• Hallo leute

    Mein Duetsch ist nicht mehr so gut, aber ich probiere es.

    Ich hab ein zeit mit 16\" felgen gefahren. Aber ich habe ein Swift GS und kein GT(i). Mit 16\" geht alles langsamer.

    Jetzt will ich zurück zu 13\" aber mit platte reifen. Wo finde ich diese felgen und reifen?

    Vielleicht verkauft iemand sein felgen.

    For a while I have driven with 16\" rims. But the car got very slow. So now I want to go back to 13\" rims. But 13\" is standard for my car and I want something special. So I want 13\" rims with low tires. But what dimensions must the rims and tires have?

    I want wider rims than standard rims.

    Maybe someone sells their rims??

    Nederlands:

    Hoi, ik wil van 16\" velgen terug naar 13\" velgen, maar wil dan bredere velgen met plattere banden. Weet iemand waar ik die kan kopen??? enWeet iemand welke afmetingen allemaal mogelijk zijn?

  • hi Thieuke,
    welcome to the board.

    problem with the low tires on 13\" rims is the much space left between the tires and the car. (was heißt radhaus auf englisch?)

    another ist the speed-indicator. with too low-tires you need to adjust.


    try 14\" rims with 185/50 tires. maybe you get a picture of them.

  • yes they are sold already, sorry. I now have original 13\" 5 spoke rims from Suzuki.

    I know the speed-indicator will be giving the wrong information, but that\'s no problem. Just have to find out which speeds the car really goes when the speed-indicator shows 30, 50, 70,80,100 and 120.

    the space between the car and the weels is also no problem. My car is already lowered 4 cm , and will be lowered more when the 13\" rims are on the car.

    In holland so far I\'ve found 1 (one) shop that sells 13\" rims. Like these:

    I hope in Germany there is more choise although these are very nice.

  • i think that those rims are availabe with 4 x 98 up to 4 x 114,3 with 14\". you can get them at RIEGER_TUNING. what about ronal turbo, whow do you like them. they look familiar.

  • Yes they where my old rims. They costed me 600 euro\'s with tires. But new they cost 1100 euro.

    call me crazy that I sold them, but I really want 13\" back. 16\" is to much for a non-GTi.

  • Does abybody knows which size tires I need. I\'ve seen dunlop SP9000, 195/45 R 13 and 205/50 R 13. I want them so low as possible. Maybe in Germany there\'s more and lower sizes available?????

  • I heard that the rims are probably cheeper in Germany than in The Netherlands. Does anybody have a good adress near the Dutch-German border where I can go look????
