Nice! That's a fantastic looking 126. It's great that somebody has it, who is keeping it that way.

Anyway, the SEL looks awesome! but I can't get past those wheels, and why someone would elect to use of them... i see it them and think late 80's early 90's chrysler new yorker
I also find them awful, but they grow on you. I first absolutely hated them, not that the stock Volvo wheels were any better :P Now I just see them as the easiest wheel in the world to clean! I just need to find a set of Aero I's in ET11 for sale when I have money :mad: Every time they go up for sale, I am broke.

Those wheels remind me of Pirelli P-slots ... but for Adidas. :) My friend has an awesome set of AMG monoblocks on his 420SEL. I hope to find a set myself at some point. Centra Type 31s are "kind" of cool too.

As far as the OEM 'look', like the Centras, I would shoot for the Lorinser LO's. They look much less dated, and the dish is subtle enough to keep the Q-car factor :cool:

Personally I like the look of Solid Snakes current wheels. Particularly when they are on the move and shimmering :)

I had a pair of P-Slots once upon a time!


they were incredibly horrid to clean the slots.... :o
