1996 Mercedes-Benz S320 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1996 Mercedes-Benz S320 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern across both LWB and SWB trims. The factory setup runs 16x7.5 front and 16x8 rear, each at 51-millimeter offset. You can upsize to 17-inch or 18-inch wheels while maintaining the staggered setup, or jump to 19-inch fitments like our 19x10 option, which preserves the classic Mercedes stance.
Keep in mind that only the 5x112 bolt pattern will fit your S320—no other patterns work here. The hub requires a 66.6-millimeter center bore; if your wheel's bore measures larger, hub-centric rings are essential for a safe, vibration-free fit. Aggressive offsets or excessively wide wheels risk rubbing the fenders and suspension, so stay within our tested compatible sizes to avoid costly trimming or modification.
Every wheel we list bolts directly onto your S320 and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. We stock Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, Niche 1PC, Petrol, Rotiform 1PC, and MRR—all verified to fit your specific fitment.
