1971 Renault R16 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1971 Renault R16 uses a 3x150 millimeter bolt pattern with a 60.1 millimeter hub-centric center bore. The factory wheel is a 13x5 with a 36 millimeter offset. You can fit either 13x5 or 13x5.5 wheels, giving you modest sizing flexibility while maintaining proper handling and clearance characteristics for this classic compact sedan.
Only wheels with a 3x150 bolt pattern will fit this vehicle—no exceptions. Since the center bore is 60.1 millimeters, use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore measures larger; this ensures proper centering and eliminates vibration. Avoid excessively wide or aggressive offset choices that could cause rubbing inside the fender or contact with suspension components.
Every wheel we list for your R16 bolts on securely and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. While we don't currently have stock dedicated to this fitment, our inventory rotates regularly—check back soon or contact us for availability on period-correct options.
