Torsten2001 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 So I have my battered R12 Estate with mis matched Renault 3 Stud wheels them lo and behold someone's gone and offered me a set of 3 stud Smart car alloy wheels, any idea if they'll fit?

nigel bickle Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Nope -but I'd be interested to know too! Smaller 3 stud Ren's dont fit.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2_craig Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Can't help on the Renner dimensions - a quick internet search should throw something up but maybe not in English! The following page is quite good for smart info though, offsets etc are all over the place mind:http://www.evilution.co.uk/index.php?id ... ge=modpage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 The rear wheels on Smart cars have crazy offsets, looks something like less than ET10.I doubt they would fit under the rear arches on a 12 due to the arch being an ellipsoid, rather than round shape.The PCD (bolt spacing) might be different too.I guess a set of Renner 5 Gordini wheels would be, say £12.5 bn to buy these days even if they did fit..... I wonder if you can buy 'Rostyle' replica wheel trims on the 'Bay - I think 12's suit that style - My Gordini model has something like that.edit: Nope you cant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel bickle Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I've restarted work on the 12 van 4*4 recently -and a decent set of rims would help motivate me- cos there's a lot to do!Started on n/side front -suspension & brake overhaul -every bush knackered. Bit of welding on the front of the sill, inner wing patching and a replacement outer. Its got a LONG way to go -but the journeys started..So- Torsten -if you find TWO sets of lovely wheels -count me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
