More modern rims

I am not stating you are wrong about the rims on your car but I would never trust a physical measurement of the rim to know the width. Measuring between the wrong points can easily add 0.5" to the measurement. What markings are on the rim? These will tell you exactly what size rims you have.

My quick googling shows that W123 14" rims were either 14x5.5 or 14x6.0.

It is important knowing what size rims you have so you don't put tires on them that simply don't fit. Nothing worse than having a tire come off its rim while driving.
