A Smart Roadster Front (2003–2006) uses a 3x112.5 PCD and a centre bore of 57.1 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 57.1 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 57.1 mm.
Offset: the original is ET24. 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, tightened to 120 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
Tyres: original fitment is 185/55R15. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).
Vehicles with the same PCD and centre bore
Same 3x112.5 PCD and same 57.1 mm centre bore: wheels from these vehicles bolt on and centre on a Smart Roadster Front without rings. Offset, width, diameter and caliper clearance still need checking.
A Smart Roadster Front (2003–2006) has a PCD of 3x112.5: 3 studs or bolts spaced around a circle 112.5 mm in diameter.
Does a Smart Roadster Front need a hub centric ring?
The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Smart Roadster Front is 57.1 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 Smart Roadster Front?
The recorded original offset is ET24. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.
What tightening torque for the wheels of a Smart Roadster Front?
The specified tightening torque is 120 Nm for M12x1.50 fixings. Tighten in a criss-cross pattern with a torque wrench and check the tightness again after about fifty kilometres.
Which vehicles have the same PCD as a Smart Roadster Front?
With the same PCD (3x112.5) and the same centre bore (57.1 mm), these include: Smart Roadster Back. Offset, width and rim diameter still need checking for each vehicle.
