Rim width is the distance across the rim of the wheel, from the outside rim to the inside rim.
The wider the rim width, the wider the tyre you will need.

By going to a wider rim, you may encounter problems with the tyre fouling the bodywork in bump and/or steering lock.

what is lemon law?


Only the car manufacturer, or someone else who has already investigated the issue, can tell you if your particular car (you don't say what make, model or year it is) can accommodate 7" wide wheels without bodywork modifications and/or modifications to the steering rack to reduce the lock to prevent fouling on the inner wheel arch. A good wheel dealer may be able to help.

Also be careful with changing the offset - this is the distance between the centreline of the wheel (mid-point of the rim width) and the mounting face. If you change the offset you change the position of the loads on the suspension components, which may lead to failure in the future.

Not a complete expert so if anyone knows please correct me............a word of warning!!

when is the best time of the year to buy a car?


If you change the diameter of your wheels on your car........you may be at risk of inadvertantly adjusting your speedo reading. By increasing the diameter you are actually changing the speed ratio..........Smaller wheels mean faster acceleration from standing start.........Larger wheels mean faster overall speed (I think it is that way round). This happened to a friend of mine by changing from 14" to 16" wheels. Got caught in a speed trap and was over the speed limit in force. Changing the wheels had altered the speedo reading by 7 miles per hour.........and no excuse in court.........result....fine and penalty points!

Wheels mark Imperial, or metrical. Metrical has bead retentions running flat, Austin uses 315mm on Metro and 365 mm on the Montego, all crap, tyre vere expense vere crap , need tule to change Imperials changing mit screwdrifer, is easy.
