Wheel Balance Solid Hub C5

[rammfam]

GETTING MY C5 ESTATE ALLOY  WHEELS BALANCED PROVED A PROBLEM AS THEY HAVE SOLID HUD (ie NO HOLE IN MIDDLE ) AFTER  CONTACTING COUNTLESS TYRE FITTERS, ASKED A MAIN DEALER NEAR BASILDON ESSEX AND WAS QUOTED £17.50 PER WHEEL, (MY LOCAL CHARGES £6 FOR STANDARD WHEELS ) THEN FOUND .........NATIONAL TYRES BRAINTREE     OPP LIDL SUPERMARKET  HAD A 20 WANDER AROUND THAT AND ALL DONE  Â£7. 50 PER WHEEL HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE ELSE.

PS NOT ALL NATIONAL TYRES HAVE THE ADAPTER

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the information, our previous C5 had the solid wheels and when phoning for tyre prices I would ask if the tyre fitters had an adaptor, and as you say, not many do.
