Talking New '18 C63 Sedan Owner: Tires/Spacers Question

Hey folks,

Yes, I could have done a search haha, but I wanted to reach out via a post to get a accurate answer from the OGs! I got myself a 2018 black/black C63 sedan and I love it! So much power lol.

I have the original PSS tires on the front and rear on factory 18 inch wheels (245 on the front and and 265 on the back). Thinking of doing 255/front 285 back with 12mm wheel spacers. I'm assuming I won't run into any issues. Just wanted to double check here.

Thanks!

Congrats! I just did the same

I also have the 18s and looking to throw on 275/285 rear tires and add spacers front and rears. There is conflicting info on any spacer below 15mm on the w205 due to the fitment of the hub. If anyone can confirm the OPs originally questions, it would be appreciated!

We offer 12.5mm spacers that fit the C63 hub (they were specifically designed for our vehicles). Anything below 12mm would compromise the structure of the spacer.

We have 18" wheels with 275 rears + 12.5mm spacers and the fit is just right in our opinion.

I ended up getting 15mm for front, 12mm for rear from supreme performance - that was their recommendation as well. I'll let you know how it goes.

Read a bunch of threads including the 3 on the first couple pages and through google, none were directed for stock 18s just FYI. The OP also replied in that spacer thread with no response. If I missed it, feel free to point me in the right direction. Understand the repetitiveness, that's why I tagged along on this thread . Appreciate the response.

Sounds good! I went with 15mm up front and 12mm in rear.

Here is Supreme Power spacers on my c63 on 18s. I went 15mm front and 12mm rear. I recommend this setup if you are looking to make the car more aggressive on the stock setup. I am very happy with how they turned out. Car ride and comfort remains the same.
