Wheels Fitments?????

Hi Guys,

I just picked a nice set of 19" AMG replica none staggered with tires on it 245/45/19 for my car from local guy. Tires are almost new on it. He said they from his 2002 S500. When I tried to put on my car, I found out that lug bolts of my original wheel is too long. This sound kind of stupid but I have to ask you about it. What size of lug bolt should I get to fit with this new wheel? and where can I get from can some one point me to it and my last question is will this wheel works with my car 245/45/19. My original is 225/60/16. Thanks.

depends on the weather
your car uses a tire diameter of 26.7" and a 245/45-19 is 27.7" tall ... not a good fit

So not a good fit? Is it mean that my tire will rubbing wheel well or something else that I don't know yet. I have not install my wheels yet. Please let me what I should be aware of. Thanks.

245-40-19 is closer to your orig. tire diameter.

A lugbolt with 14mm (shank length) x 1.5mm (thread spacing) is typical OEM for Mercedes. Measure what you have and determine whether you have this size or something longer.
