Hello all,
My good lady has bought a (newish) car (Citroen DS3), but sadly it hasn't got a spare wheel.
Does anyone have any kicking about is reasonable nick? Ideally after 2, as the parents have the same car too...
Much obliged Onne

Surely Citroen are 4x108? If that's the case, then I think VAG centre bore/offset will be the least of your worries.

Just looked it up, indeed 4x108, 65.1mm centre bore
Do these share it with anything else?

ford,peugeot,citreon,audi are all 4x108 but you'llhave to check centre bore,
|
|
theres more to life than mpg & to much power is just enough.

I have a couple of 4x108 steels (possibly with tyres too) but they're not spacesavers. Can't remember the exact width, but nothing too wide. Standard fit Citroen ZX ones. Any good?

I've got 2 106 Rallye space savers, one even has the anti theft device on.
Make me an offer??

Some days you just need to take a grinder to an inanimate object, just to make your day a tiny bit better!!

Cheers chaps, Wichard, they are probably too wide, can't fit anything much wider than 135 I think.
I am going past the scrappies tomorrow to have a look round, if I have no luck I'll let you know. Whereabouts in Lincs are you Loudandproud205?

only certain audi's are 108, wrong centre bore and offset most likely anyway.
which model DS3? as the brake sizes vary most need 15" minimum, you need to make sure the overall diameter is the same too.
standard original equipment is 3.5x15 ET15, cost £35 inc vat.
tyre size is 125 80 r15 and from a dealer will cost you 85 or 105, choice of michelin or conitnental.

Am in Market Rasen.
If you happen to be round this area feel free to try one to make sure.
I'll try find out what size brakes they will cover.

Came to conclusion there either 266s or 283s.
As a rule of thumb on other 4x108 cit/pug cars 14" will fit over 266s but require 15" for 283s
I'd try one see if they fit

They're the size of the brake calipers - 266mm and 283mm.

I'll have a measure tomorrow. I'd be very surprised if it they are the bigger ones though. Only a 1.6 NA
Can't get used to the over assisted brakes though, prefer the ones on the Benz!
