1900 - 2000 (102) - 2600 (106) wheels
The 1900 - 2000 (102) - 2600 (106) cars used 165x400 mm Fergat steel wheels with 5 x 4.5 inch bolt pattern and zero offset. Borrani 165x400 wire wheels were available as an option, using a type 42 hub on the 1900 and 2000 and a larger type 52 hub on the 2600. The wire wheele widened the track by about 2.5 inches in total. An exeption was the 2600 SZ (106.12), which used a 5.00 x 400 wheel and 175 x 400 tires on a Borrani "Turbo Sport" disk wheel that had a steel center with an alloy rim.
Tires were either Michelin "Bibendum" millimetric or Pirelli Cinturato SR variety with inner tubes. Michelin tires are still available today because they are also used on several Citroen models including the famous "traction avant". I heard through Re-originals that about 80-100 Pirelli Cinturatos are produced every year, making them about twice as expensive as the Michelins.
