    Stock Size for Wheels

    OK guys, I am a complete dummy when it comes to understanding wheels sizes: what is the stock dimensions of a 1991 Honda Accord EX F22A4 (even tho I'm pretty sure the engine doesn't matter, I'll put it)? I'm looking at Volk Racing TE37 Bronze wheels. What lug size/offset or whatever size I need to know are stock size on my car? Thanks in advance guys!! I'm completely lost when it comes to wheel sizes

    Please learn to type!!

    No offense, but read the stickies. That information can be found anywhere (including on the side of your tires) Steelies are 185.70.14 Alloys are 195.60.15. Lug pattern is 4X114.3, offset is about 55, IIRC. You've got some play with the offset, but not a lot or you'll rub.

    Also, your sig is fucking HUGE! You're allowed 300 pixels in height total x 500 pixels in width total, (including text) although Deev has been known to let it be wider. He's also been known to take away sig privileges for size violations.

      Ahh, thanks for the notice man. I will correct that ASAP...i figured the size would be auto correcting

        First number ie: 195 is the tread width in millimeteres. Middle number, ie: 60 is the sidewall height in MM and the last number, ie: 15 is the tire diameter in inches.

        195/60/15 Tread Width/Sidewall Height/Tire Diameter

        Simple stuff. Find a tire size calculator online to help calculate the correct size of larger wheel you need to stay within your stock overall diameter to keep your speedo accurate.

        I had 205/60/15s on my car and put 215/35/18s on it and they ae the same overall diameter.

          just so you know the second number is not the height in millimeters, but more so ever an aspect ratio of the tire width

          example a 195-50-15 would have a shorter side wall than a 245-50-15 being the rims widths are proportionate of one another(so the tires aren't stretched or ballooned)
