[W126 Coupe] 560SEC offsets

[Marcus Johnson]

Hi Mike,

I don't have an offset calc available but after looking through the  
archives for ages and trying to figure the whole thing out, I ended up  
taking the wheel guy's recommendation that they would fit and they did.

I have 18 x 8.5's on the front and 18 x 10's on the rear.

No rubbing unless I hit a really big hole on the back right.

For everyday driving on less than perfect roads, no problems.

It's a 'suck it and see' proposition.

Also, my feeling is that there isn't any really discernible difference  
with the 18's from 17's.

Smaller sidewall = harder ride. A reasonable compromise for looking  
cool.
