Lorinser LO Vintage Wheels for Mercedes- Full Restoration + New Chrome. This is a fully restored set of 4 Lorinser classic wheels for a Mercedes. These were removed from a W107 (pre-’86) and then fully restored. Here are the details. 16×8 et 11 front and rear, Backspacing = 4 15/16. Bolt Pattern = 5×112. Center Bore = 66.5mm. Made in West Germany by Rial in 1986. The restoration included the following. Chemical strip to remove old chrome. Mechanical trueing to repair minor bends and curb rash on a couple wheels. Curb rash blended away and shaped. Professional chroming and polishing of the MASSIVE FAT lip and entire center face. The pockets were coated with silver metallic paint. These pockets can be prepared and painted to match the color of your car or whatever color you choose. Installation of very good used Mercedes center caps. I have included at least 1 photo of each wheel so you can see all the details. This is about as good as you will find for restored vintage wheels. Note there are some very minor imperfections which an inevitable when restoring 30+ year old wheels. These flaws include the following. Several of the the pocket areas have mild running of the silver paint that was applied. One pocket has some thin paint in one small area. One small portion of one lip has some scuffs. The area is less than 1 long. These flaws are generally so small you can not see them beyond a few feet away. If you need more info let me know. Please don’t be confused by reflections of clouds in the photos. These are not flaws. I have spun each wheel on a balancer and verified that it is trued and straight. These are a top notch restoration. These are perfect for concours or restoration vehicle. No expense was spared in restoring these babies! You will not find a nicer set of these wheels! My understanding is that these fit the W107 (’72-85), W116, W123, and W126 cars. If you have anything else, you are on you own. Please research this issue using the specifications provided. The attached link discusses this model of Lorinser wheel. And includes some photos of Mercedes with some LOs. These wheels may require long lug bolts or studs and nuts, which are not included. You can evaluate tire size options at tirerack. Please inquire if you have interested (provide city and postal code), as the actual cost may be different than I have stated.
