Are these crazy offsets
Hi gang, need some thoughts:
Looking at 19 inchers, I'm finding most fitments are as follows:
Front, 8.5 width, offsets between 35-45
Rear, 9.5 width, offsets between 40-50
Spoke to a gentleman today at www.bekkers.com about some 19 inch AMG replicas with offsets of 30 up front and 35 in back and he ASSURES me these will fit just fine on the C63...he says the rear offsets are so low due to the concave shape of the wheel. Here is a link to the wheels I'm looking at:
http://www.bekkers.com/Merchant2/mer...=EUROS22119x85
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Again, these offsets just seem way out of line from the ranges I've come across in my hours of searching the past few days.
Thanks for any advice...

Yea it seemed to be just way off of a recommendation. I just placed an order for some Stance SC-6 wheels in the following specs:
19 x 8.5, 40mm
19 x 9.5, 48mm
These measurements, according to www.willtheyfit.com, seem to keep the new wheels almost exactly the same distance from the strut while producing an overall poke of about 12mm to fill out the wheel wells. Say plenty of members who run 19x8.5, 35mm with a 245 tire up front with no problems, so I can always add a spacer if need be.
