Any G series with 18 or 19 with space saver / donut / temporary spare?
Does anyone know of any G series cars that comes with a space saver (18 or 19)? Preferably steel.
I want to put together a space saver spare for my G42 M240. Therefore I am looking to identify a steel wheel (due to cost) in 18 or 19 to suit. Therefore it needs to suit: PCD = 5X112mm & CB = 66.6mm. Needs to be 3.5-4.5 wide to suite up to 155 tyre width. Not fussed by offset at this stage. If I can identify a G series car, I should then be able to find one at a car wrecker here in Australia easily I did this for my F22 M240 with a steel E series X5 18 wheel. Unfortunately G series cars have moved from a 120mm PCD to a 112mm PCD (I know in the US and UK there are a few companies selling kits at a reasonable price; but not in Australia). So far I have only found the following G series by trolling parts lists: PN36115A3E078 / 36112470249: 5BX19 ET:-2 19 Alloy wheel with 155/80R19 tyre for X5, X6, X7 and 7 series Just the wheel for this is 36116880744. Any help would be appreciated! |

I have a G30 that I ordered with the spare setup. Is that what you are looking for?

Thanks awesome info, cheers! Hadnt checked X3/X4. PNs and details are:
36116863416 EMERGENCY WHEEL, LIGHT ALLOY 4BX18 ET:-1 36112420121 same but with 135/80R18 tyre This will be perfect if I can track one down. Being 4" I can get a donut tyre in a suitable profile for the G42 M240 (eg T145/70R18). Unfortunately the X5 spare wheel is 5" and there is no donut tyre in a suitable profile for the G42 M240. Cheers again for the lead. |

The optional spare tire on the G20 was a reasonably priced option ($250 for tire, jack, etc), but I think I only ever saw about two cars on the lot that had it. They used a shelf that took up about 1/2 the trunk vertically and 2/3rds or more from side to side. Most folks thought that was too much space to lose.

Its proving that sourcing a G series 18/19 ~4 wide space saver spare in Australia is not easily. The OE 19 is about AUD1000 + a different tyre is required. Wreckers (dismantlers) in Aus dont seem to be coming across them; so not really available at a realistic price.
But Mercedes have a couple of options. The ML (& GLE) SUVs from the W163, W164 and W166 series (~97-19) came with a 18 steel 4 wide space saver with the required specs (PCD = 5X112mm & CB = 66.6mm.) The Mercedes part numbers are: A1634011102 = 18X4 ET00 A1644000002 = 18X4 ET40 Either offset should suit (since wheel width is only 4). Note this website lists all vehicles with PCD = 5X112mm & CB = 66.6mm: https://www.wheelfitment.eu/PCD/5x112%20/66.6.html |
