Mercedes SLK/W124 15" wheels

Post by Phil D »

Have the opportunity to buy a set of wheels and tyres locally off a mercedes SLK/W124 E class. They are 7J ET37, 15 inch 5x112 there is a difficult to read number A170 401 0002 (this might not be correct). The tyres are 205/60R15 they have a load rating of 615kg but are not extra load rated. Cannot find a load rating for the wheel. The centr bore measures just over 66mm and should clear the hub cap. Bit worried about the 7J width and the ET37 combination but a spacer should correct this problem and clear the front suspension. Bolt holes are radiused seats but might not be M14 forgot to take a stud with me to check. I have read the Brickwerks blog on wheels and looked on here for advice but i realise this area is a minefield and would welcome any advice from soneone who knows more than me!
Cheers,
Phil

Thought i had covered everything but then spotted that the bolts for SLK wheels are M12 not M14. As i just want wheels that fit without modifications i have decided not to purchase these wheels. Still looking at caravan wheels!
