1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL needs a 5x112 bolt pattern wheel. The car rolled off the line on 15x6.5 wheels with a 33mm offset. You can upsize to 15x7, 16x7, 16x7.5, 17x7, or 17x7.5 while maintaining that classic European roadster stance without going square or staggered.
Keep in mind that only the 5x112 bolt pattern will fit this Mercedes—nothing else threads on. The hub-centric bore measures 66.6mm, so if your chosen wheel has a larger center bore, we'll supply hub-centric rings to ensure a perfect fit. Pushing too wide or too far into negative offset can invite rubbing against the fender and suspension components, so stick with the compatible sizes listed above.
Every wheel we offer for your 560SL is verified to bolt straight on and ships free to the lower 48 states. Browse our in-stock Heritage Wheel, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, and other premium brands to find the right look for your classic convertible.
