Those wheels came stock on the GL trim level 240s in the 1980s, maybe early 90's. I have/had them on my 1983 245GL, 1984 244GL, 1984 245GL, 1986 244GL and 1988 244GL. Moved a set to my 1984 244DL for a while.

I like the look, but they are a PITA to get clean. The high-schooolers having a car wash hate the car.

The later years had a locating pin hole, look for it under the center cap.

If you must leave the car for a while, put the center caps inside.

Do not let any tire place install the center caps. There is a right way, using the wrong way can damage the gripping things, and re-adjusting them to grip tightly is a bothersome job.

Regards,


Bob
