please help with a 15" rim fit off a 300ce for 190e, I could REALLY use it!!!
ok, I bought a pair of rims, they are wrong for my car, so I need to sell them..
the wheel is: 5x112 Bolt pattern.
6.5J x 15 H2 ET48 is the exact rim detail
From what I gather, this is off a 1991 300CE but it's a guess from some ebay research I did...
I have a buyer interested but he has a 1993 190E
And his current steelie rim is: 6j x 15 H2 ET 49
Will this wheel fit ok???
He needs longer bolts.. for sure, since I took one tire and put
it on his car, and needed to use my bolts off my c230 2002 to get the right length. But when it went on, the middle "lip" just didn't seem to slide on as much as his, so the bolts might get too stressed?? I dunno. it went on and the tire moved fine without hitting shocks, drum, or e-brake and all. I just want to make sure it is safe for his car before I sell it to him... my main concern is if it "slid" in deep enough onto that middle round lip area where the tire can rest a bit with hand support before the lugs are thrown on. Maybe the mercedes they came off of had a longer round lip there, so they slid in deeper? it does slide on the 190e, just a VERY minute amount...

84 190E
should work and to make sure about the stud length simply push the wheel stud into the rim, the threaded bolt shank should project past the mounting face of the rim by about 15mm. Mb only has 3 types of stock wheel bolts used/fitted to the 190, 22mm (steelies) 29.9mm (190 era MB alloy), and the 39.9mm for the next generation MB alloys (like the more modern 202/203 and later 124). as long as the thread portion projects the 15mm there will be no problems with properly and safely mounting the wheels
