I can't see a wheel like that being available in a PCD of 4 x 140mm.

Not a lot of hub in the wheel to allow that PCD.

Nice rims - but whystop at 17 - I've got a set of 18's for my Brumby

haha i dunno i think 18s would be a bit far if there fitted send us some photos

Id stick with the 15's, which would give you a tyre of around 195/50r15 which is about as low profile as you would want to go. Thats if you are likely to get them in 4x140.

yer i still want something thats got a bit of rubber on them

I agree with Gannon

brockharro · Post by **brockharro** » Wed Feb 01, 2012 10:58 pm

so 195/60r15 would be the go

Not fitted yet - and I have full WRX suspension so 5x100 hubs and an extra 40mm on the track width - will be running flares or widened guards to make them fit - see my signature pic below

i was thinking about getting those for my vortex, i sent them like 3 emails over 2 months and never got a responce, if you can find out if they fit for your brumby that would be awesome.
Also does the brumby stud pattern the same as the vortex?

brockharro · Post by **brockharro** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 8:58 am

is the vortex 4x140 pattern if do they are the same

195 50 15's are actually smaller than 175 70 13's from memory in the rego circumference measures 195 55 15 seem to work spot on for MY and L speedo

brockharro · Post by **brockharro** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 9:58 am

so if i go 195/60r15 its gunna nearly be the same as whats ready on there just more rim

Johnny T · Post by **Johnny T** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 9:59 am

I sent ozzy-tyres another email, hopefully they respond this time and asked them if they come in 4x140. If i get a response i'll let you guys know

Hopefully they can fit because they would look so nice on the 4 stud subaru's

Not true !!

195/50/15 are bigger than 175/70/13 but only by 0.8mm - so effectively the same size.

195/55/15 are 20mm bigger - speedo will be out by 3.5%
