★ Top Answer
According to the manufacturer, the lug nut size for a Mercedes Sprinter is 19mm hex with an M14 X1.5 thread, 6 lug, 130mm bolt pattern in the front and 6 X205mm in the back. It's crucial to know this information when considering buying new rims, as you'll need to match the bolt pattern. The number 6 refers to the quantity of nuts on the wheel, and the bolt pattern diameter is 130mm. Ensuring the lug studs are secure and evenly stressed is important to avoid damaging the bolts or studs. It's recommended to use a torque of 154 ft.-lbs on the lug nuts. The cost of lug nuts can range from $5 to $15 for a set, depending on the brand and whether they are aftermarket.

Basically, the Sprinter uses bolts instead of nuts that are screwed into the hub. The size is M14x1.5, but the length of the bolts you require will vary depending on the type of wheels you are putting on. OEM steel, OEM alloy, and aftermarket alloy wheels each need different bolt lengths. If the bolts are too long, they could go all the way through and touch the parking brake mechanism, and if they are not long enough, they might not secure the wheel properly.
