New 17's-Was E320 wheels on W124
Well, after lots great input and a few links to some great deals, I went and bought a set of used 17" wheels for the 94 wagon.
I have no idea what they are, but seem to be some sort of copy or just a random AMG/3-piece "look" fat 5 spoke with a polished lip. They were made in Germany, 17x7.5 and came with VERY new 225/45-17 tires. Actually a bit more over the top Boy-racer than I was going for but...I definitely got rid of the grandma look and she handles MUCH better! I'll get some pics up this weekend.
BTW, I passed on my first choice of these newer E500 wheels since they did not have tires...but really wish I had not...they are beautiful!! In case anyone wants them.....he has told me he would take $300.

Thanks for the help dudes!

Are the rims you got like mine on the 500E? Very classy IMO...on any MB. 
I wish I could have found 'replicas' , could have saved me 5 grand ! And I got them wholesale new...ouch. But they do look awesome.
Bekkers used to carry the reps. for reasonable prices...but last time I checked they could get no more in my sizes.
Pix please !!
