Changing r14 for r13 - Olij86 - 06-11-2014 I have a 306 meridian and i am wanting to fit a set of r13 winter tyres and steels onto it. I normally have the standard r14 wheels. Are these compatible re arch clearance turning clearance etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. [/align] RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Mattcheese31 - 06-11-2014 I think they'll fit, well they might, brake calliper clearance may be the issue, if they fit then they fit ![]() RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Olij86 - 06-11-2014 So if i can do up the nuts and the brakes work there is no other reason they shouldnt fit? Would it be best to test the fronts or the rears ? RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Toms306 - 06-11-2014 Which age and engine do you have? 13s will only fit over 247mm calipers. RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Seb_Ryan - 06-11-2014 If they where too big to cover the breaks you wouldnt even fit them on, so yeah. Speedo will over read abit more though might be doing 35mph on Speedo and 30mph real time like RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Olij86 - 06-11-2014 (06-11-2014, 05:10 PM)Toms306 Wrote: Which age and engine do you have? Its a 2000/2001 1.6 meridian RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Piggy - 06-11-2014 It will likely have 266 brakes (not breaks) and the 13s wont fit RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Olij86 - 06-11-2014 Thanks for your help RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Toms306 - 06-11-2014 I guess it's X reg if it could be 2000 or 2001, in which case it should be 266's as Piggy says. RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Olij86 - 07-11-2014 How important is the width? I can buy 165 65 r14s on steels these are narrower than the 185s i have at the moment on my alloys. What would this effect? RE: Changing r14 for r13 - Piggy - 07-11-2014 165s are TINY!!! Even 106 pov spec come with 175s!! |
