my preference is for the light alloy hubcap wheels.  The weight 
advantage of alloys without the tedious cleaning required by bundts or 
15 hole or 8 hole alloys.

Re: [MBZ] 400E Fun -- Costco Michelins -- bundts 123/126?

2018-03-02 Thread Curley McLain via Mercedes 
And there are 14" and 15" bundts.  A 15" will fit on  a brake made for 
14" wheels, but a 14"  bundt may not fit on a car that came with 15" out 
of the factory.


Bolts always match to the wheel, not the car.


Scott Ritchey via Mercedes

As I recall, alloy and steel are different but all alloy are same. In 
addition to different rim width, I think there may be different 
offsets for alloys.

They will fit but there are various widths. 126 will be wider than 123.
