Roger,

I have a similar set of Mercedes wheels from my brother, 6.5J x 15H2,
ET48. They look great and I would love to use them, but I havn't found a
place that will make the spacers. I've sent out a couple of emails
asking for them, but no reply. I tried the 'lugnutking@msn.com' and I
tried another place, but I don't recall their name.

Subject: Mercedes rims ET48 - bad idea?

Hello all,

I have an opportunity to buy a set of Mercedes rims for my 87 Westy. I
understand that my stock wheel is offset ET35.  These are ET48.  If I
understand correctly this means these rims sit 13 mm inboard more than
stock.  Is that an excessive amount?  Would I need spacers to move them
outboard?

Thanks in advance,
-Roger Donahe
