This is the guide for Citroen C5 X7 Alloys:

Note, if you are changing alloys, you must also make sure you check the settings in the ESP ECU, to ensure the system knows you have different sized alloys as this can affect the speed information calculated and can have a direct impact on the Automatic Gearbox and the ESP system.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I don't understand the table. What's the difference between "ok" and a green box? Does the whole table translate into everything fitting on everything except DW12s that started with 17s can't run 16s?

Hi

It's French, so confusing, like their wiring diagrams!

As far as I can tell, the black is N/A as it's already the factory fitted wheel for each of the wheels as shown, and the green cannot be fitted - only the cells shown as OK.

So on a 16" factory fitted Wheels (which will have the Short Steering Rack), you can only go to 17".

Vehicles with Factory fitted Long Steering Racks:
17" Can go to 16" (with the exception of the DW12 Engine vehicles), 18" or 19".
18" Can go to 17" or 19".
19" Can go to 17" or 18".

Thanks for the clarification. Maybe the person who made the table was colour blind and thought they filling with red and not green lol.
