General quick please, offset of 750s wheels and

[dave]

just checking my tyres for long juorney tomorrow and noticed all my side walls are perished bad,
will it pull 14" punto mk2 wheels? other wise i have to take all the wheels off my 4x4

 

[panda-sport]

what size tyres are on the 14's ?

 

[Sprox]

offset of panda wheels is 98x4

A 750 with chunky 4x4 tyres?
Wicked Brother!:devil:

offset of panda wheels is 98x4

Thats the stud pattern, not the offset. Nearly all fiats are 4x98 but have different offsets ranging between 36 (cinq and sei) and 45 (uno). not sure where the panda stands there tho, sorry.

165/70/14 offset is et35

 

[FuzzyPanda]

Offset should be ok but you are highly like to get rubbing with that diameter and tyre profile combination.

 

[gaz.d]

needed longer bolts to fit 13" speedline to my panda, offset was 29.5

does that help?

 

[dave]

the diameter dont seem much bigger than the 4x4s 155/70/13 side by side

nope all the wheels are steel

tyre bible says there a 123.78mm differnce in circumfrance or 7.2%

speedo says 70mph, you doing 75mph

 

[FuzzyPanda]

Is the car a 4x4 or 2WD Panda?

but its never gone faster than 60 mph

its the 750 2wd the 4x4 is off the road

 

[FuzzyPanda]

Compare the 14s with the 13s on the 750 and the difference will probably be more pronounced. The 4x4 has raised suspension and thus can cope with higher profiles.

 

[panda-sport]

Thats because the 4x4 has larger diameter tyres than 4x2.

750 tyre profile approx 111mm
4x4 tyre profile approx 119mm
punto tyre profile approx 115mm plus 12mm for the rim - total 127 (before wear)

I would give it a try ( speedo will read slow)

 

[FuzzyPanda]

Sounds like someone needs MEGA EXPERT WHEEL SWAPPERS:

 

[dave]

eating me tea now, will try the punto ones after, unless amyone reckons it wont pull the bigger size?

 

[Alan.D]

The car will pull with them on not sure if they will rub though?

 

[FuzzyPanda]

I reckon under the higher regions of spring compression there'll be a bit of rubbing, but that is purely a guess.

 

[dave]

they on went for a quick spin they seemed ok no passengers though, will have passenger tomorrow.
got another problem the bottom bar of rear seat seems to have got shorter some how it keeps falling out of its holder.
and sides of front bumper came out again on test run
