420 SEL wheels on 1983 W123 300d?
Does anyone know if these will cause problems or have had success with them?
https://i.imgur.com/167xTsc.jpg Ive yet to see these wheels on a 420 SEL. Not sure where they are from. Last edited by Wusha; 06-20-2019 at 11:53 AM. |

W:
It's all about numbers: wheel diameter, wheel width, & ET (offset). |

They’re 15” wheels. From what I’ve gathered anything under ET25mm should be ok.
Edit: the seller tells me the inner wheel markings are 75x5hz , 8.0 am, twm, px. Any idea what they mean? Last edited by Wusha; 06-20-2019 at 02:23 PM. |

Yes, I’ve been busy fixing the 300d I forgot about this.
15” wheel, cone / conical lug seat ET25 Used 40mm 12x1.5” cone lugs from Amazon. They stuck out about 24mm from the back of the wheel. The rear lugs did not fit, they hit the parking brake. I cut 10 lugs 5mm and they cleared fine. Fronts fit fine. |

Instead of conical lug bolts, I used APEX racing studs, conical McGard lug nuts, and wheel locks to install the Lorinser RS 90 16 X 8 ET 22 rims on 'Stormcloud'.
One racing stud was not permanently mounted (with red loctite) on each rear hub...to allow for easy removal of the stud to access the parking brake adjuster.
