Yes it´s true! "Rim Onkel" has done it again!
-Bought new rim´s again!!! [][]

Today, i bought a set of the unusual ATS rim 7x15" and with ET23.
I bought it for 140 Euro, and then i got a set of four brand new brake"blocks", one new oilfilter and some w123 switches [] I´m so happy right now!

So now i gonna renovate this rims ALSO!!! Hhehe..
And then buy nwe wintertires to them.

I gonna take some pic´s tomorrow on the rims on the car before i renovate them!

Rims like this:

Good Man I am waiting for the pics []

 

[tiger_biru]

If only they are not rare I would like to put it on my car. You lucky Onkel to have that kind of rim[]

Anyway, how many rims are you have now?[]

Hey Onkel,

You want to buy a set of 14" crhome bundt rims too (see pic). Now that I have a set of 16" AMG's on my car, I don't need them anymore. I, only need one set of rims.

Gary

P.S. I too was thinking my front tires needed to be lower profile, so I went to the dealer last night and they swapped them out for 225/50's at no cost.

Let's see...

BBS rims... check
14" Baroque... check
15" Baroque... check

...and if my memory serves me right you also have hubcapped rims? Wow. You're becoming the Imelda Marcos of the W123 world! (she had a whole cabinet full of shoes)

Would you be so kind as to donate each wheel to the needy W123 owners? []

Just kidding! Where did you get those 15 inch ones? For only 140 euro? []

 

[Onkel-Benz]

Okay, Here´s some pictures i´ll took today! []

This is how they look before i gonna put my hands on them and renovate them.

I think it will be great with some new paint and new wintertyres, 195/65-15", 195/60-15" or 205/60-15".

Here you can see the difference between the 6x14" rim at the front:

I like the 16" rims better, those 15" rims are better than the stock rims but well anything imo is better than the stock rims (ducks for cover), if I could get my hands on them I'd get them just because they're rare other than that not sure what the big deal is?

Because it´s the nicest rims on a w123 i think![]
So classy and fit the w123 so good!
Not as a "modern" ugly rim on a old mercedes. []

Well i´m so glad i have them now.

Congrats man, they look just like the ones on my 200.[]

Hey those rims, they are great! Repaint it and you will have another compliments![8D]

Just curious: When you open the hood, do you have to unplug the fog lamp wires?

 

[eso7]

hey onkel how did you get those halogen lights on the bumper and can the stock alternator take it.

Yes they are very nice!
Yes i´m gonna repaint and also put a clear laquer on the silverpaint this time! [] Much easier to wash the brakedust away with clearlaquer.

Yes i "unhook" the extralights with the little "ball-led" on top of yhe lights. Very easy!

But..who needs to open the hood??? []

I bought them in the city were i live. almost every car here has it on his dark time of the year.
But i don´t like the look. As soon it´s more light t the evening i take them off. MUCH nicier whitout them!
Yes the stock alternator handle it good. Doesen´t notice the lights are there.

Onkel Benz,
Is ther an extra set at the place you got them from by any chance? You name your price and shipping to Saudi Arabia, and I'll pay.
