Styling Quick wheel question

[WyreWheels]

A simple question I guess. Can I fit 14" 4x4 alloys (the split four spoke type) to a bog standard 1.1 Panda Active Eco?

The reason I ask is that I need to replace all 4 13" tyres (the age of them is quite scary) and the price of the 165/60/14 tyre is no different to the 13" one. I think the 4x4 wheel has a slightly lower offset than the 13" steel but is a bit wider.

Many thanks.

Correct, The rim width and offset are different this keeps the correct geometry for the steering self centering

Panda 13" with the correct tyre fitted

And fiat panda 14" with the correct tyre fitted

Are a direct swap

That’s good, thank you.

I forgot to ask if the wheel bolts from the steel wheels can be used or if different ones are needed?

Yes, they use the same wheel bolts.
