18" Wheel setup for track & AutoX

Hi guys,

Would be glad if you can advise me, I looking forward to buy 18" wheel for my 2016 C63 S Edition 1 for track use. This will give me a wide range of semi & full slick tires.

If anyone tried it already, what are the spec you went for?

This is OE sizes:
8.5Jx19 ET38
9.5Jx19 ET56

I assume the 18" should have more offset:
8.5Jx18 ET38 ++
9.5Jx18 ET56 ++

Thanks

you cannot run 18" wheels on the C63S model. due to the larger brakes 19" is the smallest wheel you can run.
