Hi guys, I think you have the specs for the M103 listed for this car. It looks to be a very nice car. Minor question : Is the headliner all completely attached above the rear window ? I ask only because my 124.034's headliner was beginning to come adrift above the rear window when I bought it out of Phoenix some 14 years ago. The sun cooked the glue so it needed replacement.
Any chance you could post an accurate wheel weight, both front and rear? I imagine these fronts would fit over the 1999-2002 R129 Brembo brake setup. Does anyone out there know for certain?
Thank you for the weights. Oh, such decisions.
Hi, I have a question and a comment. 1) How much do they weigh? 2) Picture 18 shows a 7.5" width wheel with 42 ET cast onto the inner spoke. Also, the inner spoke design is different. I'd say pictures 18 and 20 are not of the same wheels as the others.
Thanks, well someone got a nice set. My car has the 18 inch AMG 'sport' boat anchors. Pretty, but very heavy. The design / shape of the rim barrel is critical to some applications.
Congrats. I'd have loved these too. I should have asked this question to the seller yesterday.
Hello again, my paranoid mentality is concerned with the outside of the caliper, not the side of the caliper hitting the spokes.
@amusicianslifeOh, I already know what spacers I'd use !
Hi, Thanks for the note. It's not offset I'm concerned about, it is the ID of the wheel rim clearing the caliper bridge. Several of my Benzes have wheels which have unique features and 'just' clear the outside of caliper. Not all same diameter wheels will work, even from Benz. I'd bid if I knew they'd fit a late R129.
Hi again, 1999 and later R129s require 17 inch wheels to clear their front rotor / caliper setup. Do you know if these 17 inch diameter wheels have specific internal dimensions that will properly fit these models, with or without spacers ? Thanks.
Hi, I have 3.5 questions: What is the wheels weight. Are the rim barrels also forged. What material are the spacer rings and are they a press fit or do they use a 'spring' retainer. Thankyou.
