C300 Coupe (2019)
Upgrading from Stock Rims

Hoping to get some advice on this, I plan to upgrade my 2019 C300 Coupe's stock wheels and suspension.

Current (Stock) Setup:

Front -> 19x7.5 ET44 -> 225/40R19
Back -> 19x8.5 ET52 -> 255/35R19

I'm hoping to get the car lower, and the front/rear wheels to sit more flush with the fender (something like the one linked below)

From the research that I did, and what little I now understand about wheels and fitments, I plan to use the stock tires, and just upgrade to some new coilovers and wider rims.

New Setup:

Airtekk Pro Racing Coilovers
Front -> 19x8.5 ET35 -> 225/40R19
Back -> 19x10 ET35 -> 255/35R19

Is this setup achievable? Or am I completely on the wrong direction?

Thanks

I would recommend finding the wheels first before deciding on your offset. A couple reasons for that, you may/may not be able to find the wheels that you like in that setup. Second, you can hit up the wheel supplier with questions such as "Will 225/50/R19's fit without rubbing on my car?" Often times they've seen almost everything and can point you in the right direction with your coupe. What wheels are you looking at?

Thanks for the quick reply! To address your question, I am looking at Rotiform RSE's, they have em in a pretty wide range of widths/offsets.

Will definitely hit them up and ask, thanks for the suggestion!
