Rim size

(30-01-2019, 01:31 PM)mrcruise84 Wrote: What is the ideal rim size for a 1997 Peugeot 306 Roadster? I am currently online window shopping for one and I am wondering if this 14-inch Fuel Rims will fit my roadster. 

For reference

15" Cyclone Alloys
6Jx15 ET19 with a PCD of 4x108 with 195/55R15 tyres

14" Steels
5.5Jx14 ET24 with a PCD of 4x108 with 185/65R14 tyres

Explanation of the above in case you're unsure
6J = Width of the wheel | 6 Inches
15 = Radius/ size of the wheel | 15 Inches
ET19 = Offset of the wheel (see image below) | 19mm in front of the center line of the barrel (19mm positive offset the rightmost wheel in the image below)
PCD 4x108 = Bolt hole details | 4 wheel bolt holes at 108mm apart from each other
195/55R15 = Tyre size | Tyre is 195mm wide with a sidewall that is 55% of the width of the tyre so (55% of 195mm) 107.25mm with a radius of 15" to match the wheel

Your best bet is to look at you current wheel and tyre setup the go to https://www.willtheyfit.com/ and enter the details of your current wheels and compare them to the details of the set you're looking at buying (if you don't want to look at your own wheels or can't find details of the wheel size simply enter either of the specs above)

I'm not sure what brakes the 1997 cabs have but I don't think 14" wheels will clear 283mm gti6 brakes, they might clear 247mm hdi brakes but brake clearance will probably be your biggest concern going for a 14" wheel someone correct me if I'm wrong and I'll edit the post

Personally I'd go for a 15" wheel just so there's a lot lower chance of them having clearance issues, also allows you to get gti6 brakes later on down the line if you ever feel like it, if you're set on 14's I'd want to double triple check they'd clear the brakes before buying anything
