Technical 195/50/15 tyres........do they fit?

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

or will they rub?

basicly, i really want to try a set of Yoko Parada 2's, but they don't do them in a 45 profile!

so, will 50s fit? or will i have to mod the arches?!?!

Dunc

 

[danb998]

they don't fit properly on my uno i would hav to mod the arch's with a 35mm drop

but the turbos r different iv heard

the 50 profiles will nock ur speedo out slightly cos the outer circumfrence of the wheel would b bigger

 

[Hellcat]

Tipo size wheels then? Jai had a set on his UT. Could depend on offset.

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

the wheels i've got are proper fiat uno offset and PCD as they were bought for an uno new.

the Yoko Paradas are very rounded on the edges too, unlike the Toyo T1-R's i have on my green UT, so i thought this might help.

i'm happy for them to catch a little on big bumps, but i don't wanna mod my arches really and i want ot be able to take a couple of people in the back!

[Jai]

yes they fit, run closer to the arch, and they will rub earlier on the gearbox casing than 45s will.

problem i have though is the damper/spring on the nearside appeares to be shagged, and on right turns body is leaning down on to the shulder of the tyre.

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

ahh right, cheers jai

thanks mate

keep getting different views. some people telling me they'll catch like a mofo! but uve re assured me! and if uve done a trackday on the 195/50/15s then thats pushing them to their limmits so daily driving and a bit of enthusiastic driving should be ok yeah?

my UT was dropped 40 and had 195/50/15s
rubbed a little bit on full lock, i think it was on the gearbox, and because the wheels have the wrong spacing. so i think you should be ok
