Dan do you do any steering wheel trimming? I usually use Southbound for my Porsche stuff.

Watch which wheels you buy! I bought 5 laguna silverstone alloys (4+spare) and the spare was a 2004 wheel which turns out had a 12mm bolt hole, I was able to drill it out at work but if you don't have access to the right equipment your looking at 20-30 quid a wheel to get done, but on a positive note if the holes are right they fit perfectly
Ps. Them wheels are expensive! I was £75 for 5 but tbf the tyres where shot

Doubt you would get steels to clear the brakes, and if you did you need at least a 16" and there quite expensive
I have dealt with David many times for seats, carpets and other bits for projects I have done.
If you want to do a steering wheel retrim for me let me know.

small world,we have probably met if youve been into the workshop. as ive worked there a long time( too long actually)
Best bet would be to get four space saver steel wheels. The red spares that came with the Espace and Vel Satis fit - they are the same as the optional spare for the Megane 225. There's plenty around on eBay, but because they are suspended from below the car normally they tend to be a bit rough and rusty. As long as you can get the existing tyre off you'll be able to rust-treat, sand and paint them black.
It's a 17x5.5J wheel, though, so you may have trouble finding winter tyres that fit. You might get a 205/50 R17 to fit.
