Fitment of wheels

Post by nindy »

I have seen these wheels for sale and wanted to know if they will fit they are mercedes fitment with 7.5j with 112 stud diameter, 17'' inch 5 stud. Will they need longer bolts and any spacers or need any work on them before i fit them ?

if they fit what size tyre should i go for 45 profile o r 50 ?

this is for my t 25 wich apparently has been lowered by 70 mm

read this for longer bolts story :D

as for whether they'd work otherwise, are the bolt holes for m12, or m14 bolts? if m12, then guess what? m14 bolts won't fit, so they'll need drilling.

also there's the size of the grease cap & large nut (indirectly) holding the drum on at the back to consider. is the centre hole in those wheels large enough?

read this lot. if you're still unclear, i reckon you shouldn't buy them :shock:
