I come across this site looking for tyres and because I want to upgrade my wheels to 15 inch.

Hours of fun, you can load a picture of your car and try all wheel types and sizes to suite your taste.

What size are you running now width and height and what are you doing with old one's may be interested in them if selling .I have same wheel pattern and HQ stud pattern as you I have 14 front 15 back that may be a problem with engineer don't know yet???

Hi there Bill,

I have at the moment 14 x 6 front HQ pattern and 14 x7 rear Fraud Pattern, Dragway prostars.

I want to change them to a different style but use 15 x 6 and 15 x 7 or 15 x 7 and 15 x 8.

All the wheels seem to 15 x 7 or 8 but you have to watch the offset and track.

The RMS rules say you can increase the track by 25mm but they don't really say much about decreasing the track or at least I can't find it ?

Your wheels should be ok engineering wise, what width are they ?

I wonder if the Visualiser can visualise 20” wheels on an EK?

Bigbird had trouble Visualising it...

My wheels are prostar 6"x 14" front 8" x 15" rear HZ stud pattern Shortened 9" fraud . I herd lately that you cant have two different dimension wheels don't know if it is true or not??. Porsche 911 have 18" x 9' front 19" x 10" rear they clam it gives better handling .

Not true Bill,

There is scope for different diameter wheels, when you read the VSB14 it states that wheels on an axle must be the same eg front or rear.

There is allowable limits in general but if engineered there should be no issue.

What size are your tyres on the rear ?

195/65R 14 89H Front

That is good news I lost a lot of sleep over that You have something to do with the checking I thought I read that you said that somewhere

Yes Bill for my club and conditional rego.

Nice tyre size choice by the way, how much room do you have in the rear from the tyre to the guard lip approx ?

Greg

Greg
Not sure now as the wheels aren't on the car but they sit in the middle of wheel arch I rolled the lip and took that little piece to the chase out They fit real well Front may be a problem on turns as I have 2" drop spindles and lowed springs should sit nice when the motor goes in
