Friend of mine saw you at the cars and coffee meet and took a few pics as you were leaving or pulling up not sure which. So if you're selling the rims then what kind are you replacing them with?
What part of the Houston area are you in?

I've had my eyes on these for the past several months.. The seller has sold at least 1 seat to a w124 owner, based upon feedback. I sent a message to that buyer but he hasn't responded. I will probably buy a set in month or 2... I'll keep you guys up to date..

Shipping price is high.. But Cost + shipping is way cheaper than the kw co ive seen selling for over $2gs...

If they had something for wagons, i would pick them up in a heartbeat

Oh damn you're like 5 minutes from me then. Im in sugar land too, i live pretty close to clements high school.
Are you going to go to the cars and coffee coming up next weekend? And why don't you ever go to the 5 guys meet or anything?

Ive seen speedracer at the meet on westheimer at planet zero a few times. Never seen anyone with a w124 at the 5 guys meet though. More of a "ricer" meet i just go because my friend set it up.

M Coupe
In case anyone is wondering, M3 OEM front struts will NOT fit - they are too long. This is from experience. Tonight.
