Rim Size Limits - Guidlines and engineering Fri, 13 May 2005 00:11 Go to previous message
-- Ok this is one thing I finally want to understand..

Regarding increasing rims sizes on ur car. (diameter not width is all Im worrying about here)

I always believed that the rim size could be increased 2" over the stock size....

but

I then I was told (cant remember where/who) that you can increase the rim diameter as much as u like..providing that the tyre profile dosnt increase over 2" from the stock total diameter including rim/tyres...??

(this makes sense to me in some ways)

as on my car I have 16" rims with 45 profile rubber...the total diameter is just a fraction smaller than the stock rim/rubber combo..(stock rims are 13")

so is this the case or does it only apply to the rim size increase???

and lastly.... if it is only the rim increase. can bigger rims that go over the 2" limit be engineered??

any help answerig these Q's would be greatly appreciated...
need to clear the confusion once and for all..
thanks.
