Wheel construction and parameters

The wheel is manufactured as a 5-spoke alloy rim, which provides a balanced compromise between rigidity and curb weight. The applied spoke geometry promotes even load distribution during driving, braking, and traversing uneven surfaces, which translates into stable vehicle handling.

The dimensional parameters of the wheel are adapted to typical axle configurations in Mercedes W213 models, ensuring the rim works correctly with the suspension system, brakes, and wheel arch. A properly selected offset supports correct wheel seating in the wheel arch, minimizing the risk of rubbing against suspension or body components when using correctly sized tires.

Compatibility with the running gear

The bolt pattern and number of mounting holes are designed for typical Mercedes hubs, which facilitates installation and ensures proper centering of the wheel on the hub. This configuration allows for the safe transfer of torque and lateral forces, which is important both in daily operation and during more dynamic driving.

This type of alloy wheel works well with factory safety systems, such as ABS or ESP, because it maintains the wheel geometry intended by the manufacturer. As a result, electronic systems receive correct data, and the vehicle maintains predictable reactions to steering inputs and braking.

Functional and visual features

The five-spoke design of the wheel gives the car a consistent, elegant look, characteristic of the Mercedes W213 styling. At the same time, this spoke layout facilitates access to brake system components, which is helpful during service and when checking the condition of discs and pads.

The aluminum construction helps reduce unsprung mass compared to classic steel wheels, which can positively affect ride comfort and suspension response. For many users, it is also important that an original wheel from this series allows for maintaining a uniform look of the wheel set, especially when replacing a single rim after damage.

Condition, origin, and application

The wheel is offered as a used component, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. It is a good choice in situations where one of the rims on the vehicle has suffered mechanical damage or when you are planning to replace a set with an alloy configuration consistent with factory standards.

The original origin from the Mercedes range promotes proper fitment to the hub, mounting bolts, and other wheels on the vehicle. This helps avoid problems typical of random replacements, such as improper seating, vibrations, or difficulties with balancing.
