a "will it fit" wheel question....

Post by bootscooter »

wheels are ET35 7Jx16H2 195x45xR16, the seller says...... for vauxhall Zafira. Searched a bit anf it seeems Zafiras are pcd 5 x 110. Can they be made to fit easily, or are adapter plates required?

Cheers, Jon

No.........112 is the correct pcd not 110.

You would definately need adaptor plates to go from 112 - 110pcd, at about £150 these really push the price up not to mention the fact that they will also push the rims out closer to the arches. I've been doing some research into wheel fitments recently and it seems merc rims are the way to go. They are 112pcd and already have a centre bore large enough to fit over the front hub.

Depends on the Merc that they're off.

Also beware of A-Class and Vito rims, which have an ET of 60, rather than the required 30-40.

From looking at this link:

http://www.leightyres.co.uk/catalog/fitment.php

it seems just about all merc rims have a 66.5mm centre bore
