The Mercedes spacers are wheel accessories that create more space between brake rotors and the wheels. This allows you to add bigger brake calipers correctly. They also increase the track width, hence strengthening the grip. As the gripping power increases, the resistance to rollover enhances. You will experience better handling and more comfortable driving.
Many people wonder: “What size Mercedes spacers are the best?” Let’s answer first. For most OEM Mercedes-Benz cars, you can use 12mm to 20mm wheel spacers with no problem. If you change the wheels or tires, the recommended sizes may vary. This blog delves into the benefits of proper sizes and best selections to help you make a wise decision.
Best Mercedes Spacers Size Fitment Before and After
Whether you’re looking to fit a big brake kit or simply aiming to improve the wheel style and ride quality, installing the right-size Mercedes spacers is the easiest way to go. Depending on the wheels or applications, you can choose from 3mm to 50mm spacers. Here are the pros and cons of these sizes:
- 3mm to 10mm: Subtle changes. They provide enough space to clear big brake calipers. If you want to fit new wheels without significantly altering the wheel offset, then 3mm to 10mm Mercedes spacers are the option.
- 12mm to 25mm: Medium-sized Mercedes spacers are more popular for enthusiasts who want to achieve a perfect flush wheel stance. You can notice an obvious enhancement in the vehicle’s handling, particularly when cornering.
- 30mm to 50mm: More aggressive stance. They are usually used for specialized wide-body applications. By increasing the track width, these Mercedes 2-inch wheel spacers help reduce body roll, which in turn leads to more comfortable driving.
Can I Use Universal Mercedes Spacers?
No, it is NOT recommended to use universal Mercedes spacers. Wheel spacer sizes have three measurements which are expressed like this: 5x112mm/ 66.5mm:
- The first measurement, e.g., 5, is the lug number of one wheel in millimeters.
- The second measurement, e.g., 112mm, is the pitch circle diameter of the wheel in millimeters (also called the PCD); in this case, it is 5x112mm.
- The third measurement is the center bore diameter of the wheel rim in millimeters (also called the CB), in this case, it is 66.5mm.
Therefore, if you need vehicle-specific wheel spacers, then you should choose 5×112 spacers with 66.5mm hub-centric rings.
