Everything below is what the fit-check uses for Mercedes C Class wheel fitment: the factory bolt spec first, then the width and offset window that clears the arches and the brakes on the Mercedes C204/205 4matic Phev.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |
| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 120 Nm |

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7J–8.5J | ET18–ET49 |
| Rear (staggered) | 8.5J–10J | ET23–ET56 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8 to 10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
