I want to change the wheels on my 92 400E from the stock 15" to 16". I like the 8 hole wheel just want a 16" Which other Mercedes 16" wheels will fit this car?

if you can find the euro 400e/e420 wheels I believe they had a 16" 8 hole.

the R129 sl had 16" 8 hole wheels in 16x8 with an offset of 34mm. they will bolt up, but not sure if the offset will be wrong. tiresize you want is 205/55/16 and the 8" wide wheel may be too wide for this tire.

you really want a 16x7.5 wheel with an offset of 37 to 35mm and 205/55/16 rubber to fit perfect on the car.

Thanks for that. How many mm is an ET51 offset?

you want 17's, you just don't realize it [yet] lol

seriously, on your rocket you want 17's

do you like the wheels from the e430, 5 spoke [late] and 6 spoke [early]?

my evo II's are 17 x 7.5 offset 37

do you like the evo's on my car?

They look great......but I prefer the original 8 holes. The 124 body is a hard one to match wheels to. I have always liked the 8 holes. I have 210 body that the Evo wheels would look better on.....just my opinion. So...what 8 hole wheels will fit, from what other Mercedes?

what about the carlsson 1/6 wheels. they look really good on a w124. I used to have them on my car.

i believe the R129 wheels have the same part number as the 16 inch 400E wheels from europe.

i want the 15 holes.

Where can I find the Evo II's? They look pretty smashing on your 124.
