Wheel Interchangability

Post by M »

I am painfully aware that wheels off a 206 wont fit the BX - But does anyone know if the C2 15" rims are the same offset etc as the BX / Xantia / C5? (and thus will fit the Blingo)
Googled till my fingertips went black and fell off and still cant find a definitive answer anywhere.

Erm, I think they are the same...

Didn't Kitch have C2 VTS alloys on his BX??
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Bugger it - Im going to have a punt on a set on the bay then - near by to me. Been looking for a set of C5 "alloy" steelies without any joy. Bling currently sporting a bit of a mish mash of rimz thanks to SWMBO attempts at off roading.

C2's have a bigger offset than BX's, so you'll need spacers. I had the C2 GT alloys (16" VTR ones but in white) They did fit straight on, but they sat too far back in the arches and looked a bit cack. Martyn on the valver forum fitted some and got some spacers to make them sit right with total success IIRC.
