1973 Renault R12 Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1973 Renault R12 bolts on with a 5x130 pattern. The factory setup runs 15x4.5 wheels at 42-millimeter offset. You can step up through 14- or 15-inch sizes, ranging from 4.5 to 6.5 inches wide, giving you flexibility to match your style without requiring staggered fitment.
Only 5x130 bolts fit this Renault, so confirm that pattern before ordering. The hub-centric bore measures 71.6 millimeters; use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore is larger to ensure a proper fit. Going too wide or too aggressive on offset risks contact with fenders and suspension, so choose your width and offset carefully within the compatible range.
All wheels verified to bolt on ship free across the lower 48 states. BBS, Rotiform 1PC, Asanti Black, and Victor Equipment are among the in-stock options ready to transform your R12 today.
