Hi, from my humble opinion, 17" or 18" rims will affect your car's performance quite a bit. But, if u prefer bigger rims n all, go for it then. :tongue: He, he... Yah, if u were to install to big a rim, your tires might scrape your car's fenders when cornering, etc.

Just my 2 cents...

yah, if u use bigger rims, ur performance will drop a little, especially ur pick up... but of coz it will be nice with 17" or 18"... add some bodykits and lower ur car jz a little... not too much or it will scrap ur fenders...
try to search around for a nice set of rims... coz the tyres aint cheap for 17" and 18"....

as for your problem ... for a wira ... it is recommended to use 16'inch rims ... although i am using a 17 inch rims last time when i still driving a wira ... if you still remains the Stock condition ... 15inch with the car lowered will be the best ... for the size of the tyre ... it will be more suitable if you use the 215/45/17 ... 205/40/17 is not recommended ... it will easily get Pregnant ... lolz ... if you wanted to use the 18inch ... i think wira can only fits in 215/35/18 .. which is not really worth installing ... i attatched a pic of my previous wira ... its using 205/40/17 which caused me alot of problem ... if there's anything that i can help ... just PM me ... thanks =) enjoy your Mod

for wira, if not mistaken, rims width 7in to 8in is fine. offset from +38 to +48.
tyres if ur using 17", shud use 205/40 or 205/45. use 215/40 if ur putting on 8JJ rim at de back.
for 18" rim, if not mistaken, mostly at least wud b 7.5JJ, so u need to put 215/40 or 215/35 tyres for it. after putting in either 17" or 18", ur car definately will b higher, if u wanna lower it, better u get a rim with offset from +45 to +48, these r inner, so wont easily rub ur fender. other than tat, take out or cut de fender inner part can also prevent ur tyre fr rubbing it.
but certainly, if ur engine is stock, ur gonna loose alot of power. but if ur goin for look. :) why not...
jus my idea.
cheers...

Maybe u should go for 16" rims, a compromise between looks n performance. If u r going for bigger rims (e.g. 17" or 18") with your stock engine, they sure look good, but your fuel consumption might suffer.

Just sharing my thoughts...

hi there

hey thanks all for the infor...btu in the future i plan to mod my engine to 4G93T so i would like to change it not for the looks using my stock 4G15 engines.......i know it will drop performance and consume a lilbit fuel...but i jz wanna get the suspension and rims thing done b4 i go for the big thing ..thats the engine!.....so wat do u think if i put in

17" rims

18" rims
-shud i cut & knock some fenders on my car?
-is this rim will knock or tear of my fenders if fitted ?
-was it too big for the car?
-was really 18" rim will fit into wira with original uncut absorber
and untouch fenders!?

brother ... if i would to suggest ... i will ask you to go for the 45 series tyre and make it 215 if possible ...if you are going for the 40 series tebal ... you will loose all comfortable ....try to think it twice ... the length of the Rim make it a 7J will do ... then you dont need to knowck your mudguard and just fit it nicely ... you clicked on the thumbnail that i attached?? that was my previous car with 17inch rims ... but i didnt Lowered for a more comfortable purpose ... =) some more for my bodykit ... it doesnt look nice for that low down thingy ... if you were to use a 18inch rim ... i can say even it is a GSR ... you will somehow feel unsatisfy about the output of your engine as it is really too big for your car ... though 18inch for a 200ps car is still not consider under power ... just that you will feel not that satisfy ... some more the suitable size for the 18inch rim in a Wira is 215/35/18 ...i got a friends satria is using a 18inch rim as well ... he is using 215/40/18 if not mistaken ... trust me it will cause you trouble and suffer ... no pleasure at all ... i have to inform you that you must always prepare another amount of money to buy 2 more same size spare tyre for your ride ... it is easily tear and it is not practical ... try not to low your car too low and make it maybe 2 finger gab will do ... =)

Hello there..Im a newbie..so i rilly2 need help here..ive got an 2004 Iswara..im planning to change the tires..as it goin to wear off very soon..and i plan to change a new set of wheels to..i need help as i do not know anything about changing them..any body can gimme a hand on this matter..such as what type of rims most suitable,size(heard 15" the best) all other stuff olso..what is pcd??n other stuff related

 

[rollakid]

iswara should be pcd114.3 4 hole right? my idea of the best rim is to get the smallest one that can fit your brakes. not really into big rims.. just my opinion.

 

[yinho]

elo newbie, there is a lot a lot of topic posted before. do a search and read those thread.

 

[CraZieThug5057]

[rollakid]

rolla kid wat model iswara ru using?......

i don't really know anything about iswara, its not mine, its my dad's. he bought it early last year, dunno which year's model, but seem like those clear stock sale.

i know its pcd114.3 cuz the rim can be exchanged with mine, direct fit in. and previously there are forumers who say its 114.3 too.

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

yah.... iswara PCD is 114.3.... unless u change the PCD oledi lar....
same for all saga iswara model because all of them share the same chassis design...
