I'm just wondering if these wheels are on any other cars besides from the Citroen c5. Wanting the lighter of the two sets I believe each wheel comes to around 4.8kg. Thanks.

i dont know of any other cars these are on

i will say here though be aware when buying to get the ones that use taper seat bolts
there are a few sets left out there after the recall still using flat seat and well yea they got recalled by citroen as they crack around the bolts and come off....

I've had no luck in finding a set as of yet. Thanks for that info though as I didn't know anything about that.

joe they are but theyre rarer and more expensive

seen sets go for 400+
only ever set ive seen go cheap were the ones i snapped up for my gti at 250

not everyone wants to spend that kinda money on wheels likely to end up in a gravel trap

c5 are a good light wheel but crap for track use.. only on the breaking side, my option brakes get starved of cold air feed with them due to the small holes drake dust build up ect.. id prefer a light weight spoked wheel..

Rota attacks are 4.8kg and ypu can get them in the correct offset unlike OZ wheels. Also if you want a light wheel/tyre combo dont use R888's!!!

acb10s iirc are a load lighter than 888s

i wasnt after uber light i was just after superlegs or ultralegs the tyres were a bonus
