Seeking 17" wheel advice - 2 options
I'd like to get some monoblock replicas for my 560SL, and these appear to be the two best options:
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-alzor-pa...four/803-1kt1/ - 17x'8 ET30
https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...1&autoModClar= 17x8 ET35 ( Achtung DM11 if the link doesn't work).
I understand the 86-89 models have larger front calipers that make wheel fitment a challenge, so I'm seeking advice as to whether or not either of these wheels will fit. This car sees less than 2K a year, so the fact that they're aftermarket cheapos isn't really a big deal to me.
