Citroen wheels on an E30?

[Zayyan]

Just wondering, I have a ZX outside that's a bit broken and if I can't fix it (off to give it a go in a little bit but it doesn't look good ) would I be able to stick the (very thin ) wheels on the back of the E30?

I really know fuck all about wheels so don't laugh, all I know is they're 4 stud!

[dazleeds]

eerrrrrrrrrrrrr nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

surely your not that bored mate

[Zayyan]

Steelies = fun though!

What needs to be right except offset (which I know nothing about)?

[dazleeds]

not sure mate if you just wanna burn em up fling one on and see if it fits snug and the bolts go in straight if they do go for it mate

doubt theyll last long tho

[Zayyan]

Is it really that simple? I thought you had to ensure a few things to make sure they don't fall off for example!

Oh and they won't last long, trust me

[dazleeds]

dnt see why not???

wouldnt use em daily tyres but just to kill as long as theyre on securely and sitting straight should be ok Daz

[Zayyan]

Yeah I'm just planning to kill them

If I can't fix the ZX though how can I get rid of it without paying?

Someone's offered to take it to a quiet road and set it on fire for me, but I don't think that's the best way

[dazleeds]

drain all fluids and tow it to local weighbridge i do up here and get bout Ԛ£30/Ԛ£40 a car

get them tyres killled mate

[Zayyan]

You get given money to scrap a car?

That's good news, I thought you had to pay these days

[dazleeds]

scrapyard wnt pay you a penny but as far as i know all local authority weighbridges do mate look in tellow pages give em a bell and check but they pay here also 3.50/4quid per alloy in any condition with tyre off got bout 12bottletops here there goin soon

only downside is must be no fluids at all in car and will need towing to get it theyre when i cnt be arsed i just giv em to mate with truck so costs sodall he gets the scrap ash for his troubles

[Zayyan]

Nice one cheers for the advice Daz

[dazleeds]

pages flicker franticly

[Zayyan]

Haven't found it yet!

Think my dad might've taken it to his office at work

[Zayyan]

Gonna try yell.com but I don't really know what I'm meant to be searching for!

[stevo]

sorry mate, dont think the wheels will fit, im assuming citroen have the same wheel pattern as pugs which is the same as ford , and they dont fit
have a try anyway, i could be (and usually am!) wrong

[Zayyan]

Cheers for that stevo, I will give it a try if I can't fix the bugger.

I've just realised I'm sure I'll find some twat in my local McDonalds car park one evening that I can sell the wheels to, as a backup plan

dude!!! think stevo is right and the sh!tron will have the 4x113mm PCD as favoured by Fraud too.

worst comes to the worst tho, and any tyre place will remove them from the citroen rims and fit them to bmw steelies for about Ԛ£5 a tyre

[Bob_S]

ford shitroen etc are 4x108 not 113

[320Touring]

ford sh*t etc are 4x108 not 113

whats 4mm between friends!!!!

thanks for the info tho dude-now stored away!

[Geeman]

Pug = Citroen = Ford = Saab

VW = BMW = Mini(new) = Vauxhall (4 stud of course)

[Stoney_god]

got a set of lush 2CV rims sitting at the bottom of my old mans garden complete with 125x15 tyres.

Now that'll be a challenging drive.. Hmmm grip !!

I'd heard scrap value is on the increase as China can't get enough of the stuff.

I'm pretty sure the advertising in practical performance car is free so you could advertise it for free and sell it for a tenner or something if you just want rid
