1979 Renault R17 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1979 Renault R17 Gordini fastens wheels using a 3x150 bolt pattern. The factory setup runs 13x5 wheels at a 36 offset. You can also fit 13x5.5 wheels on this car, giving you a modest width option while maintaining the same offset range that keeps everything working properly.
Keep in mind that only the 3x150 bolt pattern will work—no other patterns fit this R17. The center bore measures 60.1 millimeters; if your wheel's center bore is larger, use hub-centric rings to seat wheels correctly on the hub. Stay cautious with aggressive offsets or very wide wheels, as pushing beyond the tested compatible sizes risks rubbing against the fender or suspension components.
Every wheel you find here bolts straight on and ships free to the lower 48 states. We verify fitment before you buy, so you can order with confidence for your classic Renault.
