Theirs a wheel catagory ,check their .Im trying for a set of 99 clk rims ,not sure if its doable ,Im thinking you can get an adapter plate ,the plate is bolted to the surface of the disc ,then bolts purtruding from the plate is a match for the wheel ,youll need a wheel guy to tell you for sure ,trust advice from someone in the business ,youll be happier in the long run. Plus you have someone to blame if it goes south.

you sure you want to go that route? Every old benz with wheels from a newer model just looks like it's trying too hard. Your call, tho.

You need the ET (offset) number as well. With a 7" wheel, 30mm offset in a W126 sedan starts to get iffy. With a 6.5" wheel you can probably go with a 40mm offset (W124 wheel) but it won't look right. The wheels will be tucked deep in the fenders.

They won't look "right" under any conditions.

I purchased 15/7 inch rims from adsitco. 25 offset. I see that the recomended tire is a 215-65-15. I would like to fill the wheel well a little more. That size is the same overall size as stock 14. Will there be any problems with using a 215-70-15 other than the speedo not right? If so how much would the speedo be off? Thanks
