Twincarb Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi all,It's a totally off topic from triumphs but...I have got winter tyres for my other car which are 205/55 R16 's last year I swapped the tyres with the ones on the car's alloys this year i want to get them put onto Steel rims so I can get the Alloys refinished. However I have no idea what I am looking for when I buy steel tyres can anyone help with advice on the size I want/need! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 You need to know the "parameters" for the suitable rims for both the car and the tyres - obviously stud PCD will relate to the car, as will offset.Diameter and width - a combination of the car requirements and the tyre requirements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Man Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Does your spare wheel use the same size tyre (if you have a spare?) as they are usually a steel rim, then purchase 3 or 4 more spare wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 What car?Have a look on fleabay, and search for the car make and 16" wheels. Hopefully something will turn up. Other models (eg base) often have steel rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
