Looking for some new wheels... 16 or 17
Hi, I am looking for some 16 or 17 inch wheels for my W124 sedan.
I like the later model E430 wheels around year 2000, 5 spoke or even the CLK E320 coupe style. Must be in very good condition.
Thanks

I apologize for saying airbags...I wasn't sober last night and can't figure out why i said that. I actually have H&R sports with no pads and 50 series tires. And I have about 300 pounds of boom in my trunk too..haha

The bump pads on the springs. They have different sizes which will either lower it or raise it a little bit. I have high pressure hose as a pad so the spring is not sitting on metal. And I have the smallest ones available in the back to balance the ride out.
As for my shocks, I still have stock ones. I plan to get Bilsteins soon however.

question about your W210 wheels
STLe320,
Did you have to use different lug bolts or were stock ones ok? What size / brand tires are you running?

I just used my stock lug bolts, and they worked fine to me. As for my tires, I have BF Goodrich Traction T/A's in 215/50/16.
