Yes 5/112, they vary a bit depending on model, are 14" or 16" for the Syncro 16 and have an ET of between 32 and 37 I think.
15" Merc wheels:-
Mercedes Part Number: 210400 0202 off C-class.
6.5J x 15H2 ET37
Mercedes Part Number: 2034000002 off C-class
Size : 6J X 15 ET31 (not wide enough for more than 195/205s IMHO)
Some others up to 7" will fit OK, poss some off an E class too

Thanx, Rob
It is 5/112 should have an et of 30-40. Most audi wheels have an et 40+ but this can be fixed with a spacer. Merc wheels are more et friendly and the centre bore does not need enlarging.

Sounds good... there's always plenty of nice Merc rims on ebay
Anybody ever fit Porsche rims to T25s? Ive got some nice 928 slots and H&R make the 5/112-5/130 adapters...
Probably more of a Golf thing...

Haha, guess youre not a fan of the look?!
im just thinking about new rims for the TriStar... The 14" steelies on it are lookin well ruff and ive got some of those 928slots ready to put on a car! It will need some new wheels at some point, im unsure wot to put on it, but im not lookin at off-roading it so why not try summat different? Ive always enjoyed the VW/Porsche OEM look... But as i mentioned before, it maybe doesnt fit the T25 look but who's to say?
Wot u guys think?

just fitted merc c class steelies (210 part # and 37mm ET) no probs , go straight on using vw nuts/bolts. only 'problem' is minimal clearance between rim and top balljoint.(a few mm) if you have the type of blance weights that attach to rim make sure none are placed on inner rim as they will foul , annoy the chuff out of you , think u have put wheels on wrong , get hammer out and knock weights off , get sticky weights put onto inside of rim instead

Someone created it on photoshop over four years ago and named it tyger; its existence has now become a popular myth

Clive .... if tyger does exist and it has those wheels on it , I have a single alloy off the Audi 200 with the bore machined out sitting in my shed which you can have if you want.

Thanks Andrew, it does (exist), though you'll have to get to another SN event to deliver it... an incentive, or maybe not?
Or next time we're in Ireland
