Wheel bolt length

[twice]

Hi,

I have just managed to get a set of alloys for winter tires for my father's facelift W203 sedan.
The rims are originally for the 211 series; but fit nicely to the C class as well, although the bolt length is not the same as for the original wheels on the car.

Could anyone please give me an advise on the required bolt sizes for these A2114014202 (B66474227) alloys?

Thanks,
Attila

Do anyone have any ideas on this please?

Take off an original wheel...measure the bolt sticking out the back...then do the same with the new wheels...you will have your answer. Sometimes it is best to do the obvious thing.

Technically you need some pretty specialist bolts. Your car has M12 bolts and the 211 has M14 bolts. Meaning the seat head is a different size/fitment.

I think alloywheelsdirect will be able to supply you the correct ones. He used to have them in stock anyway.

Thanks for this info; I have never thought of this difference in bolt sizes.
I have already found these kind of bolts on alloywheelsdirect WEB site.

Thanks again,
Attila

As V12 said, ensure you have bolts with the correct seat head/ neck on them.
Also ensure that the bolts make at least 6-7 revolutions when screwing them in and you should be cool.
But also sure they are not too long, as the may come into contact with the parking brake mechanism at the rears.
