Hi , I have put 16s on my vts and thats fits with no probs height wise but the width was a problem and I had to buy spacers as it was rubbing on the inside. stick to 195 if you dont want that prob and any 16s should fit. Hope this helps.

 

by the way if you do go for spacers make sure they aren't the universal ones unless you like being shook to death, go for bolted on spacers made for citroens.

many thanks for the reply

 

may have made a big mistake today i have bought some alloys made to fit ford escort but i know there the right stud patern

 

i have worked out that ford wheels are usually about 38 offset and i think the xsara is about 20 offset?

 

is this correct

 

if it is correct can i get 20mm spacers as this seems rather big ?

 

the bore size doesnt matter as the alloys have a removable ring so it will fit bigger bore hubs

many thanks in advance
