Are you sure 15" wheels will fit? I tried some 16v 15" wheels on my 1.9i volcane and the rear was scrubbing without anyone in. It looked miles better though.
There was a bloke breaking a ZX TD Volcane on ebay. Might be looking on there.

Right i'll take another look at ebay, yes i am sure 15" will fit but they have to be 195/50/15 maybe 195/55/15 these shouldnt rub on the archs. 185 will definintly fit.
Thanks DarkendViper

i should of added this bit of info above--> The only prob with ebay is 99% of people selling alloys on ebay is that they will not send by post, there pick up only and that gets a bit expensive cos i live on the isle of wight (Car on boat, Fuel).

You used to be able to get stuff picked up by parcel2go. So long as it is under 25kg per parcel it is not too dear.

In the days when I lived on an island you could get stuff sent to the pier and pick it up there.

i've been offerd a set of renault 19 16 alloys 15" for £100, four of the wheels have new tires on them,this sounds like a good deal but will these wheels go on my Zx TD aura? i only ask this as i need four new tires on my car (which are currently 14" aura alloys with 185\60\14)i know i said i didnt want alloys that come from another cars standard model eg pug 205 gti type but i really need my tires replaced. its a pitty i just cant get the wheels and remove the tires and fit them ona nicer set of alloys.

I don't think that Renault alloys will fit Citroens (even if the PCD is the same, the offset will certainly be different), but Peugeot ones will - I'm running a set of 205 1.9 GTI 15" alloys with 195/50s on my 5dr ZX Volcane with no rubbing (even 3-up in the back!), and they suit the car so well it's spooky! [:0]
If any of you are getting rubbing on the inner face of the wheels on a ZX with 15s then squat down behind the car and have a look at the rear wheels; if they look like this /-\ they you may need to think about getting the rear arm bearings replaced as I had to do this for the exact same reason on my last ZX.
