fury wheels

Postby mazie » Tue Aug 16, 2011 5:09 pm

Hi all, the fury is not far from being finished after its crash. Im looking at new wheels ( team dynamics 1.2).
what sizes are people running? I was going for 15x7 all round with 205 on the rear and 195 on the front.

any suggestions?

I've got 13's et18. Fronts are 6.5j rears are 7j with 185/60/13 front and 205/60/13 Toyo 888's.
I had 15" on initially then soon bowed to the advice that 13" would be better... and they are.

I prefer the look of 13"s I think it give it a much more retro look.
When u say improved what was the noticeable difference? What are tyres options like these days on 13"s , it's been a few years since i ran them

Ride quality was better on 13" Much smoother and less harsh. grip was better with less skipping on bumps. Lower rotational weight is better and acceleration certinly also felt better.

Not as many tyres available in 13" but what there are, are better suited to a light weight car.
