tyres/alloys
« on: May 13, 2009, 19:59:15 »
i have aquired a nice set ot range rover classic alloys and would like to fit them to my 110, and ive got a couple of questions-

can i fit 235/85 16s to wheels that have 245/70 16 on at the moment?
how will 235/85s compare to 7.50 16s, hieght wise?

and lastly is it my imagineation or do insa turbo do a copy of bfg trac edges? is anyone on here using them and are they any good? i like insas in general.

thanks (again), william

No, they are not rated for a 110. The only alloys that are rated are mach 5 etc or boosts.
They shouldnt be much different in terms of weight, it all depends on the type of tyre fitted as the stronger the tyre, the heavier it tends to be.

alright then time to clutch  at straws, :D there not standard 3 spoke rangie alloys, they are 5 spoke "smiths high performance"  does it make any difference?
is the weight  limit for wheels stamped on them anywhere?

looks like ill be selling them then, check the for sale section soon. shame tough as theyll look really good with a quick clean :afro:
