Am I right in thinking the smallest wheel to get over dturbo brakes are 14"
My 13's just aren't big enough!
If so, anyone have a set?

Xud DTurbo brakes were shitty 247s, they were also fitted to 1.4s with 13" steels...
If you've got 266s from a hdi/xsi etc you need 14s...

Im pretty sure 13" will go over the d turbo 247mm brakes but think it needs to be 13" wheels off a 306 as they are different to 205 1s.

bolt pattern yes, offset not so much, they tend to be deeper.

How do you think they'll do on the 205?

306 or xsara wheels are more suitable

Without paying through the teeth for them... Living on an island also, postage etc, most won't do it.
I'm going to have a look at these wheels tomorrow, sure they should be fine
