Make sure to check out also this new video about STEEL vs ALLOY rims: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hw61Feo5scU.html

One of the best and most educative videos I've watched on RU-vid. Good job

This was SO informative and in such a short time! wish every informational video was like this. Peace, brother.

This was amazing man. I'd never thought about the speedometer showing a different speed.

Perfect short video. All I needed. Sound like my friend from Bosnia:D

In this video, we did upgrade of wheels from 15inches to 17inches on Volkswagen VW Jetta 2013 model. This bolt pattern 5x112 fits most of the VW Models like golf, Passat, Scirocco, as well as a majority of Audi models like Audi A3, A4, A6, Q7 and other Audi models with bolt pattern 5x112.

Thank you so much! The best video I have seen on wheel size

It was very informative brother, thank you

Great video! One question, why would the larger wheel size increase the mpg and acceleration if the overall diamiter of the wheel is the same? Thanks!

Great video!!!

Excellent video.. very informative..👍👍

You speak English very well. Thanks for the video friend. Nice car too.

Nice info with careful explanation

Thank you. This video helped me.

Thank you so much! Very useful video. Learnt a lot from this video. Could you please tell me what size tires I should get for the 17inch wheels on my 2018 Skoda Octavia 1.8 TSI. Currently they're running the 16inch wheels.

For a Nissan Sentra S 2017, is it okay to go for 17inch or 18inch? I’m going for aesthetics/look of the car (with comfortability). I’m driving on California roads (LA/Orange County). Thank you for your informative video 🙏🏽

great video brother, watching from canada. wa aleikum salaam

Than you , very informative! Peace and love brother

Thank you. Very useful vid!

Thamk you, learnt a lot from your vid.

Thanks my brother. It's one of the best videos I have watched on tyre education. Please I drive a toyota 4runner 2003 model. The factory rim size is 17 but I want to upgrade to R18. Because I love big Tyres. Which tyre size would you recommend for the R18 which will give me the bigger look tyre without having to do any trimmings on my car. Thanks

I learned a lotttttttt. Walijkoemmassalam from Amsterdam, brother!

Excellent video !

I would count into "less comfort", that bigger tire might also be noticeably noisier.

Great video man, thanks. Was toying with an idea of putting bigger wheels but after watching your video decided against it. Not sacrificing comfort of my ride and fuel economy for looks aka ego. Nobody really cares anyway what car you drive, let alone wheels.

Great video Thanks 😀

If you have very light power steering, harder steering can be a pro in how it feels. Great video.

Thanks a lot bro in this video. Now i stick to my 15” rim stock. Save money and no worry.

Good work man

Very good video!😄👍

Really helpful 👍

jetta gang ;) I had 18x8s for a while. Now I went down to 17x9. Yes my stock wheels were 15

Awesome brother you rock

great work

good job. thanks

great vid thank you

Very useful. Thumbs up

Thanks you very helpful

Great video.

Thank you for the detailed info my brother. Peace

Do larger wheel damage suspension..? And can we calibrate speedo meter for correct reading after installing bigger tyres..!

Very good video & here in AD I salute you bro 🫡

Great video pal . A quick question if getting bigger RIM size as I have Audi A6 2006 with 15 wheels and I want to get 17 s. Will it be better for cornering and grip ?

Good advice

Hi, Thank you so much. I just wanted to ask that I've 2010 Corolla which has 5x100-16" (205-55-16) rims. I found the similar 5x100-17"(205-50-17-Subaru). Would it fit my car? It is ok to use it? Please. Thank you

Hi Sve, Great video I wonder if you could tell me, how much comfort did you lose, on the Jetta A little or a lot Thanks

Hey buddy. I recently changed the factory 16" on my jetta to 18". It was a horrible ride but I learned that the center bore wasn't matched with the rims. I took them back but I am still wanting to change them out. If the bores are corrected and I correct tire size to match the factory specs will I still experience a bumpy ride?

hi i have w221 s class wheel dimensions are Rim Diameter: 18" Rim Width: 8.5J Offset: 43 Stud Pattern: 5 x 112 i was offered the following what would you advise plz as the price is very high for the new ones Centre bore: 66.5 front axle: 245/35R20 95Y Extra Load rear axle: 275/30R20 97Y Extra Load 2 light alloy wheels multi-spoke 8 x 20 inch ET20 2 light alloy wheels multi-spoke 9 x 20 inch ET49

Sallam alaikum. Hello guys. I will get a chevrolet spark this week with stock wheels. Any recomendation on the maximum size i can change for a better look without compromising the stability and performance? Thanks in advance

Amazing video!!! I have a 2022 Nissan Versa basic model with 15" wheels. The highest version has 17". Would that affect my car if I make the change and do you recommend it?

Thanks a lot!😉

I changed my 2009 Hilux 3.0 D4D from 15 to 18 inch. I gotta say it's very difficult to accelerate but once you get to the speed, it feels more comfortable and the engine RPMs are now always low even at high speeds.

Very nice video brother

Hello! I’m driving a Nissan Rogue 2014 SL. I’ve got a 20x9” rims with an offset of 38mm. I don’t know if I gonna need a spacer or washer. Please help me and I want to know if what size of spacers I’m going to put. Thanks

Helpful 🤙🏻

Great video

Hi, thanks for the video very educative. I have a questions. I have a 2014 Toyota Avalon hybrid with stock 215/55/R17 tires and wheels are 17x7 ET40 bolt pattern 5x114.3 . I fall in love with a 20" Wheels with bolt pattern 5x120 20x8.5 ET60 and tires 245/30ZR20. I had to install 1'' adapters. the installation was done by an professional mechanic and it was straight forward. everything fitted perfectly including the center bore. the pros and the cons are exactly what you are described in this video, but the acceleration decreased way more than I was expecting. the cars feel is very heavy and I have to push the pedal way more in order to speed up. the tires are high performance summer tires. do you think if I put all season tires the acceleration will improve? or is not depend on the tires? the cars feel stable and strong I dont feel nothing wron with the ride even a high speed (100mph) do you recommend me to keep them or got to 19 ?

Hi bro, i am planning to change my rim for 1998 honda civic lxi, rim size is 185/65/R14. What should be the best rim for it? Without sacrificing fuel mileage and without damaging the suspension? Thanks in advance.

Very good

Assalamualaikum ❤ thank you for the video brother

The original rim size of my future project is 15” with a 27.4” diameter tire. I will oversized the rim to 19” but to retain the same diameter I will go to a 305/35R19. I don’t know if it’ll fit so I’m looking for a tool to mock-up before purchasing the tires and rims.

Thank you so much 🏌🏾🏌🏾

I can agree with everything except the "less comfort" part

I have passat b8 2.0tdi 2015 150hp currently factory 16rims 215/60/16 I want to upgrade to 18 what is your recommendation?

Great video... I have a Toyota Hiace with Bridgestone RD-613 STEEL tyres 195/R15C that came with it from factory. I’d like to go up to 18” wheels but after seeing this maybe 17’s would be more ideal... What would you recommend, and what tyre size? Thanks in advance

I have a Toyota Yaris 2012 sedan. I don’t know much about this, but I need more stability at high speed. Which rim and tire size do you recommend?

Nice video.

How about tyre pressure? Say on the 15s it is 36/33 front and rear, what will the new tyre pressure be on the 17s?

My car is Toyota Avanza 2010 model with 185/65 R15. Is it recommendable to go for 16”? Hope you can reply ASAP

I have a Lancer GLX which came 185/65/R14 originally, but the previous owner has changed it to 225/45/R17. It has a good grip when cornering. But is it okay for power steering etc.?

Question to ask. When too many passengers, I won't hit the under of car?

Hello I am going to purchse maruthi suzuki XL6 2019.... IT IS HAVING 15 inch tyre... Does having 16/17 size wheel effect comfort and suspension

I drive a 2008 Nissan Altima coupe 2.5s and my factory tire and rim size is 215/60R16. I’m currently about to buy a set of rims and tires which are 265/45R18 for the rear and 235/45R18 for the front. Should I consider switching from 16 to 18?

hey men ive got a citroen c3 1.4 (2007) with a 14 inches steel ugly wheels and i was thinking to go for the 16 inches alloys of the vtr version do you think it would be ok¿?

I have a ‘20 hrv with 18” rims. I wanna switch to16” rims. Will you recommend 235/60/16 tires on it?

You did a GREAT VIDEO make more

hey ive got 16 inch alloys on a mercedes A class 205/55R16. Ive seen some AMG type 18 inch alloys i like is it possible to change to 18 inch alloys from 16 without causing issues to the vehicle ? and if so which ones ?

One very important thing is missing and that is ET(wheel offset, more will explain google). By changing one wheels(rims) with bigger ones, your total diameter of wheels(rim+tire) should stay close to original as possible, if you don't want rubbing on car chassis from vertical tire movement. Also speedometer will be off, abs may act differently and problem with passing a tire homologation. But achieve that, you will need specific size for your car, which probably mean wider tires. With wider tires, you will probably need wider wheels(rims). And that is point where ET come along if you want, your new wheel(rim+tire)(when car is fully loaded or unloaded stock car without chasiss modification) will not rubbing on suspension, inner part of car body, or when car is fully loaded and your wheeels are turned max left or rigt. Et number is specific for every vehicle brand and model. And with changing Rim size parameters , ET number will differ. For example ET number for Golf 7 with 195/65/R15 tires and 6jx15 wheels is 43. For 7,5jx17 sized wheels and 225/45/R17 tires, ET number change to 49.

Would you recommend to change the suspension when upgrading from 15 to 17?

nice video

After upgrading from 185/60 R15 to 195/55 R16 on VW Polo I feel heavy steering and little delay in pickup? Is that normal?

Thanks!
