  • 5X114 to 5x112

    sup yall! like the title says I have a set of mrr hr3s im wanting to put on my w210 (5x112). I have been reading around and some people say wobble nuts will work to help make this fit and others say no. Or am I better off just buying adapters that will allow me to use 5x114 wheels. sorry for the noob question

      OP, they will always work, not sometimes work. If you read previously someone state they wouldn't fit it was due to something else. Make sure the lug hole bore is wide enough to accommodate a 14mm shank diameter bolt. A lot of old 5x114.3 wheels utilize a 12mm shank bolt matching that of older japanese import cars. This can easily be fixed by taking a 5/8ths drill bit to the hole to open the bore. Secondly, be sure that the wheel is hubcentric, if the hub bore on the wheel is to large, be sure to use rings.

      Most wheels now utilize 14mm size bolts so you will probably just bolt it right up. The whole opening of the lug holes is normally for older wheels.

              I personally went with this company because they are local and cheap for wobble bolts. They have not given me a single problem in thousands of miles and when I looked they were much cheaper then anyone else. Be sure you have the correct size.

              Maximum guaranteed PCD variation on radius 1.2mm. With this bolt, you can use wheels with unified center bore for several applications. They can fit with a mobile conical washer which can keep the bolts axis perpendicular to the car flange while allowing radial displacement and a consequent PCD variation.

                  It would not, you need to match your car. Check the site I posted earlier, they probably have 12mm wobble bolts.
