Good Luck, and finding a set with center caps as well will be impossible.

I did buy a set of those in black last month, didnt find any trouble fitting regular mercedes-benz centercaps.
The un-regular are the valve stems.

I'm not trying to be negative like some on here, just a caution

Those ARE great wheels and if you have to, there is no problem selling them.

Post some pics, though!!

Wheels, lowering, and "Big Brakes" are the best mods for "bang for the buck".

Where are you located?

If your looking at the staggered 17" AMG 3 piece wheels, they are NOT going to fit any W124 except the 500e. The offsets for those SL wheels are in the teens and spacers are not going to help, as the wheels are already spaced way out, spacers would make it worse.

If that wasn't a large enough problem, the widths of those wheels are not going to work either, regardless of whether or not you roll the fenders. 8.5" is too wide for the front and 10" is waaay to wide for the rear.

You might be able to get away with a set of 17x8 with offsets in the +30 range (would still need to roll the front fender lips) assuming of course you can even find a set of those.

Your best bet would be to pick up a set of AMG Monoblock II's in 17x7.5" Perfect fit for your car and no fender lip rolling required.

or get a non staggered set...like i do (i did try a staggered set and it needs fender rolling, and maybe some negative camber)
But i decided against staggered, but kept the wheels...so i have 6 in total lol

Excessive negative camber or stretched tires are not a solution for improperly sized wheels

Yeah without going wide body wheels won't fit, the fronts for the set have 15 offset. So im gonna settle on my first choice, mercedes ceginus evo 2 wheels, already tracked down a new set, prob gonna order tommorow they are 17X7.5 ET 37. should fit no prob. Then ill install H&R Touring suspension kit, as i dont want to sacrifice too much comfort

What are you talking about these are almost impossible to find and you've tracked down a brandy new set already??!

Great wheels, great look, and great size for our cars.

He's listed them for a long time...I considered but could not wrap my mind around the final on-my-car cost.

et37 7.5" are the right offset and rim width for non-500 124 cars. That sweet spot gives you more flexibility in tire choices. Assuming great incoming condition, these are a great add to your car, you won't be eyeballing every different set that goes by thinking how would THAT set look on my car...winning.

I want those wheels for for 90 300E. Are they widely available? Someone point me in the right direction. Don't need staggered, though.

it is already mentionned in the previous posts that those wheels are very very rare, and once they are found, they are expensive.
