ET QUESTION 1989 420sel 1991 560sec WHEEL FIMENT
1989 420sel 1991 560sec

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was wondering if these wheels will fit on my 126's. They are from an SL.
Here are ther numbers.

129 400 0102
8J X 16 H2
ET34

I know I have 15's at present, and realize the speedometer differences. I am most concerned of the ET fit.

Thanks
Bruce

Are these the stock 16" R129 wheels? 12 or something hole wheels?

Check out the Picture Gallery - if you are talking about the wheels Nomad/Nomada had on his W126 before he put on AMGs, he said he used 5mm spacers for them.

I think you'll have to use spacers to correct the offset. 5 or 10mm with longer lug bolts should do the trick.

I thought possibly the same.
I am trying to stay away from the spacers.
Thanks for a good reply.
