15" 4x100PCD steelies

Post by hairy_boater »

hi there,

stage one [spring lift] on my AE95 corolla 4WD is completed. With an extra 30mm up front and 50mm in the back i should be able to fit some bigger rubber.

any ideas on cars/4wd with 15 inch 4x100PCD steel rims? do they exist?

alternatively, 14" rims are very common - I know toyo do a 13" M&S tyre, but i'd be more interested in a 14" allterrain - any thoughts?

btw, thanks to all the people who responded to my previous post about the CV's - we'll see what happens!

cheers

Tim

Swamper used to do a tyre for 14" rims guys use to run them on the back of B&S utes. Not sure on the tyre size but it would be around 27" I guess to fit on a holden ute.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....

From the above page, please note the following:
Please note this list is a GUIDE to correct wheel fitment.
There may be errors or ommisions.
You should always check before fitting tyres to wheels
that the wheel is a good physical fit on the vehicle hub.
Check for firm fitment on the centre hub
brake caliper clearance to spokes,
clearance to suspension and steering components.


The centre hub is supposed to bear the weight of the vehicle, not the studs. If the centre bore is too large the studs are bearing vehicle weight as well as transmitting acceleration and braking forces, and are much more likely to break. It's amazing the number of wheel fitment places which don't seem to appreciate this.
