Undergraduate Student (BSc Mech Eng & Manufacturing) Posts: 195 Group: Members Member #3,534 Joined: November 23, 2008	I need a replacement wheel for my 190E, the wheel looks like this one, but is a 15 inch wheel which has a 185/65/R15 tyre on it The car is a 1989 2.0 Automatic if that makes any difference to the offset. Can anyone help me? Many thanks, Matt.

Honestly, so many variations on 15-hole flat-faces. Matt, your cause will be helped (greatly) if you can remove one of your other wheels and write down every single bit of information stamped on the back of them. They are probably genuine MB, so there should be a 10-digit part number amongst other info such as width and offset (ET).

Shouldn't be too hard since the wheel I need to replace is off the car at the moment with a huge chunk missing from the inside edge of it. aemt, I am in Southampton at the moment, but I am going back to Plymouth soon.

I think I have a pair of 6.5 j wheels without tyres. You would have to have the wheels balanced and swop your tyres over. Have a look on ebay you might find a single or you might strike lucky on here if you are patient.

Fitted to early W124s and, more rarely, to late ones. They were produced in 6.5 and 7" versions Have a look on eBay for individual W124 spare wheels for sale - you should be able to find one quite easily Nick Froome www.w124.co.uk Edited by bolide, Sun Aug 9, 2009 7:39 am.

Member Posts: 517 Group: Members Member #1,732 Joined: September 26, 2007	I have this genuine 15 hole M-B wheel Part # 201 400 1302 7J x 15H2 ET44 Professionally refurbed last year and never had a tyre fitted, so looks like a brand new wheel (inside and out). Came off a 190E 2.6 with Sportline suspension, so would also fit a 16 valve car. Only problem is, I'm near Lancaster, so would have to be sent by courier. A new 7J 8 hole 15" alloy cost �115.05 + VAT in 2007. The 15 hole 7J was even more expensive - around �160 if I remember correctly. PM me if you're interested.

Undergraduate Student (BSc Mech Eng & Manufacturing) Posts: 195 Group: Members Member #3,534 Joined: November 23, 2008	Just found out, the ET number refers to offset, as I understand it I need the same offset per axle?

Member Posts: 560 Group: Members Member #3,881 Joined: February 25, 2009	Just looked at my german paperwork and it states for my car mentioned above that the 'Offset should be 44mm. but there was a 'facelift' around September time 89 and they could have altered from 41 to 44 then due to them fitting wider wheels 7J's and not 6 1/2's Edited by balamb37, Fri Aug 21, 2009 3:28 pm.

Undergraduate Student (BSc Mech Eng & Manufacturing) Posts: 195 Group: Members Member #3,534 Joined: November 23, 2008	Guys, I am having massive problems trying to locate this wheel. I am fed up with my car looking like a Beirut taxi with its spare wheel. Does anyone know of someone, or a company, who might have this wheel? I tried Mercman, but they have just moved to Cornwall and all their wheels are in a huge unorganized pile at the moment I am told. No listings on Ebay either Please help!
