Glad you're happy mate, and thanks for mentioning me by name, its a great feeling when a person comes back and says thanks. How about a picture of your alloys on the Galaxy? hi. will upload picture as soon as i got the final touch :( thanx again..

hi. got my wheels on! happy to roll on aloys! many thanx to the forum.. specially to saif who help me a lot... :unsure:

hi. noticed that when i turn the key on just before starting tempreture and engine warning light blinks 3 - 4 times and steady, after starting car lights swich off, which i know its normal, note: not all the time light blink?. couple of times today car hesitate to fire up on the first time, but will fire no problem on second try. when this is happening feel like starter motor is turning but not cranking the engine, ( just a feeling of starter motor not connected to engine sounds weird but thats what i feel) but will crank and start on the second time. anyone have idea whats going on? thanx

hi. finally got the set of wheels. ordered the spigot rings and as mentioned i took one bolt off the galaxy and tried it on the aloy wheels to get measurement. it turned out that the bore on the steel wheels are thicker than the aloys, meaning bolts will be longer by 6-8mm for the aloys. is this going to be alright? or i need shorter bolts hope not! :rolleyes: . by the way exited to have it fitted and have a spin!

hi. got another q. do i need to replace all old bolts, say longer ones to fit the mercedes wheels? thanx

super! one last q. so the wheels im reffering to you ( e class wheels ) will fit my galaxy, just need a spigot ring? and again super thanx to you saif! and to the furom... will let you know result and will include picture if i got lucky

hi. yes i asked the seller and gave me this wheel info 7 1/2j x 16 h2 et 42 tire size 225/55r16 99vxl and the car off mercedes e class thats the only info he gave me. cross ref. the car on the link you gave me and e class have 5x112. gooled the wheel info for comparison but no luck. need help wheels will end 2days from now. thanx again!

As long as the pcd and offset (35-45) are correct with a bore size of 57.1, then the 16" or 17" will go on no problem. There are some cars with these sizes for example Audi's and Mercedes but not all models. A few members on here have the 17" from the Audi A4 and A6 on the Galaxy's and they look nice. Try this link for an idea of what cars are suitable. (Just have the volume turned down when you go to the website though!!) hi again and thanx for the link lots of info. Q. is saw this set of mercedes wheels on ebay with good tire (99xl) but seller just gave me wheel info of 7 1/2 x 16 h2 et42 i know its 16" offset 42. my worries is the stud patern and bore diameter. need help badly thanx and regards

thats great! thanx
