Fiat seicento Tyre change - tgems
Hi,

I've just purchased a fiat seicento and need to change the tyres already.

Can I put tyres from a put Fiat Barchetta? They are195/55R15 85V. I'm not sure, but they are going cheep and I would like to take advantage of it,

Thanks to any advice that anyone can give,

Tom

If you do a search of both cars on the Dunlop site, it will tell you the recommended tyre sizes.

Having owned both cars the imediate difference is a wheel size - 13 ins on a Sciecento sporting and 15's or 16's on the barchetta. Tyres for the seicento are about £50 for a premium brand. I would have thought a 15 inch wheel on a Seicento would be too big. Interesting one for you insurance co as fiat don't make an upgrade wheel like they did for the barchetta.
