Vauxhall Astra....Skoda Falicia both fit apparently..

I'm no expert........just used search and typed in Reliant wheels...the real experts on this site came up with the answers

Trikeman says 17" or you'll be revving the knackers off it.

Then there is the old 4" PCD/100mm PCD argument.....to my mind a bit of rifler filing would sort that argument........

So there you go....down the scrappies with a tape or giy us a pair of Astra/Falicia wheels mister

Zackly what I did with the Woolfies on mine, they were 17" and came off a Pug 106 Sport (my son's) and with the judicious use of a drill and rat-tail file I oval'd the holes, making sure I oval'd the tapers as well so the lug nuts would torque up correctly.

I have a set 13" wellers on the xj1100,4" pcd is the proper size ,my opinion is if the wheels don`t fit perfect there not right and won`t centre correctly ie 4" is 101.2 mm roughly so 100mm too small 102mm too big.thirteen inch wheels with a large wall tyre works well no over reving.Have a look out for mini lites they fit buit everyone uses them(thats not a bad thing they look good)
