i personally think that style is very played out and common in general, but you don't really see them on out cars, so if you like them go for it...

I think they will look a little too dinky on a heavy w124... I recommend looking for something that's a little more substantial (i.e. more material).

Look at one of my older threads with pics and you will see what they mean by a lip or more material.

Don't try to fit in with your wheel selection! There like boxers or briefs, blondes or brunettes.

ZERO? Have you found any of my old pics, the wheels look fine if you have the right colors on your car. I have those wheels with the addition of the 2-piece look. look up a thread about terra lowering springs.
