I have this chrome foose speedster that was given to me by a friend with a mercedes. The bolt pattern is 5x114 (fits on the maxima). It has a tire on it in GREAT condition although im not positive on the size. The rear of the wheel appears to have hit a curb and has some curb rash but it holds air perfectly fine and is not visible unless you take the wheel off to see it.
i know this is a long shot but i figured i'd see if anyone is interested.

I would consider it for a 5th spare if the price is right.

the damage is nothing really, i just wanted to show it, i dont think it effects the integrity of the tire or wheel

name your price.

I doubt the ride would be too friendly with that rim. PM me if you dont sell it. Your positive it will fit a max? The Nissan and Mercedes bolt patterns are way different...

chillin014

iTrader: (67)

The mercedes bolt patterns are 5x114.3... and do you mean the ride wouldn't be friendly with that TIRE(not rim)?
I bolted this wheel on my maxima to make sure it fits...it does.
Ill let you know if it doesn't sell, I'm going to get a shipping quote today in the afternoon.

Most Benz patterns are 5x112. Yeah it may fit the max, just not correctly.

chillin014

iTrader: (67)

Hmm, thanks for the info, I am gonna check right now to confirm, you may be correct....

chillin014

i cant find much info on mercedes bolt patterns. I checked on lexus' bolt patterns for another set of wheels which were 5x114.3 and got them confused in my head. It does look like most mercedes bolt patterns are 5x112 but i cant find the bolt pattern ANYWHERE on the wheel, and measuring it isnt proving to be too accurate. Why do we have bolt patterns so damn close in size. It fit on my max and i just assumed it was 5x114.3. I'm gonna investigate some more.

If it fit on your max then it didn't come from a Benz. Simple as that. If you say it fits... it fits. How much are you wanting shipped?

chillin014

iTrader: (67)

The thing is, I took them off of a mercedes when i worked at discount tire. I will put it on my car tomorrow and look again at the fitment and ill take some pictures.
I kinda just want like 70 bucks plus shipping. The assembly weighs about 55 pounds.

im almost positive it was a benz and not a lexus, but i may be wrong. anyway, heres pictures of it mounted on the car, sitting flush with the hub and the studs sticking through the holes. will try to get discount tire to tell me tomorrow for sure.

this last picture is just comparison of my wheels.

EXCELLENT pics! Looks like it's 5x114.3. Does it look like the wheel will clean up nicely? I noticed what looked like some pitting.

A+ for the extra effort...

chillin014

iTrader: (67)

thanks. i mean, is there any possibility the bolt patterns could be that close? the wheel should clean up fine, i'll try tomorrow afternoon when the sun is out again. I never gave this wheel any attention before, its been sitting in my shop.
I dont mean to discourage you kcmaxx but if i get it confirmed that this is 5x114.3 bolt pattern im 99 percent sure its going to be sold to bl929, i just put him on hold because you brought it to my attention that it may not be 5x114.3.
i'll keep this thread updated though, im gonna go put the wheel in my trunk right now to bring to discount tomorrow.
thanks

Unfortunately, the wheel is 5x112 bolt pattern. I took it to discount tire and , that's what the gauge read. The guy at discount agreed that the bolt patterns are very close. The wheel fits, but as kcmaxx said it doesn't fit properly, the lug nuts dont seat against the insides of the "holes" evenly making for an unsafe mount. The difference is a matter of like 2 and a half milimeters which irritates me but it was my mistake for assuming it was 5x114.3.
I wouldn't reccommend putting this on your car. Ill have to try to sell this to someone with a mercedes or the correct bolt pattern. I'm actually surprised there was interest here on the forums.
Just out of curiosity, how much did you guys pay for your wheels?

KCMAXX

iTrader: (22)

Well... at least you figured it out before it was too late.
