Oh yes the light alloy wheels that look like a steel wheel.


123-400-15-02 14 x 6"
123-400-13-02 14 x 5.5"


I have them on my 240D, what a difference in weight. 9lb vs 18lb.
They were only sold in the north American market some where around
79 - 81 or so. (don`t hold me to the date as it has been while sine I
read the info...OK?) they were 6" on the 300D and 5.5" on the 240D.
These are rarer than hens Teeth to find.

I use to find them every once in a while in PNP. Aluminum wheels use to
sell for $25 and steel for $7. I always got these for $7 as they thought
they were steel.

The guys with the Pagota SL really look for these wheels.

I was poking around last night on CL, searching from Portland, Or. down
to LA. and found several sets of them, damn they want a fortune for them. 6" for $800

Any one recognize these wheels on this crashed 560?
The car is in Rancho Crodova, Ca. next to Sacramento. Probably at
Silver Star Recycling. Huge yard.

The price on these old MB parts has really gone through the roof.
Saw $300 for a used 123 TailLight.
