Mercedes A Class wheel fitment
Start with the hub. The Mercedes A Class 176, 245G spec table gives the bolt pattern and bore; the second table is the aftermarket window for Mercedes A Class wheel fitment.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |
| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 125 Nm |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | direct |
| Run-flat | Yes |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–9J | ET34–ET53 |
Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
