Posted: Mon Oct 23, 2006 23:15 Post subject: Wheel choices available for Delis, with pictures |
|
|
As the question of what wheels/tyres will fit a Deli keeps cropping up I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread to create a sort of pictoral reference of the various types of wheels available.
I'll start the ball rolling with a couple of piccies, feel free to add yours with any other information such as Rim width, what tyre size you have fitted and any clearance problems in fitting to a Deli, but just photo's of wheels and tyres only. Hopefully we'll build up a good photo / info selection for easy reference. :D
Pajero MK1 15 x6j wheel with 215/80/15 tyre fitted, no clearance problems
Pajero MK1 15 x7j 215/80/15 tyre fitted, no clearance problems, 235/75/15 tyre fitted very slight rubbing on front tyres just off full lock,
(Please just use this thread to post photo's of your wheel & tyre combinations here, not questions about tyres or comments, as they will be deleted. If you have questions please post them as a separate thread, or PM the user for info, so you get answers specific to your query only! None wheel / tyre picture posts will be removed to keep the thread tidy and on Topic.(Moderator)

Thought this rim guide (For a standard wheel, well at least the standard wheels that were originally fitted to my Deli that is...) I made might be of use to someone...

FX Canyon 15x7 with -13 offset. the tyres are 31x10.50 Cooper Discoverer ATR.
Even though i had previously modded my wheelarches to accept 31" tyres i had to make more space for these probably due to the offset widening the arc the tyre travels within the wheelarch, I deliberately ordered this offset because i like the wide look
Extension to the arches are also required because they stick out a bit 8) (covered in this post http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14785&highlight=)
I took a picture when the sun was not so bright so as to show the design of the wheels better

My New Wheels....
These are L200 16inch wheels, with kingpin 265/75 R16. Front needed the usual mods on the front, and possibly wheel arches as they stick out 1.5 inches
Have to admit not sure about the tyres they are very good on the mud, (80/20% mud tyres) but they are very noisy... the good thing is my Speedo is now accurate |

Clean the rims off and polish up with a fine buffer, then apply cling film over the rubber and taped down, as close in to the rim as possible.
Select your preferred colour and do it in light single coats, allowing plenty of drying time, as per the suppliers instructions given on the can, between coats.
Alternatively give them to a pro to do them, whilst you cry in your bank managers lap!
These were done, without painting; though I redid them a few years later, using the same type of flapwheels and polishing buffer
