I am looking for some help in locating wheel adapters for this set up.
The rims are OEM Mercedes 5 spoke with +35mm off set lugs are 5x112mm Not quite sure about the center core. but I have seen them on another smart... I think they look great. By the way the rims are 17x7.5 and I plan to run 205/40/17 tires.. I guess this will work. If anyone has had experiance with these rims or adapter please help me. Also if anyone knows of any problems running this set up let me know..
Aloha, Tim
Sorry not sure how to uplaod photos.. I will work on it.
Hello I finally figured it out here is the smart I found with the rims I would like to use...Does anyone know what size of Adapters where used to get this look? Any help would be great! I have seen all size adapters 15mm, 20mm, 25mm and 30mm my question is what size do I need?
Aloha, Tim
Here is another shot of the rim..I can't really tell what size tire they are running. I think 205/40/17 front and 215/40/17 rear... any suggestions? will my tires rub on the front? the rims are 7.5 inche wide. Any help will would be great.
Hi, i have 7.5 x 17" alloys ET45 with 195/40/17 all round with 3 to 5 stud adapters 20mm front 25mm rear and lowered on H&R springs this set up works perfectly IMO, so ET35 would make them stick out 10mm more, probably still be ok, its up to you.
