This car needs 265 fronts and 295 rears. The stock widths don't cut it.

The retrofit is possible as DadC63 did it on his.

So we are probably talking about 24lbs/wheels

The front and rears will require a re-barrel.
Those lips are 2.5 Inches if I remember correctly. Re-barrel the rear with a 7.5 inch inner barrel and the front will need to be done with a 5.5 inch inner barrel. even if you re-barrel the front it doesn't change the offset. Its still low on the front.
You can shave the back pad, but you will only get 4MM out of it. You can make it work, but will have to do some experimenting with tire sizes, MAYBE you can fit a 215 / 30 / 20 upfront with those offsets on a normal body C63.
I have no idea how any of these BS owners haven't jumped on this deal.

That sounds right on the high side. You could shave a lb with titanium hardware from HRE. You could also shave another lb using tikore lugs.

I don't think you can hide the hardware without re-cutting the centers. How else would you hide the holes? You could perhaps get the fasteners painted black to match the centers and thus making them hard to see and so they don't stand out and draw so much attention. The difficulty might be in getting a finish that would be durable and not chip off when the fasteners are tightened.
