1978 Renault R17 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1978 Renault R17 Gordini uses a 3x150 bolt pattern with a 60.1mm center bore. The factory wheel is 13x5 with a 36mm offset. You can also fit 13x5.5 wheels on this car, giving you modest width options while maintaining the same bolt circle and offset characteristics across the lineup.
Only wheels with a 3x150 bolt pattern will fit your R17. Since the center bore measures 60.1mm, use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore exceeds that diameter to ensure proper centering and balance. Moving significantly wider or choosing aggressive offsets risks contact with the fender and suspension components, so stick within the compatible sizes listed.
Every wheel we ship has been verified to fit your Renault R17. We offer free shipping to the lower 48 states on all fitments, and our stock includes quality options that work perfectly on your car.
