   Anyone know of any stellies in 4x108 for saxo/ C2 fitment and 16", want some banded but I can only find 15's.
   
   I've had a browse around for new biiger Citroen eg C8, but are 5 stud now
   
   Any links would be great, cheap too please, gonna be over £300 to have them banded.
   
   Cheers, Ed

   They're 15's too, if that bus has 15's I think 16 steels are gonna be a nightmare to find, which they are proving to be.

   You will struggle to fine them tbh
   
   A new set that people are using is the c4 alloys that look like steelies.

   Cheers, but they gotta be steelies so they can be banded.

    its cutting the wheel in half and adding a band of steel to it to widen the wheel

    Going through widewheels.com and 99% sure they are all legal and stuff, know somebody with some on a mk1 caddy and never had any problems.
    
    Found some now anyway of a 'Top of the Range' Berlingo, just gotta find some cheap as havent robbed a bank to buy off Citroen.

    well yeah but its more done to just look good on old beetles/ golfs normally and then allow the tyre to stretch

    my only dubious fear is then having to run spacers with the wheels due to the extended width and them not fitting in the arches.
