Actually, with the centers and the caps, they kind of remind me of the early "bundt" rims fromt the w123s, only with a spoke design. I think it's edging toward a retro styling, if anything bolted to a 210 can be considered retro. But then again what do I know 'eh?

They still look better than the stock rims. The stock rims are FUGLY.

Sadly, that is true. The really sad part is that I can't afford to replace them at this time. Just me and my FUGLY rims, but I do have a cute girlfriend.

A set just sold for $95 on ebay. You could sell your original set for more than that. But why trade Fugly for Fugly. I wouldn't even put them on a W123.

i've always disliked these wheels, but the stock wheels are probably a little worse, so i'd say you came out on top. though it does look like your hubcaps all fell off.

if you didn't ask for an opinion, why post pics and detailed pricing on your new mod?

this is a forum....members are encouraged to voice their opinion, whether it be good or bad.

i think your clk320 rims look like a$$ on your e-class, but to each his own.

Who cares what I think, or what any other member thinks....as long as you like what you did =)

by the way.... the summer set-up looks hot!
