17" Wheels for Citigo

[Tim1631]

Hi,

I know the Citigo wheel is 4x100 but what ET etc will I have to get?

Thanks

Tim

Go for it mate!

I consider 17s too big for the Citigo but it is horses for courses. I think lowering the suspension so that the wheels fill the arches is more important. 16s with a width/offset to get the edge of the wheel in line with the edge of the wheel arch (but without it making contact) is a better look than simply bigger wheels.

Oh I wouldn't. They're just too big. 16,s would be enough.

7J rim with ET35 would probably be a good starting point

[tweenster]

7J  with ET35 would have the outer rim 25.1mm further out and the inner rim 13.1mm closer to the suspension strut (when compared to standard 5.5" x 15" Monte Carlo wheels. Should be about right I reckon.The issue with 7" x 17" wheels is that they are likely to be significantly heavier than the 5.5" x 15" wheel/tyre combo and with only 60bhp you don't want to penalise the little blighter any more. So a decent lightweight rim is also a must.

Defo light weight is the way to go. Personally I feel it's too big for the 60bhp (or 75). But go for it.....probably will look cool.

I have a new engine on order and need 17's for the HiSpec brakes that are from a mk4 Golf to fit under them. 16's are perfect if keeping small brakes

I look forward to seeing the progress on this; should be good.
