Default Question regarding rims.

I saw a post in a ad and I was wondering if these rims will fit on my is 350. Here is a caption from the ad...


"I have up for sale my almost new Maya DTM wheels in black, these are a luxury 3piece wheel. They are 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear. They are staggered. Tires are fair, size is 265/30/19 & 245/35/19.Wheels are in excellent condition. They are coming off my 2005 Mercedes C230, the fitment is 5x114 bolt pattern."


Thank you..

Mercedes Benz cars use a 5 x 112 bolt pattern, while Toyota/Lexus uses 5 x 114.3 .

That guy doesn't even know what his rims' bolt pattern is.

I would steer clear of getting these rims.

maybe he had adapters. the bolt pattern and offset and all that should be stamped somewhere on the back of the rim. have him check it out.

Some of the custom rims didn't even have the offset stamp on it like iforged. Maya seem to be one of that kind (I'm not sure). If you can, go to that guys house or ask him to meet some where and try it on. I doubt that it would fit.

These were the exact rims I've been saving up for. The guy is selling it for 60% off MSRP plus tires. This is something I cant just pass up. But if the lugs don't fit, it doesn't fit. Thanks guys for the response, it sucks that im going to have to pass this deal up..
