Hi all,

Picked up these wheels for a mere £30, test fitted one today. They're a bit tight! Currently with 195/55r15 tyres, I'm thinking either wheel spacers, which I don't really like, but maybe 5mm? Or get different tyres, thinking 185/55r15 or 185/60

Anyone else fitted these to their berlingo? Which option did you go for?

Hmm, bit of rub at the rear, OK on the front...

It looks like spacers are your best option if you really want to use the wheels.
Why dont you fit spacers as Frenchie suggests ,then when the tyres are worn out remove the spacers and fit smaller tyres and that way you dont waste the cost of the fitted ones.What were these wheels originally fitted to ? £30 sounds a little cheap to me ,call me distrusting but i would be questioning why they were that cheap.
They look to me like the ones on a Peugeot 206cc https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c.../206cc.jpg

Well, two of the tyres are no good, and the other two only have a couple mm of life left

is your rear axle ok? i use 306 GTI6 wheels with 195/50 15 and have a fair bit of space behind them
5mm spacer on the rear and 185 55 15 tyres. Job done 😀
