I was able to get a good deal on the BRABUS Monoblock IV 17" X 8 wheels and no longer interested on the MAE.

Your comments make me think twice about getting 8.5" width wheels on a W124.

These ones look wonderful !

Need your help again to know how I am going to tell my wife about the expense. In the meantime I think the seats from my 300E are comfortable enough to sleep on them for some nights.
