Thank you Well,it was blue when I bought it but only got it because of the spec
040 is one of my favorite colors on 124s,so I went for it

Is not finished yet as I have the 3.6 engine going on it sometime this year + a re-trim on my recaro`s and will be ready to roll

Yeah, the EvoII should be 17x7.5 I believe. They are the perfect Mercedes wheel, they look amazing on every car.

those came in two different sizes:
the 500e (and maybe the ML) size was 8.25x17 ET34
the other size is 7.5x17 ET37

The cangius alloys came in three size's
Though if you look closely on the ML ones,the style is slightly different & they're 8.5j and the Offset is to high
The first car that had them was EvoII,hence everyone call the evo alloys
The 7.5 were made for standard 201&124s but they cost around half the price of the 8.25
The only cars that had them fitted from factory were EvoII E500 ltd and the 129 mille miglia

Long shot I know but I wonder if someone here might be able to help me

Does anyone know what AMG did in order to fit this on 124s?



It not a straight fit as it does not go on the 124 console but what does it take for it to fit?!!!

2006 C55 AMG 6 speed
If you figure it out, please tell me. It looks fantastic.

I'm also curious to know which W124 AMG car had a 300kph speedo??
