I thought I read somewhere on here a list of other pug cars which shared the same rims as a Berlingo?
Over winter, I need to source a new set of 15 inch steel rims to accommodate my summer tyres.
I am therefore on the look out for some rims. I seem to recall the likes of the 306 had the same ones and they would fit straight on.
Did someone post a list somewhere with all the likely models?
I can't find it as it's probably tucked away in one of the many winter tyre threads.

There was a list I think, but like you can't remember where. I emphasised on a couple of previous threads about wheels that you must be careful of the offset. The rear is VERY tight for space inboard of the tyre, put your hand in there and you will see what I mean. Just because another model is quoted as having the same offset fitted, it dosn't necessarily follow that those wheels will fit.

Yes, I want to try and be sure before I buy, hence if I can narrow down the models it would help.
My wheel is marked 6J x 15 H2 ET18
So, it's a 15 inch wheel by 6 inch wide, with an offset of 18? Is that the key bits? Or are you saying even if I found a set of 306 wheels which matched those numbers exact, it might still not fit?
Other numbers on there are 0104 - which I thought would be the month and year of manufacture?
And 2150740 ?? Some sort of serial number?

ET18 is the offset and that's the important bit. If any other wheels you find have the same offset you will be O.K. but please check the wheels are stamped with his before buying.

306/Xsara 106/Saxo and maybe 406/Xantia wheels should be a straight swap IIRC
