Title: Will these wheels fit a Murena?
Post by: Murena IRL on November 28, 2007, 12:44:16 pm

Hi all,

Would these wheels from a TVR S3 (eight spoke)  fit a Murena?

What about these from Chimera?

Both are 15' but dont know off sets.

Thanks

I believe the TVR has a bolt circle of 4/108 (same as Citroën/Peugeot)
The Murena has a bolt circle of 4/98 ( same as some Lancia, Fiat or Alfa, but not the same offset)

So the answer to your question is NO!

That was the the technical reason why they dont fit. Then there is the cosmetic reason, and the answer must be the same....NO, THEY DO NOT FIT A MURENA......Well, we are living in a free world, and (almost) everything is possible, and we are lucky to have our own personal oppinion. But in my world, it doesnt look right, when a car from the ´80 runs on wheels from the ´90. If you ask me, then the only wheels that fits a Murena is......well, Murena-wheels.

you can get wheels with  4x100 bolt circle to fit... thats the same as old vw and Opels.. should be plenty to choose from... but watch the Offset... you dont want to go above 30 or below 25 mm.
