126 (Gen 1) rims

I'm trying to find out if the steelies will fit, have the same offset, as bundts.

The epc has confused me so far.

I get no when I punch in 126 rims, but yes when I search 123.153.

Any wheel that fits a W123 should fit (at least) a Gen 1 W126....with the proper lug bolts.

W126 do have vented front brakes and larger brake calipers, not sure if the steel wheels are smaller or different to the point that would be an issue....

they fit fine.

steelies, aluminum hubbies, 5.5 and 6"

zero difference from 123 to 126 1st gen.

the caliper is only 1/8" wider on each side of the rotor... clears the steelies fine.
