Hi all,
long time no post
I've been tasked with helping a work friend find a spare wheel for his 2011 Citroen C4 1.6 Hdi VTR, he got standard Citroen 16 inch wheels fitted, but no spare, and he's getting tired of calling the AA when he gets a flat tyre.
I've seen some spare wheel kits on ebay for the older C4's but these seem to require tapered bolts, his alloys have flat bolts.
My question is can any (older and cheaper) C4 alloy wheel fit on the 2011, or must it be a 2011 onward wheel?
He's not worried about it matching, just wants a spare wheel of some kind.
Thank you

Cant think of the C4 Picasso off hand but most modern Cit's with alloys have dual function wheel bolts, they have a flat washer for the alloy but a tapered section for use with a steel wheel. When the bold is fully tightened onto the steel wheel the washer doesn't even touch the wheel & can freely 'float' around.

I've got loads of tapered wheelbolts if you find you need a set.

Re: 2011 Citroen C4 wheels
My daughter bought a C4 hatchback about a year ago which came without a spare wheel. I got her one from http://www.oponeo.co.uk/steel-wheels-finder About £34 including delivery. And a decent part worn tyre for another tenner.
