I have looked at the definitve wheel guide, and didn't see 16x8 for a w124. But will a 8Jx16H2 and E134 wheel fit a 1989 300E. I have stock everything.

TIA

I had 16x8 ET37 R129 wheels before my clk wheels and did not have any problems.

LoveLEE143

Yes but these are ET34. I have seen some that said they will fit and others said they wont.

I understand but I still dont see that much a difference///////

On the PDF, it says you can fit (w124) a 8.25 inch wheel ET34 with a 245/45/17 tire.

WOW,

they'll fit.

end of thread.

LOL

lol, yes they absolutely will fit. LoveLEE, feel free to use a little bit of critical thinking of your own rather than starting a new thread on a topic that has been beaten into the ground.

Not trying to be rude, just honest.

LoveLEE143

I know you are not trying to be rude but I search for 16x8 w124 on a few forums. Most of the ones had a different offset. And one with the same same offset, some said they would rub others said they wouldn't. I was just trying to see if anyone had the exact same wheel size with a stock suspension to make sure they fit before I bought the wheels. But thank you anyways.

Bigpete123

The primary concern in terms of rubbing should be wheel/tire width and wheel offset. Don't get caught up with wheel diameter. This has been repeated in many places on the forums- ET35ish on an 8" wide rim won't rub. That's where the critical thinking comes in, that's all. a 1mm difference in offset makes no difference.

OK Thanks again I am new to the upgrading wheels. I wasn't sure if 1mm could make the difference if it was on the extreme limits. Thanks sorry for being a noob. Just wanted to make absolutely sure before forking out $$$.
