New Rucha Style wheels on W211

That is scary! I must admit that I work on the principle of 'if you want a job doing properly, do it yourself'.
I have also learnt that most 211 have short wheel bolts and 221/ML have much longer ones. Quite a few non Mercedes wheels require a bolt length in between this length. Too long and the bolt can catch on the insides of the hub and/or leave the wheel loose, too short and you are in real danger of the wheel coming off.
Make sure the bolts stick 20mm through the back of the wheel!
Good save!;)
 
I have problems balancing mine. One 'expert' says one thing and another says another. Just about got it right after three visits. Cheapo tyres have a big effect I feel. Back to Primacys next time despite the price.
Dead easy to keep them clean though. :bannana::bannana:
The comment about them suiting the 'bulk' of the 211 is right on the money.
 
i think they look nice, i have them on my W202 c class, as for the wheel coming off i have had this happen and its not good.........

god save the latte ;)
