Bloody hate these wheels but i do like them on the 129.

Gorgeous wheels - and they are the ones that Brabus fitted to the 500E's they modified. I was always after a set of these for the Silver 500E i had, but none ever came up cheap, the Monoblock IIIs whilst visually nicer, weren't the correct Brabus application, as in not what Brabus fitted to the 500E.

Rare in split form as well.

too far away in Durham though !

Errr....no, they were made for r129's, w126 and w124 500Es....Brabus chose these rims for their press cars as well.

3 spokes are pretty gruesome looking generally, if those didn't have some history none of us would be looking at them.

Err..... yea, but if you want your car to resemble a saab good luck to you

3 spokes were a symbol of the 80's/90's...and that's where they should stay.

I seem to recall back in 95 Lax Powaarrrr had a bile yellow Carlton on Antera 3-spokes as a project car. 'nuff said.

and before anyone asks what I was doing reading that sh*te, I was 14 and didn't know any better!)

 

[talbir]

Well, just as well, since the 500E is from the early 90s...

 

[talbir]

Quite how 3 spoke wheels must make a 500E look like a Saab is beyond perception.

One would have to trust Brabus' verdict on what wheels suit a 500E.

You're taking this far too seriously, Talbir

 

[talbir]

Surely you as a wheel refurbisher would agree that alloy wheels are a serious subject, no ?
