Talking

Yes they are OZ opera II 2pc. so i can send the centers to paint

Let me quote myself

When i paint my car i will paint the centers body color
I don't really like too much chrome either but i do like to have chrome lips because i don't want to spend weekends polishing them.

W124
Too blingy. Maybe if it was silver or gunmetal and when I think of OZ I think of big time performance, not really associated w/ luxury. Borbets would be something I'd look into.

Well my car is a charcoal grey so they are going to be gunmetal and I didn't really like them because i don't want to be at the same level of people with spinners but i got them because i wanted 18" rims and i had the money. Like i said with the amg hammers i could always sell them.

painting those gunmetal would look nice. reminds me of calie320's setup. i agree those in chrome would look to flashy on a 124, but throw them on a newer model e class in white and you got a winner. just my opinion.

and no offense, but if you already have OZs, why in the world would you look into borbets????

Calie320 has lorinser style wheels and these are more brabus looking. We have the same color car but i was also thinking of painting my car a little darker and painting the centers almost black. If i see that they don't go with my car i'll just sell them. Also my car is going to look way different than his car.

I like them, just color match the centers like you said. No worries, I'm giving the E a whole new facelift. I'll unveil hopefully soon...

I like those wheels with the grey centers and the chrome lip they will look hot. the oz opera is a timeless design that duits the w124 well.
