:lol:

Isn't it more to do with the differences in offsets as opposed to the diameters?

I've searched before and I did again last night for you.

... Nobody knows the answer lol.

You see threads of people saying look the caps from my 17's don't fit my 15's, but there's absolutely no mention of the widths and offsets (The most important criteria). So for all we know two rims of different diameters but of the same (or similar) width and offset might fit.

What size (diameter, width and offset) SA3R's do you have, and what does Merc have?

A sign I should have sold my SA3R's without the caps?

centres have nothing to do with offsets, As the wheel itself is always the same its the hoop that varies if you get what i mean
