Many thanks to @macarbon_johnb John Corbelt at MAcarbon for helping me every step of the way choosing a brand new wheel for my ‘89 560SL. I wanted something in keeping with the OEM styling of the R107 and decided on the 16” Maxilite “Manhole”.
Definitely a 5-star review for MAcarbon for their top notch customer service, speedy shipping and ability to get an otherwise relatively tough wheel to source. Thank you John!
FVAL, so happy to help you with your wheel project for the 560. I think it really came out nice. I love how the 16" Maxis are a little tougher looking than the standard 15" Gullis but not over the top like the Lorinsers. I think they are a great option for SL (or any classic Mercedes) owners. And the price can not be beaten. For anyone interested in R10-7 wheel options, you can see them here: https://macarbon.com/mercedes-84794/...r107-sl-wheels
