Friendly Local Independent Tire Dealer (FLITD) says they can order steel wheels. I may order new Blizzaks and go that route. Tire rack has cheapo alloys for $80 each. That is probably second best. Only problem with steel wheels is that 15" MB hubcaps are as rare or more rare than 15" steel factory wheels in the US. And I need two sets of lug bolts. Good thing is I have a pretty good stock of steel wheel lug bolts. The $$$$$$$$600$$$$$$$ is the only model that came to the US on 15" steel that I know of.
Pricing some new Steel wheels locally may be the way to go. I am thinking they should be $35 or so each. Won't find out until Friday or next week. I did find the earlier message where you said you needed 124 wheels also. Wonder what a 110 would look like on 15 hole 126 wheels. Probably real strange.
