MOMO / OZ Rim

[Turbobrick]

What tire budget U have?

[Mondeo]

16" rim use tyre size of 195/45R16, 205/45R16, 215/40R16 (either one), but did they tell U it's superleggra 16"! I can't search OZ got make the 16" superleggra for Civic, OZ got only 15" or 17". U better check clearly when the day U go there to buy.

When changing rims and tyres - there's an important thing to remember. The new set of rims plus tyres should have the same/ as close as possible diameter/circumference as your stock tyres, as mentioned in your manual. That's because your car's setup to run at that certain tyre circumference. The plus 1 rule, I found, is a rough guide and not really accurate.

 

Here's a tire calculator courtesy of Mondeo which I found most useful.

 

Please read http://www.fernblatt.com/longhurst/tyre_bible.html for a better understanding on the tyre and wheel issue.

And better re-programme the speedmeter after installed the wheels.

Yah man... if not.. it's either u find that your car got exceptionally good mileage of exceptionally bad.....

[Madarmour]

Don't think reprogramming the speedo helps. You need to recalibrate that thing.

do know leh , the guy say have one !!!!!

 

but never mind, wait till I see the rim then say

 

In other forum ,

 

someone tell me this:

 

Don't get the Superleggera. If you check properly. you'll notice that 2 of the holes are PCD100 and the other 2 are PCD98, which would cause instability at high speeds as the wheel nuts will not be sitting properly.

 

 

can anybody tell me this is truth or not!!!!!!!

Cool and Mike has Superlegs, perhaps they can confirm for U

[Mondeo]

Normally PCD 98 can't be fixed at PCD 100, unless use the adapter, if ctr borg is correct then try to fix it, no harm, or look for whole set correct one loh.

[Madarmour]

Mine's PCD 100 x 5. I think it doesn't make sense to make 2 holes with PCD 100 and 2 holes PCD 98. I don't think OZ will tarnish their image that way. And if it's true, all rims by OZ would be made that way too, not just the Superleggs.

 

One way to find out is to check whether 2 adapter bolts/nuts are needed. We know there's no way you can fix in a PCD100 rim to a PCD98 (and vise versa) without using adapters.

Just asking only lar ....

 

See the rim then say lar ....sign

[Huggable]

I'm using Superleggra, PCD 100. Fits perfectly on my car, so the PCD has to be the same for all 4 holes.

[Spaceman]

if i remembered correctly, the superlegs that i'd saw came with only 4holes, but then again, OZ can also produc them with 8holes (to fit 100 and 113) and btw, quite a few of the rims in the OZ rims lineup comes in either 8 or 10 holes to suit different car make...

[Turbobrick]

Oh, U got Superlegs for your car? Cool

Spring + Damper = SACHS Sporting kit (comes with Eibach springs actually )

 

Eibach's parent company is SACHS

 

 

 

 

turbobrick,

 

is the above true? that Eibach 's parent company is sachs. I only know there's a few subsidary under ZF sachs group, always thought the relationship of Eibach and Sachs is partner, because Eibach uses Sachs OEM dampers in it's Eibach prosystem kit.

OZ Superleggera III

[Turbobrick]

JK, U could be right. It may just be a partnership rather than Sachs owning all.
