C63 Coupe
Keep the 18" wheels but want aftermarket

So I specifically wanted the OEM 18" just to get a bit of extra profile. I daily drive my C63 Coupe, nottttttt a fan of the 2019 18" wheel at all.

Anyone running 18" aftermarkets?

Finspeed can make a custom set for you and still clear the brakes fine. Best wheels in the business.

If you are sticking with eighteens then just try to find a set that's wide enough with correct backspacing. A reputable wheel dealer should be able to tell you the right offset and width that will fit your car.

Problem you may find on this car forum is that not many people even have the 18s, most have 19s, even on the Non-S C63s. And those that do have 18s do not upgrade to 18s, they upgrade to 19s or bigger. My guess is that you will not find much direct info about in the forums about specifics like back spacing, tire sizes that fit, etc on aftermarket wider 18s. But hopefully I am wrong.
