Wheel fitment & what tyres?

[cee]

I'm looking at a set of wheels with the specs;

Front: Et35 7x16"
Rear: Et20 9x16"

- Will these fit, if not what spacers do I need?
- Also, which profile tyres will be required to make the overall size of the wheel the same as my 15's (205/55/15)?

You'll need 20mm spacers for the fronts for the wheel to sit perfectly in the arch.
possibly 5mm on the rears.

tyres for the fronts 205/50/16's
tyres for the rears 225/45/16's with a bit of stretch to fit the 9j rim.

BTW, they are 4x100 and C/B of 57.1mm???

I'm waiting for a reply regarding the centre bore, and yes 4x100. Why a smaller profile on the rear?

[Rav335uk]

You have to remember, the wider the tyre, the less on the profile.
The sizes I gave you will keep you rolling radius near enough the same as the 205/55/15 tyre, so you speedo will read near correct.

Ah I see okay. Thanks! Here's to hoping the CB will fit!

[Rav335uk]

If the C/B is larger than 57.1mm, , as you'll be using spacers, you'll have to go hubcentrics, but you might struggle for the rears.

[cee]

Is that due to the ET of the rears?

[Rav335uk]

Hubcentric spacers come minimum of 10mm irc.

Ah I see, okay will bear that in mind. Thanks for the info
