Lovely car! so clean. Love the idea of retro fitting dog bowls, Im thinking getting some 16s smoothies made up for my w115 and was ganna refit the dog bowls into them but looking at your dog bowls did you trim your oem hubcap down to make them or did you buy the original dog bowls?

I have not finished the 16", but the plan is to use some old school Mercedes oem dog bowl hub cap centers with them.

Like this ......

The dog bowls you have look different to the dog bowls I've seen, yours look more flat and less pointed. I only ask because with the picture you used it looks like you cut them out of the old hubcaps.

I the wheel only photo that is just a stock dog bowl cap, I am not using the outside ring that is a separate piece.

The latest photo of what is on the car right now is a set of rare oem 14" light weight alloy rims with the stock hub caps on them.

Hey Karl, Love what you've done to the W114. Your dog dish wheels have a lot of promise. I've searched around and not seen any images of the new wheel set-up on your car. Have you completed it yet? Ever since seeing this thread, I've been watching craigslist and waiting to pounce on some lightweight CLK wheels. Thanks!
