Wheel fitment for C32

I need to find out if a specific wheel will fit a C32. The wheel is a Work VS-TX (Silver)

The fitment is: 19x8 +37 Front (R "high" Disk) / 19x9 +29 Rear (A Disk) and will be riding on 235/35/19 & 265/30/19 respecitively.

Anyone have any experience with work wheels and whether this fitment will clear the front and rear brakes?

Thanks!

The only clearance problem you woudl have is the face of the wheel to the caliper. If that clears than they should work....can they give you the wheel to hub spacing? If so you can go measure to see if it will clear.

Those wheels will not clear the front caliper, also the rear offset is a bit too low, you will have a rubbing problem in the rear.

These are quotes directly from Work. The fronts are made for big brake clearance, hence the different disk types. The rears are what I am worried about since they seems low...but since they are 19x9 and not 19x9.5 I could assume that they would be the equivalent to a 19x9.5 +34 fitment?

They mentioned that it would clear the front caliper by 6mm.

The brake disk isn't the problem nor the clearance from the caliper to the inside of the wheels........the clearance is from the inside of the face of the wheels to the AMG logo on your brakes...make sure they understand that! Hope this helps ya out.
