Rim specs

Good Morning. How do i find out the specs for the current rim on my car. I would like to buy an equivalent aftermarket rim for a future spare tire. Thanks, Elliot

could look at https://www.wheel-size.com/

the thing is hard to get exactly the same as stock wheel.

Pay attention to:

center bore, offset, bolt seating type

Thanks, Getting a little complicated. I have a donut, but prefer a full sized spare. Had a wire in my new tire with less than 1000 miles. Couldn't go anywhere with the RF, but had full spare from previous e300.. Worked fine in 10 minutes. Dealer replaced tire. I had a plug kit for a NRF, but did not use.

If have the donut, why not just use it. I think you cannot really carry the full size spare in the trunk all the time, too big.

I guess that will have to be my plan. There isn't enough room for a full sized spare. Gone are the good old days. Thanks
