Are these BBS wheels?
My 1985 300D has aftermarket wheels on it. I have been told by a number of people that they are "BBS" wheels even though the center caps say "ACT" on them. I have seen BBS wheels and they have "BBS" on the caps. The caps attach to the wheels by using a special tool that screws-unscrews a bolt that goes through the cap and into the wheel.
Are these BBS wheels? Photo of a wheel. (Sorry for the poor quality)

Pull a wheel and check the markings on the back.

I actually think ACT wheels are manufactured by Ronal, whom offered a small line of after market mercedes wheels in the late 70's and early 80's. They still manufacture a wheel similar to yours but come in 17" diameter. You wouldnt want to sell yours would you!? Theyre beautiful!

it's a BBS replica made by Ronal ... it's easier to copy a design than create your own

Thanks everyone for helping me solve this mystery about my wheels. I was able to do some more research on these wheels and I was able to find plenty.
