General better ask this about cinq wheels

[dave]

picking my cinq up tomorrow it has 2 flat tyres i was going to take 2 punto 14" wheels + tyres with me incase they wont pump up they wont rub will they?

 

[MrDerv]

you'll need some spacers to use the punto wheels, not sure how much you'll need but once they're on and with the corrected offset, they won't rub

 

[GhostWKD]

depends on the profile of the tyres, gotta remember cinqs run with 13's with 55 profile tyres as standard (although as a guide mine was running 13's with 65 profile and still had stacks to spare space wise)

 

[dave]

aww no not got time to get spacers, will have to take some 13" ones off the 55 or 1 and the red spare thing,

thanks

 

[MrDerv]

even the 13" ones on the 55 will need spacers, or so i'm told, all to do with the offset and brake caliper clearance

goast just said 13's with 65 is ok

 

[GhostWKD]

ahhh, forgot the punts have different offset, so will sit further in the wheel and possibly foul the turning circle :s my bad sorry :s

hope you find a way around the prob dave and sorry im not of much more use

It's not the tyre you need to worry about, it's the offset of the punto wheel as you don't want caliper to wheel contact at all. Hope that clears a few things

 

[dave]

i took 2 punto 13s and 2 14s but never needed them car had no flat tyres after all just 1 bald one so we fit the spare and mate drove it home for me

thanks for replies though

 

[gaz.d]

can you put the punto wheels on the back of the cinq??

EDIT - sorry dave a little late
