Re: [MBZ] Wheel question

2020-12-10 Thread G Mann via Mercedes
I have a set, not yet put to use. They are 15 inch, which gives much
greater selection in tires.

Be aware the wheel lug nuts are longer with this wheel than bundt wheels...
and bundt wheels are longer lugs than steel wheels.
The good news is, the longer lug studs/nuts are available on ebay, for
relatively cheap for a full set.

This.  Very common on the late 124 cars.  I like them much better than the 
earlier version.

I had that happen once.  Highly disturbing.  Much preferable to have
happened turning around in the barnyard rather than the night before
at 70+ MPH.
