Alloy Wheel and Steel Wheels Do They Use The Same Bolts? (1 Viewer)

We didn't get extra bolts for ours, so I think they will be the same, but I did get one of these, and having trucks with alloy wheels and knowing how they stick I would say it's a puller to get the wheels off. Bob.

? Don't tell me I have that extra bit in the box that fits nothing, after spending hours looking where it goes. ? Bob

Have you checked your handbook ?
the merc handbook gives all the details.

I have lost my handbook, I think the dealer kept it because it was in German. ?? Bob.

On a Fiat the shoulder angle is the same for alloy & steel. Bolts for alloys are 2mm longer so fine for a steel spare.


Have you checked the load rating, most aftermarket wheels have a lower load rating than genuine Fiat ones so not suitable for a Motorhome.

Ok dilemma over Lenny is correct the existing bolts fit the steel. I have just been out and jacked up the Motorhome and put the steel wheel on and bolts. Took a pic with the steel fitted but only 2 bolts attached. Glad i found out now though rather than later. Thanks to all who responded.
