I ended up with Advan Racing 15" and Michelin PS3 195/50/R15.

However, when I got out to the highway I felt vibration when I'm driving about 110km/h which did not happen before changing the rims and tires. This is mostly due to the balancing right?

Hey, where did you get this set of wheels?

15 inch 8jj offset 20，myvi1.5 not lowered, tyre 195/55/15 will this type of set up can fit into myvi nicely? any problem with that?

 

[spoon civic]

Planning to upsize mine to 15" and was thinking of 195/55/R15 as well. With a budget of say plus minus RM200 (maximum around RM220) per piece, what are some options I have? Any list of tires from RM200 below all the way up to the maximum I'm willing to fork out at RM220 per piece?

Also, while 195/55/R15 seems to be good, why are many shops recommending 195/50/R15 instead?

Your opinions are very much appreciated.

use achilless atr sport 195/55/15 around below rm200 each...or yokohama parada 195/50/15..the price in the same range....kl rate....

8JJ to wide for 195 size tyres. 6 to 6.5J is enough.
Again offset 20 is too far out. Myvi, if not mistaken use offset 40 just nice

cause recently i found a 15 inch rim on mudah, rota grid TE37 acutally, it's look really nice... but offset and rim are too wide but seriously the spoke curve in damn nice!... any other rim got almost the same design? as im look those 15 inch rim spoke that curve from the hub out to the end of the lip... any suggestion?

Can't help you with rim design. You have to see it to love it. However for Myvi you have to keep the offset at around 40 or slightly more.

if offset 35 cannot? why? :hmmmm: cause i saw few myvi with bbs rim offset 35.. so if we put offset 35 what will happen?

Offset 35 will look better with wheels coming out more. Problems faced will be tyre scrubbing the rear wheel outer fender, if use 195/55R15 when carrying heavy load.
195/50R15 maybe okay.
You can try rolling the fender or using stiffer springs.....

Hi all, I am currently on 195/55/R15 (rim is 6.5jj width and 37mm offset, using Eibach Pro-Kit springs on stock absorbers which I get about 3 fingers gap for the rear. When there's no load behind then it is fine but if I carry just 1 person behind also I tend to hear some sort of sound from the rear when the road is uneven or very rough.

I know 195/55/R15 isn't exactly the ideal size but I like it for its balance of performance and comfort and also it fills up the fender area nicely.

What are the possible solutions for this apart from changing back to 195/50?

Are your tires/rims sticking out of the fenders? You can post a photo here so it's clearer how it looks before we can suggest anything.

Other than using 195/50, you need to harden the suspension. If that cannot be done then you need to use inner offset rims like offset 42. Another option is to check where the scrubbing is? If fender is scrubbing maybe rolling the fender might help...

Whats your current spring rate? I guess perhaps the cheapest solution is adding spring bush but that doesnt confirm will solve the problem as well. The best solution is go back to 195/50

Do you mean spring buffers? Or to install a customer absorber mounting so it's taller? Don't do spring buffers with such expensive Eibach springs.

His idea was to lower, now ask him make higher, not stable dy....

 

[6UE5t]

Well if his rims are already sticking out of the fenders due to not enough offset then the proper solution is change the rims! All the others are work around which are not the right solution.

Offset in can custom spacer out. Rim offset out need to change dy, will be expensive.
Offset 37 is a bit out because friend have similar problem with offset 35, and that is 2mm difference only. Offset 40 and 42 should be much safer

Yes can be expensive but that's the price to pay for choosing the wrong rims in the first place. That's why I keep telling people if want to buy rims, must first try it on the car with the tires so you can see how it will exactly fit.
