1969 Renault R16 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1969 Renault R16 uses a 3x150 bolt pattern with a 60.1mm center bore. The factory wheel is 13x5 with a 36mm offset. You can fit both 13x5 and 13x5.5 widths, maintaining the same offset for proper clearance and handling balance. Since this classic runs the same setup front and rear, a square fitment works best for your restoration or upgrade.
The 3x150 bolt pattern is specific to your R16—no other pattern will bolt on safely. Your hub is 60.1mm, so if you choose a wheel with a larger bore, use hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit and eliminate vibration. Avoid wheels significantly wider or with aggressive offsets that differ from stock, as the modest suspension geometry and tight fender clearance on this compact French classic leave little room for error.
Every wheel we stock for your R16 is verified to bolt on correctly and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. While we're currently restocking inventory for this model, we regularly carry quality brands that respect the dimensions and heritage of your vehicle.
