where can we buy new rims for our w113 cars?----------------i have a tire that keeps losing air-its not the tire or valve-I'm thinkin git may be the rim-are these rims metric and do they need a metric tire to match-what size?

1970 280SL. System Admin of the site. Please do not mail or PM me questions on Pagoda's... I'm not likely to know the answer.  Please post on the forum instead!

I have three 280sl rims that won't work on my 230sl with the small hub caps.  You can have one or all for the cost of shipping.
