new rims

I'm new to this mercedes world I have another questionthis time about rims. I want to give my 81 300 SD an updated look with 17" or 18" rims. Will any modern set of rims fit???

RE: new rims

You cannot fit just any rim but, there are many modern rims designed to fit our cars

You need a stud pattern of 5x112 and wheels with a reasonably low offset are better, somewhere around ET25 and below but, it varies with the width of the rim
You can have higher offset wheels but often you'll need spacers on the hubs for them to fit well
