Civicsport5 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Basically what are the things I need to know before bidding on some wheels for my 2000 mb3 1.5 I know there 4 stud 15" but that's all I know for certain and I need tyres so I might as well go for wheels with good tyres fitted!

hickster Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 In addition you should know that the centre bore is 56.1mm, your car is hub-centric so larger sizes (aftermarket alloys) will need spigot rings, smaller sizes (pilfered from early Mazda or Toyotas) you will need a machine shop to rebore them for you. Most Vauxhall and Rover are 56.1mm, VAG are 57mm (usually can be bodged). If you get lower than about ET38 on the offset the handling may tend to tramline a bit. I would recommend sticking to 195/50/r15 tyres if you want to keep any kid of torque from an MB3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
