1976 Renault R12 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1976 Renault R12 uses a 3x150 bolt pattern with a 60.1mm hub-centric center bore. The stock wheel is 13x4.5 with a 36mm offset. You can also fit 13x5, 13x5.5, and 14x5.5 wheels on this vehicle. Since fitment is square across all axles, you have flexibility in matching or mixing sizes according to your preference.
When shopping for wheels, remember that only 3x150 bolts will fit—verify this pattern before ordering. Use hub-centric rings if your wheel's center bore exceeds 60.1mm to ensure proper centering. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so stick within the compatible sizes listed to avoid clearance problems.
All wheels verified to fit the R12 ship free to the lower 48 states. Browse our selection of in-stock options that match your classic Renault's needs.
