Old AMG wheel craigslist find.

Just came across these and was wondering if they would fit a W126....

I doubt there are OE AMG wheels because they don't have the correct shape and the ET digits are stamped rather than cast in. I'd have a close look at the bolt pattern as it might not be for a MB 112 bolt circle.

The wheels are 8" wide , 16 " rim and 37 ET. Look for these numbers on your current wheels and post them so we can compare.

They do not have the "AMG" on the face but like mentioned verify bolt pattern offset and other markings on the wheel.

Below is an early AMG wheel I was able to search, compared to the CL wheel (bottom).

I see the real AMG wheel has stampings between the spokes. I also went right past a very obvious missing feature. The CL wheels don't have the small holes between the lug holes.

Still, if the wheels are in good shape it might be worth taking a run at them. Be sure to rig up a shaft ( like an "aircraft wheel balancer" ) to give them a spin checking for bends as they can be bent and not visible to the eye when stationary.
