Good choice......I have some murdered out 1/6 evos, I might end up putting them on my c class... if you have to change them i would get something with more lip all around...
Carlson were a good choice, but they're popping up all over the place like the Brabus 6-star replica's. The AMG 5-Star Split Spoke black chrome is pretty original. It's always hard to find the perfect wheel.
...I might have extra pair 10mm carlsson spacer for the front, If i find them i'll call you.
Cool man, Let me know

Haha I actually have a set of brabus reps that I did not like on the car.
Thanks everyone else...I'll have better pics up later this week.
Nelson, Maybe I'll make it out tho that meet next time...wait, its this week?
Wait, did the lights and corners come like that? Nice rims man.
The lights yes. Not the signals though, they were clear and one was busted. If you remember, I had a thread about the smoked ones I bought. They were wired up completely wrong too. No h4 bulbs and the city lights came on when the headlights should have. Not to mention the foglights were completely disconnected without bulbs also. You should have seen the lame mesh grill when I got it.
EDIT: Found pics from the ebay auction...

Are you keep the original wheels? 8-hole Ronals.. were they 16's.
Yes I am keeping the stockers. If I ever sell the car (unlikely) I want to be able to convert it back to stock.

If you're talking abotu LexLuther's set, I talked to him a couple months ago about the set. It includes everything to mke the ights right, inudig the ajusment switches inside the car and the panels cut for them. I'm just not ready to spend $1200 on headlights.
Headlights are definitely on the to-do list, though I will probably settle for Depo's.

there is no settling when you have a 500E. btw, not bashing your car/lights but with experience those lights suck. they get all foggy/oxidized and the output sucks....not to mention the fact that you could completely destroy the lights when adjusting them. i know you didnt buy them and they came with the car but just giving you a heads up and to everyone else who's thought about them.
i have a set of Neez, EURO SIX RS80, 18x9 ET26 & 18X9.5 ET28, Currently install on my W124 E500 LTD, they were special order from Japan. i'm planning to sell my E500 LTD therefore selling the wheels separately, PM if anyone is interested
