I dunno - but how did you sneak onto my property to snap that pic? That damn grounds crew needs to trim the bushes again too. Idiots.

Chrome was an aftermarket or dealer item at the time...wrecking yard, craigslist, etc is a good place to start.

Those are...
..Centras.
I've had them in 14, 15 and 16 inch diameters. Both chrome and natural finish. Popular in the 80's and usually had a big star on the lugbolt cover. Star can be either silver or gold. Jim

Looks like Centras to me...
I sold a 420SEL sporting a set of 16" centras last fall for $800. So, they're out there if you search. There are very few wheels I like on a MB. Some of the AMG rims looks very good to me but I don't think I want the diesel to be lugging around fat rubber. A black 500/560 would be a good candidate. |

IDK where to get 'em but I like those. Is it just me or do they call up images of Rolls Royce?

IMHO, chrome wheels are way over the top on any benz, and very silly looking on an older one. Some of their new cars look a little ricey anyway so the chrome isn't as bad.
