Looking at these 18" wheels
My 97 SL320 is at the body shop getting a paint job and I'm looking for some 18's to throw on. I've been reading up on offsets and I think these might fit?

Luis-
You got me - thought you had a perfectly restored 129.......
Not to seem ungrateful....but.....
I've been checking my mail box every day looking for my long lost part.
If you could really put in the snail mail this week, I'd be most appreciative.

I'm like a kid waiting for a new toy........
Stay well and good luck with the "real" re-paint.........
Please post a pic of the real thing once it's done........
Thanks again
Les
