  • MB C43 Tire/Spacer Info Advise

    I have 18" monos my C43

    The front 18x8.5" run 225/40/18

    The rear is 18x9.5" - Can I run a 225/40/18 tire on there with a little stretch and put on spacers to bring it out a little? Yes, I like that clean stanced look - nothing crazy

    It will go lower to get rid of the fender gap also so I am thinking lower it first and then see how far out the rears should come

    Anyone does this set-up on a w202 before?

    Do people buy ebay spacers or is there a good supplier or site sponsor for MB spacers?

    Here is the car;




    And here is a quick shot of my old C Class with 18x8.5" and a 225/40/18 on the front (same as what the C43 has) I like the way it looked. I had it lower but it rubbed so had to raise it back up about .5" to this height

    I've got 235's on my 9.5's but will be going to 225's soon when they wear. Your monoblocks are the same et as my wheels so should look the same. I've got 15 mm spacers on mine but you get a nice bit of camber when you lower them so it tucks the top in nicely. But I've got the AMG wheel arch trims so mine looked tucked in more.



    I had my spacers made up for me but a friend of mine had eBay spacers and they were fine. Aslong as you get hubcentric spacers they should be fine. You will need longer wheel bolts with those though.
