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.
