Determining the Width & Height of Your 20 Inch Tires

Knowing your vehicle's tire width (also called cross section) and height is an important step when shopping for tires. To determine these measurements, check the vehicle's tire information placard on the door jamb of the driver's side door. Or, check the sidewalls of your current tires. You'll see a series of numbers and symbols that look like this: P265/35 R22. The first number in the series (265) is the width of your tires. It is measured in millimeters (mm). The number after the / is the height of your tires. So, in our example the tire height would be 35.

Tires, wheels for Lada Priora (Lada Priora)

The right choice of rims and tires for Lada Priora is an important point, which is carried out by coordinating the selection with the recommendations of the manufacturer. The quality of his driving, safety during movement depends on the seriousness with which the owner of the car takes this issue.

To correctly solve the problem of choosing wheels, you need to have information not only about the appropriate dimension, but also about many other things:

  • Vehicle season,
  • as pavement,
  • driving style,
  • maximum allowable load on both axles of the vehicle,
  • mode in which the machine is operated (daily, periodically, etc.).

What tire and wheel sizes are recommended in KOLOBOX for Lada Priora?

The size of tires and wheels suitable for a particular car depends on the year of manufacture and modification.

Lada Priora, launched on the market since 2007, is presented today in a single modification.

Replacement 185/55R15

According to the table, the following tire parameters are recommended for this car: diameter 15 or 16 inches, width from 175 to 195 mm, profile (width to height ratio) from 50 to 70%.

Other variations of these sizes up or down are possible, but taking into account the provision for all the negative consequences associated with such tuning.

What tires are suitable for a Lada Priora car in the winter season?

Available with this car, winter tires have a special rubber compound that retains its softness and elasticity at different temperatures. The sipes, which are equipped with the tread pattern of these tires, have a special structure that eliminates excess moisture, dirt or snow from the rubber surface. Such wheels maintain the desired level of car handling in the winter season.

However, factory tires have their disadvantages: insufficiently strong stud fastening contributes to their rapid loss, and the noise coming from the wheels while driving reduces driving comfort.

The table shows possible options for winter tires for Lada Priora.

Cordiant Snow Cross (PW-2) 89T
Laufenn iFIT ICE (LW71) 89T (XL)
BFGoodrich G-Force Stud 89Q (XL)
Nitto Therma Spike 85T

When choosing winter tires for a vehicle, it is necessary to pay more attention to its quality characteristics than to external ones. Low-profile high-speed tires, as a way to give the car aggressiveness, are more appropriate in the warm season.

What tires are suitable for the car Lada Priora in the summer?

The choice of summer tires for each car must be accompanied by a definition of driving style.

Drivers leaning towards a more relaxed driving style, adhering to the average level of speed on city roads, can choose among budget high-profile models. They will provide the car owner and his passengers with the necessary level of safety and comfort while driving.

Aggressive driving enthusiasts who choose low profile tires face high levels of noise while driving. Every unevenness in the road surface is transferred to the suspension, which reduces its wear resistance.

You can pay attention to the following brands of car tires: Maxxis, Kama, Cordiant, Goodyear.

What wheels are recommended for Lada Priora?

Recommended rim sizes for Lada Priora cars: 15 and 16 inches. These are the most comfortable driving options. Larger sizes, such as 16 inches or more, are possible, but they require the purchase of low profile tires.

The bolt pattern, as the main indicator that should be followed when choosing rims, for Lada has the following form: 4 mounting holes located on a circle with a diameter of 98 mm.

What pressure is recommended for Lada Priora tires?

For 14-inch tires, the following pressure should be adhered to: 2.0 Atmospheres with the possibility of reducing to 1.8 Atm for softer wheels. This option is suitable for those car owners who think that the Priora tires are too hard, while driving, all the bumps on the road surface are felt.

For 15-inch wheels, maintain a pressure of 2.1-2.2 atm.

What is the effect of tire and rim size on vehicle performance?

Consider the influence in the table below:

What wheel parameters can be changed without consequences - what is affected by changing the size of tires and wheels - magazine Behind the wheel

Many motorists ask a similar question, but not everyone decides to deviate from the manufacturer's recommendations.

Replacing regular car wheels is one of the simplest types of tuning. Why is this needed? There are many options. The most common reason is not liking the look. Let's say you want the wheels to look spectacular. To do this, the disk must be larger in diameter. Well, or you bought a used car, and the design of the rims absolutely does not suit you. Perhaps you liked some specific wheels, but their dimension is not included in the list recommended by the car manufacturer. You can also change wheels based on practicality. But how can the installation of such wheels turn out in the future? Let's figure it out.

First, let's remember the key parameters of the wheel.

The main dimensions of the tire: D - outer diameter of the tire; H is the height of the tire profile; B - tire profile width; d is the diameter of the wheel rim (tire).

The traffic police prescribed requirements for converted cars

Next, we will tell the story on the example of tires for a very common size on B-class cars 185/65 R15. These are the popular Rio, Solaris, Logan, Largus, etc. By the way, let me remind you what all these designations mean.

  • 185 - tire section width in mm
  • 65 - tire section height to width percentage
  • R - radial tire designation
  • 15 - bore diameter in inches

So, there are several ways to move away from the standard wheel size .

1. Wider tire

While maintaining the standard size of the rim, we increase the width of the tire profile while maintaining the percentage of height to width. In our example, we get 195/65 R15. It is important to know here that all cars are designed for the installation of snow chains with a size of at least 12 mm. Indeed, in some European countries, driving on mountain roads without chains is prohibited, and not a single self-respecting manufacturer will make a car so that it cannot be operated in the mountains of France or Switzerland. Therefore, an increase in the width of the tire profile is permissible in most cases by up to 24 mm. At the same time, the car will become a little softer on the go, and wider tires will improve braking performance.

2. Higher tire profile

We leave the rim unchanged, and increase the percentage of tire profile height to width to 70. In our example, we get 185/70 R15. The outer diameter of the wheel increases by 20 mm, which is quite acceptable (remember the reserve for installing chains). Everything would be fine, but in our specific example, the factor intervenes that tires of this dimension are produced mainly for commercial vehicles and they are too rigid and expensive to install on a passenger car. However, in other dimensions, the situation may be different.

3. Change the diameter of the disc

The story of a friend's car is quite revealing. He bought a Kia Rio with a 1.6 engine and a 6-speed automatic. The regular wheels of the car had a size of 185/65 R15. The owner drove through the summer season and was not happy with the rigid suspension of the car and insufficient ground clearance. Then he decided to change the behavior of the car, not by tuning the springs with shock absorbers, but by working with the wheels. In preparation for the next summer season, he used forged wheels with a diameter of 14 inches, which completely matched the mounting dimensions.

The previous generation Kia Rio was equipped with 15-inch wheels in the base, but to make the car softer, the owner installed 14-inch wheels with 195/70 R14 tires.

There is noticeably more air between the rim and tire. The outer diameter of the wheel has also grown (by 9 mm). As a result, the smoothness of the ride has become fantastic. When overcoming road roughness, the car, which was not originally famous for its energy-intensive suspension, began to resemble cars of the log-shaped family, which are super-comfortable on Russian roads. Soft, quiet, smooth. All the problems of the dead Russian roads and the rigid Korean suspension have disappeared. He does not plan to drive, so he does not care about the possible deterioration in road holding at very high speeds.

However, disc diameter reduction is very rare. Much more often it happens that the owner chooses discs one or even two sizes larger. And "wraps" them in low-profile tires. At the same time, the overall dimensions of the wheel remain almost unchanged or grow within acceptable limits.

Looks spectacular, but first of all, smoothness suffers. Yes, and there are much more chances to damage a wheel on a bad road, because the lower the height of the tire profile, the less the ability of such a tire to withstand shock loads. In everything you need to know the measure. Returning to our example, Rio and Solaris cars in expensive trim levels sport 16-inch wheels with 195/55 R16 tires. In this case, you can play a little with the sizes. For example, a 195/60 R16 tire will fit in the wheel well without any problems, since its outer diameter will increase by only 19mm. The clearance will grow by a decent 9.5 mm, but you can forget about the softness of the ride provided by the 15-inch wheels of the basic modification.

4. Increasing the width of the disk and changing the offset

It's a different story when a car owner decides to install wider disks. Some people like it when the wheel protrudes a little beyond the arch. Please note that changing the dimensions of the wheel and tire can significantly increase the mass of the wheel assembly. Such weighting will negatively affect the life of the suspension elements and even the body, since large unsprung masses can cause resonant vibrations for which the suspension is not structurally designed. It is also important to remember such a parameter as wheel offset.

Wheel offset is the distance between the plane of symmetry of the rim and the surface adjacent to the vehicle hub. From left to right in the diagram are shown: negative overhang, zero overhang and positive overhang.

Wheel offset is the distance between the plane of symmetry of the rim and the surface adjacent to the vehicle hub. From left to right in the diagram are shown: negative overhang, zero overhang and positive overhang.

Those who like to change the offset of the rims, as a rule, tend to place the wheels wider. The aesthetic component of such changes is controversial, but the resource of the suspension elements will certainly decrease.

It is, of course, possible to pull narrow and inexpensive tires onto rims that look more like solid sections of pipes with flanges, but the deformation of the tire carcass will soon render it unusable. You don't run into many of these.

The consequences of increasing the overall dimensions of the wheel:
9 On our roads, every millimeter of ground clearance counts. If the bottom of the car is 5–10 mm farther from the potholes, then there is less chance of damaging it on a bad road.

PLASS

The wheel may touch body parts. If the width and diameter of the wheel grow no more than 24 mm from the maximum wheel size recommended by the manufacturer, then this problem is not terrible for you. Only after that you can’t put chains.

Economy improvement. Economy improves slightly on country roads, especially on vehicles with gearboxes that have few gears (4 or 5).

Vehicle roll increase. Yes, the roll will increase slightly, due to the fact that the center of mass is now slightly higher. In practice, this means a slightly lower maximum rearrangement speed.

Change the speedometer and odometer. Regular devices always overestimate the readings. You can check by GPS. And with new, slightly larger wheels, the readings will come in line with reality. Plus or minus you decide. Still, such a discrepancy is made primarily for security reasons. We are for accurate instrument readings.

Derating. The new wheels are a little harder for the engine to turn, and they themselves are a little heavier.

Reducing the offset of the discs (when the wheels protrude more out of the wheel arches) provides a wider track, which improves the lateral stability of the machine .

The wide disc is easily damaged by when touching a curbstone. In addition, if the width of the disk is much larger than the standard one, the tire carcass does not work correctly. This leads to increased tire wear .

In most cases, looks more aesthetic and catchy.

Protruding wheels overload the wheel bearings and make driving difficult . As soon as the front wheel hits an uneven road, the steering wheel literally pulls out of your hands.

It is convenient to use a tire calculator for calculations.

Legal

Custom wheels are prohibited by law. Therefore, any experiments with the dimensions of tires or wheels are illegal. An exception is if the new dimension is allowed to be set by the manufacturer. However, in reality, not everything is so scary: if the rims on your small car are not boiled down to a width of 12 inches, if the diameter is not 19 or more inches, then such wheels will not arouse the interest of traffic police officers.
