FAQ
- What is the common lug pattern for the Mercedes C-Class T-Model (S203)?
- The typical lug pattern is 5x112 mm, meaning 5 lug nuts arranged on a 112 mm pitch circle diameter.
- Why is offset ET important for wheel fitment?
- Offset ET determines how the wheel sits relative to the suspension and fenders, affecting clearance and handling.
- Can I use wheels with a different center bore on the C-Class T-Model (S203)?
- Wheels with a smaller center bore generally won't fit properly, but larger center bores can use hub-centric rings for safe fitment.
