My wheel r ok though
just have to get the key...
A SLK is a modern benz
think the older 126 is different than even your 126 wheel wise or at least it has been mentioned during my research
Then I would have to get tires
Not sure how wide my 205/55/16 are
So more $ when I'd rather use it to do the priorities
Still I'd like to learn what wheel will work well on mine... |
If the birds wings are clipped it is easier on you I guess. They do like to sit on people's heads sometimes. When I was a boy ours used to ride on my mother's head when she pushed the vacuum around, it was pretty funny to see. The bird had too much freedom. Once I was lying on the ground at Christmas, just a boy painting his plastic model 1959 Dodge, from the kit.
The bird walked over to me and before I could stop, dipped her beak into the open little Testor's bottle of green paint. The bird had a green beak after that a long time but it was her own fault. It looked funny though.
I don't know if yours talks or not. Ours never did. But it loved my father so much!! It would scream every night when it heard the sound of my father's old '39 Studebaker coming up the hill after work at night. Even though by then, we'd had a cover on her cage.
It eats a lot better than I do. If I were a cockatiel I would ask if you are taking applications!
The SEC back in '83 had 14" wheels. From 1986 forward they were 15".
I was offered a set of vintage new 17' AMG Aero's, new in the box. But the problem is I don't want to run 17'. thought some people do. Especially the AMGs.
I think you are taking a chance buying used wheels like those take-offs on the ebay link. What is "normal wear and tear"? For San Francisco, for instance, that could mean a lot of rust, brake dust, and scraping and scuffing from the curbs. Maybe even cracks
The lady is offering the wheels at a good BIN price for four. If you liked them and there were no offset problems and you were comfortable with what she called "wear and tear" then, maybe OK. They even come with center caps already. Cheap enough for factory Mercedes wheels though. It would be essential to know how damaged they really were, and why they were sold.
Must be a reason.
