Hi All,

I have a MY96 wagon

15" 5 spoke alloys as standard..

i have a few questions

1) what if any? other rims will fit ie v/haul 5 stud ??

2) whats the biggest ruber can fit, or can i drop my profile a bit

3) can i fit bigger rims, if so how big?

4) saw a t plate scooby saloon today only had 195 50 15,s on it??

why do i have 205 50 15?? can i go that route??

Hi there.
You can certainly fit 205-50-16s on the car, as I have them on mine. No probs at all. Don't know if you can go bigger than 16 though?

Talking

Dan,
I think he gets the message!!
You can go as far as 19" wheels as Dan has shown but generally most stick to 17s with 215/40 17 tyres.

Unfortunatly the are no other manufacturers fitting compatable wheels, but there is quite a range of aftermarket wheels available in the Scooby fitment
