I've been offered a spare wheel fitted with a 225/55 R17 97W tyre: same size tyre as for my C6 2.2. HDi. I'm told this is the spare wheel from a C5 X7 Tourer. Anyone know if the wheels are the same and will fit the C6?

I just bought 4 of these for my C6 and really hope they will fit !! (a set of winter wheels). If you have a C6 3.0 Hdi it will not fit as spare, they only have space for a small emergency wheel.

This website: Wheel Size has the answers! In the case of my C6, the wheel is described as '7Jx17 ET32'. The same wheel description shows under the C5 model for the same tyre size. In the case of the steel wheels, they have ID information pressed into them, including 'ET32'. My car has the Rivazza alloys: I've not looked but maybe similar information is cast/pressed into them.

What type of wheels did you buy?

I have installed 18'' Atlantique wheels from a C5 X7 on my 2007 C6 and I have no problems.

I've been buying up steel spare wheels. The one from the C5 X7, mentioned above, is exactly the same as the onboard spare that my C6 has. I'm buying spare wheels whilst I have the Rivazza alloys refurbished and repainted.
