i wouldnt mind a set of pentas for my benz, let me know if you fancy selling them please! Mmm - I think the postage might be quite high Welcome to the board standard125r - nice Merc, lovely cars. I think I prefer the first wheels, the Pentas are much more 'retro' but are a bit at odds with the newer shape car. Would like to see it on the BBS rims - whatever, some subtle lowering wouldn't go amiss

I prefer the 1st set of wheels. They look good but would look great if that thing was slammed!

I like the big uns, Looks smart on em, but agree a lowering would help in looks dept.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Lovely car, I reckon one of those 300E’s could be a mega daily motorway basher. What are they like on juice? I’d have thought with the big engine they ought to be not too bad on a long run. Quite aerodynamic too.

BBS RG Pics Lowering will be done before the end of summer. May try some Porsche 928 staggered wheels befeore that. Many a MKI has passed through my garage. This one was at the salvage yard, and got her for $200. Unfortunately in the US after the car has a scrap title it is only good for parts. Saved what we could sent the rest back. I need some Euro Headlights for my 300, along with the lower metal pieces.Can anyone help?

Still think the 1st ones look the best. Keep them and slam it!

1st set of wheels without a doubt. Not retro, but definitely the best look for the car. Add a slam for the VIP look!
