Hey all, what nuts do you need to use with these wheels? I have my eye on a set for next summer. :sunglasses:
20" gloss black, staggered fitment. 265/35/20 front and 305/30/20 rear.
I currently use the Gorilla 61148BCX on my OEM wheels.
Thanks.
Should I do this if I replaced my battey about 16 months ago? Popped in Varta Silver Dynamic. 61ah with 600cca. Or just leave it until it needs doing next time?
Oh I see - you actually have those wheels. My bad mate. Just seen some more pics here - https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/need-help-choosing-tires.183386/post-3692653
Amazing! :sunglasses:
Thanks that's great to hear. :like: And I'm assuming the offset etc on the wheels in the kit from LMR.com in this example, are all suitable for the car. I can always ask them but I'm sure it will be fine.
I'm back! 😂
Could I ask please, would fitting this alloy wheel kit from LMR.com - will it be straight forward (as in the wheels are designed for the Mustang)? They are not going to poke out or foul the suspension, or anything like that? Would be a straight swap around no issues?
I think that...
I'd love to pay that here. :)
Rough calcs which I know aren't amazing but..
1 US Gallon = 3.78 US litres = $3.74
=> 1 US Litre = $3.74 / 3.78 = 0.99c
=> 16 US Gallon (60 Litre) tank = 60 x 0.99c = $59 (or just $3.74 x 16)
I think that's correct - ignoring the difference between US / UK...
So glad I picked this up from Costco. First time I've used it and it's brilliant. It was a tad cold last night. 😁 Was still reading -5ºC (23F) at 10AM.
@luca1290 I'd personally just stick in Shell Helix Ultra Professional AF 5w-30 Fully Synthetic.
As @Skye says, the difference between 0w and 5w is minimal for flow and thickening when cold. I think 5w is like -25ºC and 0w is -30ºC. I think ACEA C2 also meets A5/B5 specification. I believe...
Thanks again everyone - yeah I was just curious about the 295 size. Happy to stick with what we worked out earlier on. Been very useful reading all the input. :like: I'm sure I'll be back in a few weeks after forgetting everything. 🤔😂
Can you also go 295/35/19 on a 19x10 wheel? (Instead of 285/35/19) 😁
Also, is this how you all work out the difference? Example below is a 9.5J to 10J swap.
9.5 inches = 241mm (center 120.5mm)
52.5mm offset
10 inches = 254mm (center 127mm)
35mm offset
=> 127 - 120.5 = wheel is 6.5mm wider...
Thanks - oh yeah it'll mostly be cold, damp, freezing weather. We rarely get proper snow here and if we did it would be a dusting. That's all we need to grind the UK to a halt. 🤭 So it's more temperature and safety as the current tyres don't handle well under around 9ºC or lower. Today was...
And so 285/35/19 front and rear will not upset the speedo or tolerances moving from a 255/40 and 275/40?
But I agree yes, I would use the stock for the winter tyres and the new wheels for the summer. Totally agree with that approach.
Thanks that is so weird as I was just about to post this:
"Quick example. These wheels look lovely, but are 19x10 front and rear and it looks like they, if you want, come with 285/35/19 tyres. Is that OK to fit front and rear? The vehicle info says it will fit and will clear the 6 pots."...
Hey
I'm sorry for being so dumb and asking this but I'm still on the hunt from some different 19" wheels for my car. My plan - I want to fit winter tyres to the current stock wheels. I then would like a new set of alloy wheels that would take a wider tyre up front and rear (not by much but...
Lol I feel your pain. I had those wheels on my 16 plate and keeping them clean was hard work. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the pads too. I tell you what though, I've never seen pads as dusty as those on my dad's Audi Q3. His wheels are silver and turn jet black after just a few...
