Spare wheel help.......... (1 Viewer)

[Hellski]

Hello all,

I've recently purchased a wheel from a great funster only to find it's not suitable; newbie mistake living and learning!!

I'm having a real issue finding a wheel suitable. The problem lies with me having a Fiat based M/H on the light chassis that's fitted with 16" alloy wheels. I now know from my school boy error that they are 118pcd not 130pcd

Searching for a suitable replacement, I'm constantly hitting a brick wall Nobody seems to realise that Fiat are now fitting 16" 5 x 118 wheels and therefore are not listing them. I even called Oponeo uk explaining my predicament, they very kindly provided me with a code, assuring me that was the wheel I needed to order, only to find once back on their website that the wheel was a 130pcd

However, in my endless searching I've found the following wheel albeit advertised for a Peugeot Boxer; link Broken Link Removed.

The measurement seems to be right, so my question to you knowledgeable folk is will it fit my Fiat M/H?

Alternatively, if someone can point me in the right direction would be very much appreciated

Thank you for your assistance as always.

Hi mate, that's a pain
Sorry that the wheel is the wrong one. If you want to send it back, I'll give you your money back.

Does the 5 refer to number of studs/bolts or 5" wheel width?

Does this link help www.carlsalter.com/all-wheel-fitments.html ?

Pretty sure that as you have alloys and the wheel you have linked is steel you will need different studs if you need to use it

Yes, I bought a new set from Fiat main dealer but can see little difference

Hi mate, Please don't apologise, it was my school boy error!
That is an extremely generous offer and certainly not expected; thank you.
However, I will hold onto it as the next motorhome may well have a 130 PCD and I'll be one step ahead

Some say, it normally takes 3 motorhomes to get the one that's for you. I hope it doesn't take you 3 spare wheels

Hi @Hellski . Like you I took a punt and ordered a wheel I thought was the correct one. I bought it because it was a good deal. Demounted, taken off a MH which had alloys fitted, only done 6miles and a new tyre. I have a Fiat on order and was buying a spare up front. Asked the dealer what PCD the model's wheels were and was told to contact Fiat !!! Which was why I took a punt. Realised it was wrong and looked on the web. Oponeo had the correct rim. It has since disappeared. Black circle and Tyres on the Drive have some reasonable tyres on their websites.
So, I will return my 5x130, 225/75 R16 wheel and tyre unless a Funster wishes to take it off me for £90 plus postage or collect or do a meet.
Thanks again for the heads up. I have ordered the rim listed above and will get a tyre fitted.
Any Funster wishing to buy my wheel, please PM me for more details.
Regards,
Mike

Alloy ones 2mm longer.

Be careful with the after market wheels all the ones I found were limited to 1000kg as my real axle loading is 2500kg not a lot of good. I managed to get an as new never been used Fait wheel with the same part numbers as my wheels on eBay for £70. You often get them on eBay from tyre & wheel companies where their customer has bought a set of alloys, mine arrived in an alloy wheel box.

This is the guy I got mine from, he had 2 at the time not listing any now but worth contacting him. Mine is a x290 Maxi Chassis. Part number is stamped on the rim on the outside so only have to remove wheel trim to see.
