Help with W210 lug nuts
Hello Forum Members,
I have a quick question regarding lug nuts for my W210 E300. I have purchased a set of R129 SL wheels as my winter setup. These are 16" x 7.5" rims. What type of lug nuts do I need to use with these? Are the ball seats different for an SL rim? Any help is appreciated. Thank you,

AFAIK the R129 rims have significantly different offset than the original 41mm W210 wheels, which should be p/n 210-401-06-02. The offset should be stamped or cast into the wheels (on the inside) and be something like "ET 41," for example. You're supposed to be able to get away with +/- 5 mm of difference from what the car came with.
OTOH, I could be totally wrong. Jeremy

The seller called me today and provided me with a photo of the offset on the rims. Looks like they are ET41. I believe this is the exact size my stock rims are.
