They did have weights that originally fouled the dust cover. So after removing them there was still something that touched but we could not see.

Great bit of information. Here's what I discovered today: The wheels are KBA, 14 x 6.5 and ET+30

The wheels, when held near what's on it now look (almost) identical, they are a different design and I can't find who made them or a size 😳

Not those two options. The lugs are standards and we visualised the dust shield is clear.

I bought a set from Victoria, they are chrome and they were fitted to a W116 that drove all the way from Sydney to Melbourne. Sadly as I fitted one at the back it touches and makes a bit of a grinding noise... but I can't see where it touches! I'm wondering if I should get some spacers?

What gave you that impression? ☺️

A unit from any 116 drivers side window will work.

Is there a difference in wheels ET between a W116 and W126? I bought a set of Bundts that were fitted on a W116 but when I tried them on my 380SE they seem to foul and touch somewhere...

F Fascinating article as usual! Thank you 🙏 I don’t understand why you would not rent a car rather then spend money and time waiting for Ubers. LA car rentals (from the airport) are dirt cheap!

I have to admit: I have never seen so many Benz wagons in one place!

If I recall, it was owned by a member of Topklasse… I’m sure the Godfather would remember!

Great detective work Mark! 👏

Not a bad review. Besides the Conti and the Nankang, I had never heard of any of the others. I'm happy to buy a decent tyre... I feel safer for my life 🙄☺️

Looking good

However, on the W126 560 SEL, the air filter had two conduits that drew cool air from the from top the car, past the radiator and gave a very well deserved breath of fresh air to the engine!

Love that Buick 😍

You just need a bigger garage Professor :oops: :rolleyes:

And that’s just outside of Los Angeles!

Sad to know you’re leaving for Queensland James 🥺. Good looking W116… ✅
