#1: Wheel Bolts? Author: jaypug206, Location: LondonPosted: Sat Oct 01, 2011 4:47 am ---- Hi,
I had originally had 175/65/14 steel wheels I changed them for the alloys below which are the exact same size 175/65/14.
What I wanted to know is I used the same bolts from the steel wheels onto the alloys below, is that ok? Or would I need new ones?
Thanks for you help in advance

The size you gave is the tyre size, not the alloy fitment size

NO, you must not use steel wheel bolts with alloy wheels!
Go get the correct alloy wheel bolts before you loose a wheel from the car while driving!
There cheap enough new from any Peugeot / Citroen main dealer.
