 Re: 2CV Very Special
Indeed, they're nothing like the wheels I've got on my car, they're metric or 16" aren't they? Mine are 15".

 Re: 2CV Very Special
Am I right in thinking very early cars had 16" wheels or did I make that up in my head?

 Re: 2CV Very Special
16" is just over 400mm, so that's correct. Never heard of 16" though. It's 15" or 400mm rims

 Re: 2CV Very Special

 Re: 2CV Very Special
I knew they weren't exactly the same, but which Pug are they from. Having recently bought new wheels I'm not going to buy any more, but just for future reference  .

 Re: 2CV Very Special
203, although 403 will also fit and they use 2cv nuts. Neither look anything like early 2cv wheels when you see them in the flesh though.
