C63S W205 Rims

Hi Guys,
I am new to this forum as i have only just taken delivery of my C63S in Australia.
I am looking at aftermarket rims (BC Forged) and would like to know offsets and max wheel width (based on 19" rims) i can go to before having issues with rubbing on guards. Currently ordered KW suspension to lower it a bit.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Congrats on the car! Did you go for the Kw height adjustable springs?

I wanted to get them too, but holding off all mods atm.

I've ordered the coupe and should be here in a few months - First thing on my to do list is the KW's and spacers... Followed up a tune and most likely some ADV1 wheels (as wide as I can go).

Yes, I saw that too!

Get some fat rubber on them, will make the traction problem a lot better. Also, the over all look of the car changes completely when the car is lower with bigger wheels that sit flush with the guards.

The coupe comes with 20 x 10.5 in the rear as standard... So hoping I can go at least 11.5 or even 12

Congrats on the purchase sir! It truly is a monster of a car - I've had lots of fun behind the wheel with it.

As Adv.1's largest dealer in the world I would love to be able to extend my wholesale deals to you and get you both set up with some amazing wheels. One gray and one black, should be interesting to see what we can come up with.

Your new rims look sick man, could you share what your wheel offsets are? Thanks!

Where did you order the adjustable Springs from? I heard the KW HAS Springs aren't available yet. Or did you run the coil over system.?

Hello there nice mod, are you able to provide a review of the KW's vs the OEM suspension mainly with regards to ride quality

A lot of people will want to do this mod so feed back on that aspect would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
Lets see... ride comfort is still there but put it into sports plus and you really notice the change especially in reduced body roll. I didnt want any gap so i have quite a lot of camber at the front but wonderfuly fun to hammer around corners.
Enjoy!

Good to know, thank you.

I've noticed that my fronts already have a slight camber and its sock at the moment.

Are you planning to space the wheels out?
