They are much lighter and easier to carry around. They usually came on
all the 240D's after about 1980 or so. Bascially anything that didnt
have bundts.

Just curious... does anyone know anything about the aluminum rims
that some W123s came with, what year, good and bad points?? I don't
mean the alloy "Bundts" we are all familiar with, these Aluminum rims
look just like the steel ones but have four "dabs" of white paint and
are way lighter. I put a set off a parts car on my "79" 240D and I
swear, I can tell the difference.
