Hi
Will a 2008 punto steel wheel fit a 2014 panda 4x4? 175 65 15
I'm looking for a spare wheel

NO!!! Yes it will go on the car, but No it will not go in the spare wheel well. Its a space saver or nowt! I still have one listed for sale for postage costs only in classifieds. A panda 100 wheel was on a 45 series tyre and just fitted... sort of into that car. my wifes Lounge has a 14" space saver with a higher profile and 15" road wheels. That tyre is horrid. the 4x4 takes a 125x15 space saver but you need a Doblo or Bravo or 500L jack to lift the 4x4 off the ground. standard Panda jack is no good without a massive block under - and thats not safe.Hi

I bought some Panda 100 lookalike alloys and they would not go on the car as the offset was wrong and they rubbed on the brakes. Very expensive mistake!! SO your point re offset is important.Some only with spacers on as offset is different
I have 15” punto wheels on the 2005 4x4 with 10mm spacers and longer bolts…but not all the wheels have the same offset so you need to check.
The four I got all looked alike but one turned out to be different, which the vendor sorted out for me
You’ll have to check offset as they are not all alikeThanks
I realise it won't fit in the well but is the offset and bolt pattern the same?
Try one of your existing wheels in the back. I did and no way Jose would it go in, you have to stand it up against the back seat. Even wi the tyre deflated it will not go in.Ah, worth a try.
Thanks guys, looks like I'll have to get a new full size one online
I 'll make a raised false boot floor is the plan
yes. Just after postage but I may be coming up to manchester in the next few weeeks.Is your space saver still for sale?
I assume the steering geometry and components are the same between the Panda 4x4 and Cross? If so would suggest that the Cross wheels actually 5.5J so that the centre of steering rotation on the tyre on the contact point remains similar. Or simply that the centre line of the tyres stays near the same dimension, else the Ackermann steering geometry would need to change? ( I used to design wheels and remember many happy days trying to explain to clients the relationship between changing rim width and ET.)To answer the question…
The Panda 4x4 wheels are 15”, 6J, with an offset of ET35 and the PCD for the bolt holes is 98mm.
Note that for the Cross 4x4 the offset is different - ET30
Punto wheels have a different offset, and the newer ones have a different PCD of 100mm (so the bolt holes won’t line up either)
Both use 6J wheels. On the Cross 4x4 these are (or were until dropped to gain higher WLTP mpg) fitted with wider 185/65 r15 tyres (compared to 175/65 r15 tyres on the non-Cross 4x4). I believe the ‘wider’ offset is to prevent the wider tyres catching on the subframe (There’s a recent thread where a 4x4 owner fitted the 185 tyres to the standard 4x4 wheels and experienced this problem)I assume the steering geometry and components are the same between the Panda 4x4 and Cross?

Yes, I have 185/65 15s on my 2005 4x4, with 10mm spacers…if you try them on standard wheels, with no spacers, they rub the struts…and, if you have aggressive treads, they will foul the bottom rear of the front wheelarches and the front of the rear archesBoth use 6J wheels.
