Hi all,

Left the car (84 Merc 500SEC) in for a service yesterday. Ask mechanic to check why I was feeling at lot of vibrations when I go over 60 mph.

He told me that the wheels (Lorinzer alloys) do not actually fit the hubs and there should be plastic parts to make them fit but these are missing.

Does anyone know what these plastic parts he's referring to might be? Where might I get them?

Thanks in advance,

Les

Hi

I had the same problem with a previous car, i obtained the small plastic spacers from a alloy wheel shop (Wheel Mania), in fact they are so cheap i was given a set, hope this helps.
