w201 190d 2.5 turbo

OZ superleggera 01574252, bought from someone using them on a VW, 5/112 marked as ET35 and 8″ wide.
Compared to other ET35 8″ wide 17″ they did rub against the damper in a way the others of “identical” dimension didnt, so might be shape or something else, but would have guessed a ET of 40-45.

looking for bolts, according to google/people calling OZ 99% of all OZ wheels use tapered bolts, these and the two other sets ive seen dont.
Internet provided conflicting information about the correct radius, R12, R13, R14 to use.

Bought some different bolts, and used some valve-grinding paste to see the surface the different types of bolt had against the wheel.

  • M12 1.5 R12
  • M14 1.5 R12
  • M14 1.5 R13
  • M14 1.5 R14

M12 1.5 R12

 

M14 1.5 R12

 

M14 1.5 R13

 

 

M14 1.5 R14

R12 and R13 both seem to work fine, whereas R14 doesnt.
