Wheel Size

Guys,

Im about to purchase some wheels but want to make sure of my facts for the Avon.

Proposing to buy the following set up.

195 x 50 x 15"

PCD 108 Hub 63.4

Wheel width 6 inch with a ET35 offset.

Can anyone see a problem?

Thanks

Ian

Sounds about right. Will have a look at mine tomorrow for a double check.

What kind have you in mind?





Thanks

Thanks Guys,

Not sure about the make yet I want to check what will fit first so I don't start chasing the impossible.

The tiger brochure says standard Ford 185 x60 x14" or 15". Doing the calculations I make the 15" conbination I've qouted to be around 5% smaller. Therefore the speedo will over read. ie im showing 70 whem im doing 65 say. The problem with 14" wheels is that they are very tight.

The width of the wheel also concerns me. I believe I have around 110mm from the hub to the edge of the bodywork. ie the offset checking.

Overall this wheel selection is a right black art.
