Kozuka's Death-Cab
(03-28-2013, 12:04 AM)Kozuka I thought they were made by ATS at least I think mine are,Ahh, from what I hear the ATS are cast instead of forged, I believe the situation with the ATS version of the bundt is that it was never fitted as original equipment on any Merc (except maybe early w201s), but it did become the factory replacement part.
(03-27-2013, 08:50 AM)maxypriestOk, might not be companies, might be back yard butchers but only a few weeks ago there were several sellers selling a bunch of them on ebay for around 2-3 grand a set, they seem to be gone now.(03-27-2013, 02:25 AM)Eric78(03-27-2013, 02:14 AM)maxypriest Hold on, sorry to throw a curve ball in there but are you are replacing those old school forged Fuchs wheels with those rims?!
The Fuchs' were probably 14s, they did make 15s but they are rare & pricey, there are also a few companies now taking the centres out of damaged Fuchs' & using them to make 16 & 17 inch 3-piece wheels but those are expensive too.
"a few companies now taking the centres out of damaged Fuchs' & using them to make 16 & 17 inch 3-piece wheels" wow!!! who are they?!
