Rims for the Mercedes Sprinter
The Mercedes Sprinter is one of the market's most used vans. Whether you drive a panel van, a minibus or a chassis cab, the Sprinter places high demands on the whole wheel setup. The wrong rim on a heavy van shows up quickly in wear, fuel consumption and, at worst, safety. Enter your registration number and we will show you straight away which rims fit your vehicle.
What should you consider when choosing rims for the Mercedes Sprinter?
The Mercedes Sprinter comes in many variants: short and long wheelbase, different roof heights and several weight classes. That affects which bolt pattern and which rim dimension applies. The Sprinter changed bolt pattern between the generations, so checking the model year before ordering matters. The ET value on the Sprinter is generally around ET60–ET66, which is high compared with passenger cars and pickups. That means the rim sits far into the arch, and if you choose too low an ET you risk the rim catching the brakes or suspension.
Bolt pattern and hub diameter on the Mercedes Sprinter
The right bolt pattern is the basic condition for a rim to fit. Here is what applies: Mercedes Sprinter (1995–2006): 5x130, hub diameter 84.1 mm. Mercedes Sprinter (2006–): 6x130, hub diameter 84.1 mm. The Sprinter moved from 5-bolt to 6-bolt with the second generation in 2006 – a common mistake when buying rims.

Which rim size fits the Mercedes Sprinter?
The original sizes vary by variant and model year: Sprinter 314 and 316 (light variants): 16–20 inches. Sprinter 416 and 516 (heavy variants): 16–20 inches. Sprinter with a twin-wheel rear axle: 16 inches. Most Sprinter variants run 16 inches from the factory. Many choose to go up to 17 or 18 inches for a slightly fuller look, but remember that load capacity always has to come first. Never choose a rim or tyre with a lower load rating than the original.
