Thanks! Its the basically the same thing in a much more convenient format - however, it doesn't seem to take into account sidewall profile (which does affect the suggested rim size when pushed to extremes)

This is just one of those days.

On the positive side, its been an experience for me. Can learn from it.

Lol. Live and learn. Its the best way.

I am interested in the widths.

I think its safe to bet on a 5.5" width. (Mayyybe 5", but not more than 5.5 for sure).

hi everyone,

i just got a new set of rims & tyres for my Getz. 15" 6.5J rims with Yokohama 195/50 R15 S-Drives.

SumitBahl · 1st March 2010, 21:36

Thanks Sumit. The brand is "Velocity". Got the tyres & rims from BKTyre Lajpat Nagar.

SumitBahl · 1st March 2010, 22:14

How much did the wheels cost?
Fit and finish looks really good.

Did you paint the cap red? (Looks good!!)

Caroholic, the brand is Veloche not Velocity. Jitesh (of BKT) has the same brand on his ride.

^ Hey, this was my guess for the Ritz only.
Linea i am not sure, since its a 15" rim.

The car looks FANTASTIC!

However, it owuld have been better if you had bought 195/55 R15 instead of 195/50 R15.

Ride quality would have been better, it would have been cheaper and risk of damaging your tyres is much lesser.

Classic 5 spoke "Neo" wheels on my Esteem.

What do you guys think???

Hey everyone. There are some great wheels on this thread. I first became a member of team-bhp looking for a review for the beat. Browsing through this thread is what made me lust for alloys on my car. So i finally got my set of wheels and here are the pics. And i guess this must be the first beat upgraded to alloys on the forum

^ Your rims look great and gel with the car perfectly! How much did you pay for them?

anekho · 2nd March 2010, 01:56

Congrats! The Beat looks great (black has got to be it's best colour!) and the rims complement it nicely! A little larger and wider tires would have filled the wheel wells nicely but at the cost of the ride quality I guess!

How much was it (tire + rim)?
