I always thought these particular lambo wheels would look good on a 202. What you think?

I wonder what the bolt patternis...

I like them, but I like to have the front a bit deeper lip. If money is no object, you can have replicas made to fit or you can get those holes filled and re-drilled.

+1,

Those close to FAB design rims,

what you think of these on a 202?-fab-wheels.jpg

prefer AMG or Carlsson or Brabus, as an MB closest family...

I've got the opportunity to pick up chromes like these, but 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. What do you think? 3 are leaking air and one has a line crack in the barrel, so essentially, I need to get them fixed and refinished, I think these are triple chromed. Price seems ok, 450 shipped considering they need all that work. What do you think though?

It's better if he can forward more pics., from front & back of the pattern area,

just to ensure that no any kind of welding & deep cracking between the bolts area....

Thanks for the suggestion, here's some pictures on his w124 and the crack he told me about.

I'm thinking is I pay 450 + 200/wheel for repair and refinishing, maybe 1200-1300 total not a bad deal.

I know these used to come blank bolt pattern and also a lot of imitations.

But I'll definitely ask him for more pictures of the bolt pattern, good idea. Thanks

Not bad, interested to see what they look like on the w202.
I wonder if a pothole made that crack!

Absolutely not, no, never. Unless you like ruining a perfectly good Mercedes that is. Leave all that crap for kids with hondas, these are grown up cars.

Not a fan of chrome personally or the style of those particular wheels, but to each his own. Do what makes you happy

Thanks ECTurboGSX, I actually never closed the deal on those rims. Found some that I like a bit better (not chrome, lol), but I'm not going to bother to post them up till I pull the trigger and put them on. I will say that the ones I'm negotiating over now, although jdm, are almost replicas (larger and wider) of a rim that came on a c-class.
