Hi
I have just bought some second hand Peugeot 206 wheels with excellent 175/65/14 tyres on for my berlingo but the back ones are rubbing when going over bumps and cornering. My previous wheels were 15 inch Peugeot wheels with 195/65/15 tyres on but they were not rubbing. Any ideas what could be the reason for the rubbing as i'm totally confused?

Probably a different offset wheel. Offset is the depth of the mounting face of the wheel to the hub. The Berlingo wheels are probably a smaller offset meaning they sit more snuggly into the wheel arch, the 206 wheels have more offset meaning they are pushed out towards the wheel arch lip and rub when moving upwards on bumps.
