how can you say these are the best wheels ever for a 124, no arguments, when what you are stating is not objective but subjective.

nice wheels, but THEY ARE NOT THE BEST EVER FOR A 124.

i was thinking more along the lines of the carlsson 3/ 12 with a deep dish.




OEM look to the 15 holer. i dont like the 2/ 6 only because the center of the rim sticks out so much. come near a kerb and youve scuffed your wheels. otherwise its a'aight.
