HRE Has confirmed FlowForm fitments for the C450.
19"x8.5" +47 // 19"x9.5" +45
Front Wheel Requires 15mm Spacer for brake and lower arm clearance.
Please note that the 15mm spacer has only been seen on HRE's scan data - NOT actually fitting on a car.
If you want the best ff the best and at a price starting at just $625 per wheel then look no further. The HRE FF01 & FF15 are your answers.

"The offset is dependent on the hub dimensions and placement on the wheel, so comparing the offsets of two different types of wheels is an apples to oranges comparison."
Wheel width and offset is all you ever need to know to compare two wheels fitment against each other.
The offset is where the hub ends/starts.

The offset represents the distance from the centerline of the rim to the hub mounting surface. An 8" wide wheel has a centerline at 4". If the hub mounting surface was at 4", the wheel would have a zero offset.
The deviation from the centerline is the offset. A 35mm positive offset wheel has a hub mounting surface (back plate) that is 35mm away from the centerline, toward the front of the wheel.
A spacer lowers the effective offset by its thickness, as it relocates the hub mounting surface closer to the centerline. So if you use a 5mm spacer on a 35mm offset wheel, you've reduced the effective offset of the wheel to 30mm.
Decreasing the offset moves the wheel away from the strut and brakes on the back side, and closer to the fender lip on the front side.

235 will fit perfectly on my rims, not sure about 245.
275 in the rear will fit, even 285 i think will fit

Bro these don't rub anywhere. Not sure why you think would. They tuck perfectly anytime they suspend. The suspension brings the wheel in at a camber where it doesn't rub. I had 285 on and they might rub on the inner liner of the fender which can be removed it's not needed. I went with a 275 instead. No rub no nothing bro car is getting lowered next week. Don't listen to the haters. This car drives like butter still.
