I have a staggered set of 19" HRE FF01 aluminum rims (Tarmac Black in color) taken off my 2013 C63. The wheels have approximately 800 miles on them and the tires have approximately 200 miles (at the most) on them. I loved the look but have decided to go with a more OEM look. The tires are Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. $2500 shipped (buyer pays PayPal fees).
Wheels are approximately $2500 a set.
Tires are approximately $1150 a set.
TPMS included.
Good morning...I’m the second owner of the wheels and have put less than two hundred (200) miles on them. The first owner (forum member) stated the wheels had less than six hundred (600) miles when I purchased them. When I purchased the wheels they had R888Rs on them...have been replaced with PS4s. The wheels are in great condition with no curb rash whatsoever. The wheels have an aggressive stance and sit really flush (rocks/debris may hit them)...there were a couple of very very minor chips when I purchased the wheels that have since been touched up.
Damn, wishing i was closer, just order a new set. Sorry to jump in on the thread and ask questions about fitment. But what size tires do you think these rims can get away with. HRE suggestings 235 and 255 as the standard, but to me on 8.5 and 9.5 that has to look stretched a little. Was hopefully for at least 245 fronts and 265 backs? Any help would be grateful, also do you have Performance Pack as well, I see the red calipers? BTW someone grab these since that's a great deal, not going to say what I paid for these wheels and new tires mounted and balanced plus shipping!!!
No worries...and thanks! I do have the P31 Package. You are correct about HRE recommending 235 fronts and 255 rears...I honestly didn’t think it looked stretched. On my current setup I have 245 fronts and 265 rears. I was getting an occasional scrub in the rear and have since reduced size of the rear spacer. I haven’t driven it on the reduced size spacer but will shoot for this weekend if it’s clear out.

I'm actually working with Modbargin now deciding what size tires to go with. I know the 235 and 255 would work but I really want to go to 245 and 265 sizes instead. Just don't know if there will be in issue with these rims. Thanks again, curious what rims your running now.
To help the OP, I notice another member is running these wheels in silver, posted in the Bilstein thread. Here’s the link if you wanted to see more photos of them on a car, great looking wheel IMO.
BRAD65FORD...apologies, I just saw your question. Right now I'm running 19" OEM C63s double spoke AMG wheels 19x8.5/19x9.5 with 245/35s and 265/30s. The 265/35 didn't work out.

That has to look great and even better than these HRE wheels for sure. BTW went with the recommended setup from HRE for tires, waiting for delivery. Did you ever sell yours?
It's a clean look and I like it. Sounds like 235/35 and 255/30 you’re getting...they will work out well for your car and it's seems to be the safer choice (no scrubbing at all). I haven't sold the wheels yet and if I make it through September without them selling I may keep them until the spring/summer of next year.
