citroen aluminium steel looking wheels

[Deleted]

HI ALL
Ive heard that some citroen c2 c3 c5 etc steely wheels are actually aluminium not steel
i am trying to find some that are
4x108 stud 6.5j width 15" and 16" offset 26 center bore 65.1
i am trying to find the part number for 15" and 16" alloy wheel that looks like a steel wheel but is ally but it
MUST be this fitment size
i am after two 16" and two 15"
i definately know that c5 wheels are in that size etc as theres some on ebay
ive tried to ask some sellers to put a magnet on them to see if there steel or ally but they cant be bothered to
so if anyone has a c5 with steel looking 16" wheels
or knows anyone that may know etc
i would really appreciate some advise thanks very much in advance

Have you tried going to the main dealer and asking or checking their forecourt with a magnet?

I had some on my 106, they were Citroen c5 ones.

I paid £20 each at the time, but weeks later the price went right up.


The only aluminium ones I'm aware of are 15x6 et18. Part number 5401.Q8
They weighed absolutely sod all (4.7kg). Looked like this once I'd painted them white:

I nearly bought some of these from a friend of Kevfromwales last year. No idea if he still has them. We referred to them as 'stalloys', though that probably isn't their official designation ;D

[welshpug]

the only two I know of are from the early C5 in 15x6 ET18 4 stud

and the 607 in 16" and 5 stud.

[kevfromwales]

I have a set of 5, but they are all 15"

they are 4x108 - if you are interested in them just drop me a pm

I can double check what they were fitted to, but they came from varius scrapyard cars, so there might be a degree of guesswork

Wow, sprayed black and they would be perfect for a 924.

I quite like these, now if only they did them in my Legacy's size.

Those Vauxhall 5 spokes banded or reverse rimmed would be full of win.

[cobblers]

What PCD are vauxhalls this week?

[Dez]

those are 5x110. i wouldnt want any banded ones though, the centres are weak enough as they are. in-laws managed to bend one on a zafira hitting a not particularly large pothole at low speed, and apparently its a common problem as main stealers sell a lot of replacement ones.

i want a set of the stalloys so bad though, i don't even have a 4x108 car and am trying to think up what i can use some for!

5-stud ones are 5x110

[RobinJI]

Shame they're flimsy. Where do they bend? doesn't look like it'd be hard to add some strength with a rib down the back of each spoke, it'd just be a case of getting the balancing right. Although you'd loose brake clearance, which doesn't look great to start with.

Sorry to hi-jack the thread a little. I too wish I had something to put a set of the stalloys on, if only they did them in 13" and a smaller PCD.

I am also interested in these Kev.. C5 wheels on a BX seems fitting..

[Soopahfly]

The ones I linked to are Ford ones
And tell the MiL to not ram the car at kerbs

[kevfromwales]

8valvecavsri - I'll have a look at them, and get you as much info as I can, though it seems my set may be heading towards a certain bx...
(fully polished I hope rich?)

the 5 spoke steels wheels - afaik they are available in 5x110, 5x120 and definately in 5x108, as they are fitted to certain mondeo's - I'd absolutely LOVE a set to throw on my p100, but alas I cant find any
