Love the wheels, not sure on a 116, but might be nice.

I don't know how anyone can bid without knowing the offset though, could be anything.

If they're OEM or OE they will have the offset cast into the back of the wheel. Ask for all of the part number in the wheel, if they're OE they'll have a Mercedes part number.

There are a LOT of really bad Chinese wheels out there, I've looked at some, many have AMG cast into the face but they are junk and weigh twice what an OE wheel weighs (more than a steel wheel) so buy carefully. Many of those abovementioned wheels are for sale in the Muskegon/Grand Rapids/Detroit/Brooklyn Michigan area (leftovers from a bankrupt wheel distributor in Michigan). They're worth $25/ea new if they're those wheels (some say "Mode in Germany" in the back of the wheel LOL). I've looked at them, they're junk.

Lot's of folks, buyers and sellers alike, have no idea what an offset is. The buyer usually learns the hard way and the sellers sometimes doesn't volunteer the information taking full advantage of the buyers ignorance.
