Hi guys,
I've now picked up the 2.5-16 wheels from a full refurb. For those interested, they were done by our very own Andy (Stats007) of Amazing Alloys:
www.amazing-alloys.com
A fantastic job with great attention to detail, should be on the car for the GTG later in the month if anyone wants to see first-hand the results
They look great, I still need to give them a final polish and wax/seal them before they go on the car but as they've only just been lacquered I'm going to give it another day to play it safe
Anyway, I'm now considering the options for centre caps. Up until now, I've always stuck with the original design for my 2.5-16s. But part of me is considering fitting a different cap to them - perhaps the MB 'laurel wreath' design in either blue/silver or perhaps black/silver?
Blue:
Black:
Not too keen on the chromed star type on these wheels?
Silver (Chromed) Star:
Opinions anyone?!
This is the car that they'll be going on, if that helps people to visualise them.
BTW, I desperately need to get the 124 wheels fitted, my pile of wheels is getting silly! Anyone got any spare MB wheel bolts lying around?! I'm planning on using blue laurel wreath centre caps for my 124 estate (it's blue
), so maybe black/silver caps to go with the body colour of the 190? Or maybe play it safe with the plain ones?....
Should be able to trial a couple out in the next few days as a fellow forum member has sent me some blue/black caps that I can experiment with
Will
