Bigger diameter/width wheels enable lower profile/wider tires. The cars are pretty good in corners with a bigger contact patch. On Thu, Aug 6, 2020, 11:09 AM Andrew Strasfogel wrote: > I agree. What's the point of all that gaudiness on a plain jane car? > > On Thu, Aug 6, 2020 at 2:01 PM Karl

Yes the wave of the future is 123 body with 648 motor and a 722.6. Just enough nannies and power to feel like you are in the right century. Speaking of which, does anyone have a taller 123 or 116 rear end sitting around? Like 2.6? 1st gear is pretty useless with this motor and the 3.06 or whatever

W211s are definitely more refined than the 220 or 210. However, they are equally more complex as far as the “nanny” stuff. That’s not necessarily bad, as I don’t think most of it has issues from what I’ve seen. Things to avoid/be aware of: Balance shafts in the gassers Black Death in diesels
