[Tires & Wheels] What wheel to buy ?

[Bizzy9]

I need to buy a wheel from a breakers yard. I have a CITROEN BERLINGO M-SP VTR HDI 90 2010. Just a basic wheel - nothing fancy.

Will any wheel from any B9 Berlingo do ? Or even a van wheel ?

As you can probably tell I know nothing about wheels or tyres.

If you look on one of your wheels ( you may have to remove it to see as it could be stamped on the back ) but there will be markings giving you the wheel size and off set, something like this example 7.5J x16 ET35
7.5J means the rim width and 16 is the tyre diameter. ET35 is the offset of the rim mounting face in relation to the centerline of the rim if that makes sense.
So once you have the stamped numbers of one of your wheels you have some idea what you will be looking for.

Hello.

The steel originals are 6,5x16 LK4/108 ML65 ET26 or ET27.

Thanks for the information guys.

If you are buying just one from the scrap yard, just make sure you buy one that has the same reference as the others you already have.

Cheers.

The above numbers are what you need to know for the steel wheels. The tyres are then your choice, based on the wheel size you have.

You still need the right sized and rated tyres - you can't just fit anything with the right wheel radius!

If you've got your manual it's all listed in there.  If you get the wrong width, profile, speed or load ratings then it could be dangerous and invalidate your insurance.

from my experience, there are not that many tire dimensions being offered to the wheels of the dimensions I gave... in the end you are left to choose between 2 or 3 tire sizes, that vary in width and height. This is because the dimensions of the steels are specific for vans...and also because of the load ratings...
