Spacers size for 17 C63S Coupe, non-lowered ?
Hey guys and possible girls,
Picking up my new 17 C63S coupe in 2 weeks. I'm thinking of getting spacers to flush the rims. What do you guys recommend for front and back ? The car is not lowered at the moment..... Where to buy to ? Thank you...
Also I'm new to the board... Coming from the dark side... from a modded Audi S5.......
Thanks

Look at the following thread
https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-c63s-...oupe-17-a.html
I have 18 mm spacers on front and back on a non-lowered C63S cab w standard 19 in front and 20 in rear wheels. Front is perfectly flush, and rear sticks out a little. Pix are towards end of the above thread.
I bought spacers from Supreme Power.

I bought my spacers from Supreme Power as well. I did 18mm up front and 15mm in the back. I think this is a the way to go without making the car (non-lowered) awkward.
Let me know if you want to see pictures

There are alot of opinions on spacers and alot of threads (you have been linked above). I personally have 18mm squared but Im dropped and the tires are right there at the fender if not ever so slightly tucked. If you are not going to lower, I would suggest a less aggressive spacer as the wheel height gap between fender and tire, once spaced out aggressively, really exposes the gap visually. So maybe a 15mm max all the way around but this is my opinion.

We will see maybe I will run 275 when the time comes. Just replaced the rears about 600-700 miles ago so got some time until that is.

I was going to do the same here in Boston but I ended up getting another daily. It wasn't because the AMG was not drivable in snow (I am sure it will be fine with snow tires) but I did not want it to be covered with salt. I used to daily my RWD 335i with snow tires and I got stuck only once lol
