Wheels

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, but I couldn't find any references.

Did any of you have any choice in the style of mag that your SE's came with? I note from the various owners pictures that there are some differing designs, some with a "straight" spoke and others with "curved". I doubt I'll have any say in what I get, but would be interested to know what the standard wheel is being fitted to currently produced 2.0's

Cheers

the standard wheels are the 16" ones as fitted to mine (owner 001) the ones with curved spokes are 15" ones and a option on the 1.6 version.

Some owners have fitted after market alloys to add their own style to the CC

Cheers

2.0SE models come with Ouragan alloys which is the straight 9 spoke ones - 16" wheels

1.6S models come with luxury wheel trims on 15" which are something like 5 spoke with the curves. I think the optional alloys on the 1.6 are the same design as the wheel trims but not positive as i have an SE.

Any other pics of alloys you see are probably after market ones fitted by their owners.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info Derek and Lyndon. Your reply is what I'd guessed, but good to confirm.

just note that there are 2 sizes of tyre on the 16" wheels.

The Uk get 205/45/ZR16 and the rest of Europe gets (or was - correct me if I am wrong anyone) 195/50/ZR16

Sorry rob, but in Greece the SE comes with the same size as in UK (205/45/16). And I think in all Europe is the same too.
