cool wheels , Satya!
Say, whats the break up?
I asked about 145/70 r13 bridgestone donuts at an "authorized dealer" and he said 2100 per tyre.

speedsatya · 16th November 2004, 13:29

its around 2500rs for the rims,1800 for the tires and some discounts and abt 800rs for my old tire and rim.
it cost me abt 16k total along with the sparco mud flaps which cost around 850

His numbers :649.3819

GTO

international tyre and saifee behind choksi are supposed to be the best.
i did not have the time ,so i got one from mulund,as the looks were secondary to me,it was the wider tire that mattered.as u do not have much options for a rim on the zen

manson · 18th November 2004, 20:43

hey.. guys...
I have a wagon R. Want to change the tyres.
currently running 145/70 R13

I wanted Michelin Certis but .. i guess they aren't available for 155/65 R13....
Next option is 165/60 R13 (available in Michelin)

Ride height will decrease by 5mm... but.. that shouldn't be a problem.
But is 165 too much for a wagonR too..... for zen it sometimes does touch the body.

I think 165 would be ok.... as maruti gives 155 .. so 1 upsize shouldn't cause much problem.

What do you say?

speedsatya · 2nd January 2005, 21:49

155/65r13 can be safely fitted on a wagon r as the new vxi has this tire.165/60r13 also has accpetable OD .these can be fit with 5j or 5.5j rims
the enxt upsize is 185/55r13.but for that u will have to check if the 185 tire touches anywhere
