Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class Wheels and Rims

Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class Aftermarket Wheel Fitment

The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class is the compact luxury SUV Mercedes built on the X204 chassis from 2010 through the 2015 model year. Mercedes renamed it the GLC-Class for the 2016 model year as part of the company-wide SUV rename (GLK became GLC, ML became GLE, GL became GLS), so the GLK nameplate is a closed historical range. In the U.S. market, the GLK was sold almost exclusively as the GLK 350 (gas) across the entire run, with a brief GLK 250 BlueTEC diesel offered for 2013-2015. The AMG-branded GLK 35 and the Edition 1 trims were not sold in the U.S. market. Element Wheels measures the GLK as a single platform: the 2010-2015 X204 GLK 350. Bolt pattern is 5x112 with a 66.56mm hub bore. Lug fastener is M14x1.5, lug bolt style (Mercedes uses a bolt that threads into the hub, not a stud with a separate lug nut). The GLK is an optional staggered fitment in our catalog. Factory wheels were square front and rear, but the chassis accommodates a staggered setup with wider rear wheels, and our measured fitment box covers both layouts. Aftermarket diameter window is 19-22 inch. Pick your fitment options below.

Find Your Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class Generation

The GLK ran as a single chassis (X204) from 2010 through 2015 in the U.S. market. Pick your trim to see wheels and rims that fit. Bolt pattern is 5x112 / 66.56mm CB on every GLK.

The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class Bolt Pattern

Every Mercedes-Benz GLK in our catalog uses 5x112 with a 66.56mm hub bore. That covers the X204 across its entire 2010-2015 U.S. market run, every model year. Mercedes used a single chassis for the GLK from launch to discontinuation. Lug fastener is M14x1.5 thread, lug bolt style.

The 5x112 / 66.56mm pattern is the universal modern Mercedes-Benz spec, shared with the C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, GLC, GLE, and GLS. A wheel built for one of these will bolt onto a GLK hub in stud pattern and centering, but the body geometry differs. The GLK is a tall, narrow compact SUV with a boxier upright body than the GLC successor. Wheel arch height and fender geometry are different from a C-Class sedan or even the post-2016 GLC. We track the GLK as its own platform with its own measured fitment data.

5x112 is NOT the same as 5x114.3 used on most Japanese cars. The two patterns sit roughly 2mm apart and are not interchangeable. Compare across the rest of the Mercedes-Benz lineup at our Mercedes-Benz wheels and rims hub, or check the GLC successor at /wheels/mercedes-benz/glc-class.

Why GLK Brake Clearance And Stagger Choice Matter

The U.S. market GLK shipped in a single brake tier: the standard GLK 350 package (also fitted to the GLK 250 BlueTEC diesel). There is no AMG-branded GLK in our catalog because the GLK 35 AMG was not sold in the U.S. The standard GLK brake fits an aftermarket diameter window of 19 inch minimum to 22 inch maximum. Below 19 inch risks contact with the front brake caliper. Above 22 inch typically requires fender clearance work and is not a build we measure for on this body. The GLK is an optional staggered fitment, meaning factory wheels were square front and rear but the chassis was engineered to accept a wider rear wheel for a more aggressive stance. Our measured fitment box covers both layouts: 8-9 inch front width, 9-10 inch rear width, with the rear offset window biased a few millimeters higher to keep the wider wheel tucked inside the fender.

Every wheel we recommend is backed by our Fitment Guarantee. If a wheel does not fit, we pick up the wheels and refund 100 percent. No risk to you.

How We Confirm Fitment on Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class Wheels

Element Wheels measures fitment on the platforms we sell wheels for, including the GLK across its 2010-2015 run. For the GLK that means clearance from the wheel to the fender on a tall, narrow compact SUV body, gap between the back of the wheel and the front suspension components, brake caliper height on the standard GLK 350 package, hub bore confirmation on the 66.56mm Mercedes hub, lug bolt seat depth for the M14x1.5 lug bolt, and the optional staggered rear fender clearance for the wider rear wheel. At our fitment facility in Chandler, Arizona, the Element Wheels team measures directly on the physical platforms we support. We don't pull specs from manufacturer sheets the way most retailers do.
