HiI all we have a 2019 Burstner on the Fiat heavy chassis. Currently have alloy wheels, as it came with no spare I have bought a steel wheel and tyre . Are the wheel bolts the same profile or different please on 225/75/r16.

They are the same profile but about 2mm longer on some chassis they will foul on the rear with steel wheels. To be safe I would carry a set of the correct bolts for the spare.

The studs can differ in length on some makes! They do on a Mercedes Sprinter and I got the info from
owner’s hand book.( They also have a different torque setting for steel wheels)
Bought a set of studs-for steel wheels from Mercedes main dealers for about £15.00 quid and keep them in the van.

They could be different, mine were as I found out on a campsite in Germany a few years ago when I put the spare steel wheel on. They were too long and stopped the wheel going round.
