15" factory wheels for 300CDT

Just want to get a set of stock 15" oem Mercedes wheels for a new set of summer tires. Since the stock 14" rims have new snows on them, and I need new tires anyways, if I've got to locate another set of rims, they might as well be 15". Don't want to have to use spacers, different bolts, etc. What models would be straight replacements?

Thanks

MikeL

Look for a late '80s S-class or SL

Starting in about 1986 the W126 chassis and also the SL cars switched from 14" to 15" wheels for a few years, and these had an offset (ET between 21.5 and 30) reasonably close to what you need for a W123 chassis car (which is what I'm guessing you mean by "300CDT" without a reference to a year). Anything later or smaller will have too much positive (inward) offset for your chassis design.

Yeah you need those W126/R107 wheels.

here's mine



They are the same style. Mine are not MB wheels. They are replicas I bought from Tire Rack with Michelin MXV4+'s

I just couldn't justify getting the OEM MB wheels. (new cost too much and used are.. used)
