changing tire size but same rims

[arkircc]

i have 185 55 R15 good year nct 5 tires and they are all 5 to 7 years old already and im planning to change them. that size are hard to find and expensive. Can I change size to 195 50 R15 using the same rims? or please recommend me a good tires that fits to my rims and yet good quality and budget wise. I prefer Indonesia or japan made, no to china and taiwan brands.

good day! for what car sir?
195/50 R15 is fine, been using it for years on my EK SiR. if you prefer the stock / non lowered look, 195/55 will do fine. just make sure the rims are wide enough to accomodate the new tires.

Japan tires are plenty. indonesia brands, i prefer gajah tunggal.

rule of thumb is +/-3% of OEM diameter size

hyundai getz 1.1 model 2006 sir. do 195/50 R15 or 195/55 R15 are common and easy to find? and the price?

rule of thumb is +/-3% of OEM diameter size

what do you mean sir?

[jodski]

Try to check out Kumho Solus series and compare the price baka naman makakuha ka pa ng reasonable deal getting the same size na gamit mo.

By experience and personal preference lang its either Yokohama A drive or Kumho Solus. Plus side ng A drive tahimik and maganda talanga handling while sa Solus naman medyo maingay pero above average pa rin naman performance and mas mura sa A drive.

Your call naman sir on what to get and good luck hunting for a new set of wheels

dapat ung tire diameter is within +/- 3% compared OEM tire diameter.

for example, kung 100mm ung diameter nung stock tires, 97~103mm ang pwede mo ipalit.

[joemarski]

* Diameter inches (mm):
Old (185/55/R15): 23.01 (584.5)
New (195/50/R15): 22.68 (576)
Difference: -0.33 (-8.5) -1.5%

The difference says that the Tire Diameter was reduced by 1.5% (-1.5%).
So, pasok pa siya sa "rule of thumb" in choosing the right tire size (+/- 3%).
Usually, 'pag more than 3% kasi, you might need some modifications to avoid "rubbing". hth.

actually, pwede yang 185/50/15.... pwede ka din gumamit ng 195/55/15 or 195/50/15.

[vinj]

195/55R15 should be good.

[arkircc]

pag uwi ko ill check the rim width, yung 185 na existing tires naman kasi di naman naka protrude yung side wall,

go for it. i personally prefer the 50 series. pics naman ser when done.

ill try to post pics later, magiipon muna ko pambili hehe

For more comfort and grip go for 195/55/15. Pero ano ba lapad ng mags mo sir? Basta 6 inches and more, pwede na yun lapad na 195 na tires. Anything lower than that, parang nakaprotrude yun sidewall ng tires mo nun. Neuton tires are made from Indonesia and are recommended by auto shops who specialize in track setup. For 195/55s, mga P2.5k each or less if set. If you want made in Japan, go for Toyo DRBs or Dunlop LMs. Mga P3k exact or P3k+ each na yun. If you want cheaper like P2k each tire, China brands na yun. Afaik, for this size: 185 55 R15 - bang for the buck na yun Kumho Ecstas for P3k or less each. Pero baka Taiwan or Vietnam made to. Korean-made tires are also priced at P3k or less for 15" sizes. It will also depend on your location so you have access sa tire shops who give good discounts on tires purchased in set.

ok ill check that neuton tire reviews first. yung kumho ecsta medyo pricey pero check ko na din.

actually, pwede yang 185/50/15.... pwede ka din gumamit ng 195/55/15 or 195/50/15.

ill try 195 55 r15 kasi mukang madameng pwedeng pagpilian sa size na to.

[FJaY]

Magtanong ka sa mga Jiga tyre shops sir just call for pricing ng Kumho Ecsta KU31 and Neuton NT5000 na 195/55r15 and ask if how much if set kukunin mo.
