Robert Bannister (ROBBIE180) Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi, this has probably been asked loads before.... looking to change alloys and maybe go bigger. Would 7x15 with 205/50/15 tyres fit? At the moment I have 6.5x15 with 195/50/15 tyres. I’ve worked out the ET value to be 38. I’ve measured the front wheel guards and they are 220 mm wide on the inside. The car is a 2003 sei 1800 model. Cheers for any help Rob.

BenD Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Better to go smaller on a westy than bigger. Or stick with 15s. Bigger wheels will make the ride harsh and alter the nature of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenD Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Unless you meant bigger as in wider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy (Sycho) Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Most do run 205x50x15 tyres on 15x7 rims but they are usually et23 ish unless it's an SDV kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Bannister (ROBBIE180) Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 I must have the only set of team dynamics without the offset stamped on the back ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Bannister (ROBBIE180) Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 The car is a modular build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy (Sycho) Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The stamp is very hard to see sometimes as it's printed on, saying that I've not seen it on mine but I've not really looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy (Sycho) Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Are you sure they are 6.5 rims? Even if they are depending what tyres your using 205 will fit on 6.5 here's toyo's spec https://www.toyo.co.uk/tire/pattern/proxes-r888 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be there, very hard to see, almost a hologram on the inside of the inside rim, mine(below) says e15 for the offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
