Fitting wheels on a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG
A Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG (1998–2000) uses a 5x112 PCD and a centre bore of 66.6 mm.
Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.
Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 66.6 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 66.6 mm.
Offset: the original is ET37. Compare your future wheel with the offset calculator (your vehicle is already selected) to see how many millimetres further in or out it will sit.
Fixings: thread M12x1.50. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
Tyres: original fitment is 195/65R15. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).
Vehicles with the same PCD and centre bore
Same 5x112 PCD and same 66.6 mm centre bore: wheels from these vehicles bolt on and centre on a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG without rings. Offset, width, diameter and caliper clearance still need checking.
These vehicles also use 5x112 but with a different centre bore: their wheels need a hub centric ring if their centre bore is larger than 66.6 mm, and will not fit if it is smaller.
What is the PCD of a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG?
A Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG (1998–2000) has a PCD of 5x112: 5 studs or bolts spaced around a circle 112 mm in diameter.
Does a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG need a hub centric ring?
The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG is 66.6 mm. A wheel with a larger centre bore is fitted with a hub centric ring that brings it down to the hub diameter. A wheel with a smaller centre bore cannot be fitted.
What offset (ET) for a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG?
The recorded original offset is ET37. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.
Which vehicles have the same PCD as a Mercedes C-Classe W202 C43 AMG?
With the same PCD (5x112) and the same centre bore (66.6 mm), these include: Mercedes E-Classe W214, Mercedes EQE, Mercedes C-Classe 206, Mercedes EQA. Offset, width and rim diameter still need checking for each vehicle.
