Accurate selection of wheels and tires: with RU-SHINA you can't go wrong
We offer to do it right on our website. It will take no more than 1 minute, and you will get confidence that the proposed options are guaranteed to fit the car and will not change its driving characteristics.
Selection of tires and wheels by car brand: features of the procedure
Our site has an extensive database of tires and wheels for cars of various makes and models. When forming it, data obtained directly from manufacturers is used, which makes it possible to avoid errors in the selection. We regularly make the necessary changes to the database (with the release of restyled models, after a change of generations, etc.).
Implement selection of tires and wheels by car brand On our website, you can do one of two things:
- Using the dropdown form at the top of the page
- Step by step selecting your car from the list of available
In both cases car tire selection and disks is carried out according to the following principle:
- You need to select a manufacturer
- Next, indicate the model of the car
- Then choose the year
- After that, modification
IMPORTANT
When selecting tires and wheels for a car, we recommend that you specify all the parameters, up to the modification (engine). This is due to the fact that even for machines of the same model year different sizes can be provided. And if you ignore this, the discs or tires may simply not fit into their regular place (the bore diameter, the number of holes, the distance between them and other parameters will not match), or driving performance and the handling of the car will noticeably worsen. When choosing on our website, this situation will not happen, because. the system will offer options ONLY AFTER COMPLETE DETAILS about the car are specified.
Selection results:
By implementing selection of wheels for the car specific make and model, after entering the required data, you get the results with the number of units available. Doing car tire selection or wheels on our website, you will have to choose from offers that include original products, as well as tuning options. At the same time, all offered by RU-SHINA alternative tires and discs are sized within the tolerance specified by the manufacturer. And their installation on the car will not affect its behavior on the road and safety..
Auto disks are not only a fashionable accessory that can transform the exterior of your car, but also the basis for handling and reliable grip of the car with pavement. Presented products today are divided into three main categories:
- stamped discs;
Stamped wheels consist of a disc and a rim welded together. On the body of the products there are holes that provide ventilation for the calipers. Such products are made of rolled metal by stamping, after which they are treated with a primer or varnish, which prevents the formation of rust.
Stamped auto disks have a number of advantages, including:
low cost;
increased reliability;
possibility of use when driving on rough roads.
In an emergency or when hitting a large pit, the products are deformed (rather than broken), which can be simply corrected in most modern service stations. The appearance of fixtures can be decorated with caps.
An alloy or cast car wheel is cast from a special aluminum alloy that can withstand critical loads. During production, the alloys are poured into a special mold and cooled in a vacuum environment to minimize scrap. Aluminum is difficult to contaminate due to the formation of a protective oxide film upon contact with salt. In addition, such wheels for cars have a significantly lower weight than similar products of other classes.
The advantages of light-alloy models also include a wide variety of shapes and colors, which allows the driver to express his individuality.
Prices for alloy wheels are in a wide range. Suffice it to say that aluminum wheels are installed on the car by manufacturers already in stock configurations, not only on premium, but also on budget cars. Popular manufacturers include Russian companies Vikom, K&K, as well as foreign ones - Alessio, AEZ, BBS, Artec, Rondell.
Forged wheel rims are also made from magnesium and aluminum alloys. These samples have the highest price of the presented goods, however, they also differ in the greatest margin of safety and durability. Forged wheels have a multi-stage fibrous structure that significantly increases their load capacity.
Models have increased resistance to the formation and spread of corrosion. Aerodynamic tests show that it is this type of wheel that can increase the acceleration speed and maneuverability of the car. Even under the influence of maximum loads, such devices do not bend or crack. Due to the high price, forged wheels are installed mainly on premium cars and sports cars.
When choosing discs for your car, you must proceed from the estimated cost, purpose of use and place of application of the devices. Alloy wheels are suitable for connoisseurs of exquisite design, forged wheels are an option for motorsportsmen and tuning enthusiasts, and for thrifty people who value reliability, stamped models are suitable.
The Express-Shina website in Moscow presents a wide catalog of discs for every taste. You can place an order by calling the call center or leaving your contact details in the online application. Our managers will provide you with all the information you need about the selected product.
When selecting discs, it is necessary to take into account the parameters and quality car rims. Rims and wheels in general are considered a very important part of a car, respectively. selection rims must be accurate. Because well-chosen and well-chosen rims in the future will affect the level of contact of the car with the road surface, the smoothness of the ride and ease of control. In addition, from the choice of certain rims trajectory will depend stopping distance. For accurate and correct selection disks for a car, it is imperative to know all the parameters of the disk. After all, only the right parameters will help determine the wheels for your car, as well as significantly improve the aerodynamic qualities of the car and prevent premature tire wear.
Select rims by car make
When selecting car rims it is necessary to take into account a number of mounting parameters, which include the center distance to the hub, the width of the rim, the diameter and density of the axial hole of automobile disks. In order to independently determine all these parameters, you must have sufficient experience and skills, or spend time studying all these data and all sorts of nuances.
It has long been known that car wheels are almost a quarter of the total surface area of the car. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that most car owners strive to give their car ambition and individuality, while trying to choose wheels for cars, which will be the most suitable for the needs of motorists. Today, most car owners use cast wheel rims therefore, a large demand creates an offer. Such a variety of proposed models can greatly complicate the selection process. That is why the correct selection of the parameters of car rims is considered necessary in order to be able to evaluate the whole picture as a whole.
Today sale of tires and alloy wheels rather considered a matter of trust. Because if you take into account a huge number of disc manufacturers and tires, buyers are often confused at the time of selection. Besides selection of wheels It is considered a rather complicated process that requires certain knowledge and skills in this area, since the choice also concerns the load and other permissible vehicle parameters.
For example, stamped car rims are considered the cheapest of all existing types of rims. That is why such models of rims are installed mainly on budget cars. In addition, it is these rims that are considered the most durable and practically indestructible. Therefore, unlike all other existing types automobile wheels, only stamped rims do not unfold with a strong impact, but only bend. Stamped car wheels are very easy to restore, after which they are used further.
How to choose the right wheels for the car?
To do right choice and choose the right rims except for the knowledge of all important parameters it is necessary to distinguish between types of disks. In addition to the cheapest stamped discs, there are also alloy wheels, the main advantage of these light alloy wheels their relative lightness is considered. Standard cast wheels, which are made of aluminum, are about a kilogram lighter than iron car rims.
In addition, cast wheels are almost completely resistant to corrosion, besides, the manufacturing technology of these wheels provides an excellent opportunity to give them absolutely any shape, and this is too important for design.
But you shouldn’t idealize cast car wheels, because if an iron disk breaks, you can reanimate it very easily, but if microcracks appear on the cast car disk or the disk just cracked, unfortunately, this cannot be corrected and restored.
In addition to stamped and cast car wheels, there are also forged wheels. This type of rims is considered the same stamping, only hot. At the time of production of forged wheels, manufacturers use magnesium and aluminum alloys. Of all existing types of car rims forged wheels are considered the easiest. The difference between forged wheels and alloy wheels is that at the moment of impact, they do not crack, forged wheels simply bend, which is why they can always be repaired.
But if a motorist wants his car to look stylish, fashionable and beautiful, forged wheels will not be a very suitable option.
Recently stamped and forged car rims have been replaced by cast rims. Experts say that competent conduct selection of alloy wheels showcase your great sense of style. And it is simply impossible to argue with this, because the selection of rims is a necessary and important detail for any car, and besides, it is part of the image component. Therefore, most modern car owners do not save at all on the purchase of high-quality rims and do the right thing.
Internet shop of tires and disks "Dilijans" offers motorists a huge selection of high-quality car rims for various car brands.
From the post-war years to the early nineties, the owners domestic cars, did not have a headache at all, what rim use on your car. There was a Muscovite one with five “holes”, a Zaporizhzhya one with a huge central hole, with four, and a large (already 14-inch) Volgovsky one. There was also a huge, 16-inch Niva disk with five holes, but, oddly enough, it was replaced by individual amateurs with Volgovsky. Now, the variety of rims is such that sometimes you can’t do without a catalog or the all-knowing Internet.
But let's consider everything in order: what characteristics you can play a little when choosing and what requirements must be met without fail.
First about the center
Usually a story about rims begins with a diameter, width and appearance. Although, when choosing a disc, first of all it is necessary to assess whether it can be screwed to the car.
The most important are the following parameters:
- number of holes for studs or bolts;
- the diameter of the circle on which these holes are located;
- diameter central hole in disk (DIA);
- disc ejection.
Now let's look at these options in more detail. We note right away that the first two must match those recommended by the manufacturer strictly.
The central hole in diameter can be equal to the native one or be slightly larger. Sellers in such cases usually offer special rings that compensate for the difference in diameter.
The international designation ET is from the German word Einpresstiefe. The smaller the overhang, the larger the track of the car. The wheel protrudes from the wheel arch of the vehicle. There are also wheels with negative offset.
Departure is one of the most important indicators of the wheel, affecting the stability and controllability of the car. With a reduced reach, on “widely” spaced wheels, the force on the steering wheel increases significantly, as well as the load on the hub bearings. A wheel with an extended reach is offset deep into the wheel arch and can, when cornering or large suspension travel, touch the elements of the car, which will lead to damage. When selecting, it is not recommended to deviate from the nominal overhang by more than 3-5 mm in one direction or another.
Diameter and width
Rim diameter is usually listed in inches. It must correspond to the landing diameter of the tire.
The width of the rim is the distance between its edges. Usually it is also indicated in inches, although manufacturers give the width of the tire in millimeters. The current trend is to increase the width of wheel rims and, accordingly, tires.
These two parameters (diameter and width) people like to tune. Most often, they strive by all means to increase the landing diameter and width of the disk. At the same time, the tire, in order to fit in the wheel arch, becomes low-profile, which warms the soul of many. But at the same time, one should not forget about GOST for the depth of holes on our roads - there is such a document! A pit up to 5 cm deep and with a sharp edge has a right to exist. And no one will be punished if you damage your car in it. Now imagine what will happen to low-profile tires in such, even "GOST" pit. For example, when regular disks Hyundai cars 15 and 16 inches in diameter, the owners contrive to put on Solaris ... 18-inch! For example, with a tire size 215/35 R18, this solution provides a gap of only 75 mm between the tire seat and the road. Such a tire, most likely, will suffer (you can break through the bead) even in a “allowed” hole.
However, there is an alternative approach. The bottom line is to try to put the disks of the minimum size, only so that they do not cling to brake mechanisms, and the diameter to "catch up" with high-profile . Of the advantages of this method, it should be noted the softness of the stroke and more low price tires of small diameter. For example, chassis design Hyundai Solaris(and platform Kia Rio) allows you to use 14-inch discs. And with a tire with a dimension of 195/70 R14, quite normal wheels are obtained - a little higher (less than 3%) of relatives, with a dimension of 185/65 R15. But the softness of the move becomes like that of Renault Logan.
It should be noted that the same options for using discs of different diameters are also implemented on crossovers. For example, on Nissan X-Trail the previous generation, you can install 16-inch wheels, which is clearly indicated by the roll of this diameter. And the car came off the assembly line with 17- and then with 18-inch wheels. Although there are cases of using wheels up to 20 inches. Here, too, the only question is what you want to get: a car that gravitates towards an SUV or a hard “sports shed”. The main thing is to know the measure in everything, because the engine with the gearbox does not change.
What has VAZ changed?
Now let's talk about how the VAZ betrayed its size. Even on the progenitor, the FIAT-124 car, a circle diameter was used, on which the bolt holes were located, equal to 98 mm. And since then, this size has been strictly observed on all VAZ cars, except for the Niva and Oka.
By the way, the Italians are true to tradition. For example, on FIAT Albea, which was officially sold in Russia, it was possible to attach a wheel from VAZ.
At the same time, the landing diameter gradually increased from 13 to 14 inches over the years and the change of models. But the most recent Grants, Kalinas and Priors still use the 4x98 size.
But with the advent of the French B0 platform, cars with a “round” size of 4x100 rolled off the assembly line of the Volga Automobile Plant. These are Largus and XRAY. Vesta can be added to the same list. This is how the VAZ changed its historical size. Changed with the "Frenchwomen" ...
InterchangeabilityIt follows from the story above that on a long journey, in case of urgent need, the owner of Grants, Kalina or Priora may ask to borrow (sell) the spare tire from the owner. And, accordingly, vice versa. If the tire dimensions do not match, the wheel can be attached at least rear axle, hobbled to the tire fitting.
The next, perhaps the largest in the world, is the 4x100 club. This size had medium-sized and rather old cars from VW, Opel, as well as Daewoo, Chevrolet. On folk favorites Hyundai Solaris / Kia Rio, the same size is applied. Well, let me remind you that all Logans of the first and second generations, and after them the latest VAZ developments, also have a size of 4x100. Disc offsets may vary slightly, but almost all fall within the 40-52mm range. For example, on a long journey along fairly broken roads to Chevrolet Aveo I once preferred to ride on discs from the third Golf, which were previously on the SEAT Cordoba. 14 inches versus 15, with the same outer diameter of the tire. Didn't bring a hernia!
In the world there is a very wide variety of fastening designs rim to the hub. The number of holes on a passenger car can be from 3 to 6. Modern trends are an increase in the number of bolts or nuts for fastening a wheel to five, even on small cars. For example, on the VW Polo, in addition to the fact that five bolts are used, the thread also has the following characteristics: M14x1.5. This, by the way, is the size of the bolt threads of much more massive Mercedes sedans and crossovers. On the other hand, four bolts with modest M12x1.25 parameters on a rather massive Citroen car C4 is somehow forced to strain when a tire changer with a powerful wrench comes to the car. I would not have broken the thread - there have been cases ...On the long road
In principle, if you have a spare wheel, or at least when traveling near your place of residence, you can not bother about the interchangeability of rims. But I can advise before a long journey to figure out what wheels from which common cars can fit yours. Would it come in handy?
