Rare 17 AMG Mercedes w124 t124 c124 E36 3.4 amg HWA1244010302 square seT wheels​ ​ Set of four wheels​ ​ Specs : 7.5 x 17 et 42.​ ​ Worldwide economy shipping without tires from Japan.​

I wouldn't normally take notice, but these are rare to the USA, a square 17 inch set specific to Non-E500E 124's

I picked up a set of these a couple of years ago, and have them ,mounted on our 94 E420, perfect fit, HWA1244010302
.
The shipping charge seems a little high, if I were to buy these I would negotiate removing the tires before shipment.

no affiliation and don't know the seller, it could be worth an eBay message to the seller

I bought a set of wheels off this guy in the middle February and they should finally arrive this week.

Sadly he didn’t say they $450 shipping charge is for the slow boat.

Although I did offer 40% off asking price of the wheels and he accepted. I’ll let you know how the condition and packing job are once I receive them.

Hello @kegmankipp -- Any further information on above. I think I'm working with the same seller (in Japan) on the same type of shipping arrangement (450 bucks for 2 mos of boat time)... and wanted to understand what happened w/ your wheels, did they arrive / not arrive / were they damaged? He's sold on Ebay and on BringATrailer recently I believe. Thanks for any insights.

They finally arrived almost 4 months later. Way past eBay and PayPal claim period.

They were Not the same exact wheels pictured in eBay auction. Same type but painted with a rattle can over dirty mud covered wheeels.

They were Out of round so bad on two of them that the refinishing shop couldn’t repair them enough to machine finish the lips.

Total waste of time and money.

I hope your results are better than mine.

Glad I found this and asked. Thanks for the insights.
