15 " wheels you need 195-45-R15, you have other tires, but i don't know the measures.
14" you can take 175-55-R14 or 185-55-R14 or things like that, with 14" you got more choice in tires.
but with 15" wheels you have more problems that the wheels can bump into your 'wheelhouse' (did i typ that right?) and that can damage your tires.
but first, i think you need to search for an Ax, and then look for the wheels

Anyway he ment the casing around the wheel to protect ur car from water etc. Maybe that way its more clear;)
haha
no i mean that when you drive over a bump, your wheel will bounce inside the wheelhouse, but when the wheels are too big, it will contact with the wheelhouse, and that will be the begin of damaged tires.DLS wrote:I think its clear with that WheelhouseDuFF wrote:15 " wheels you need 195-45-R15, you have other tires, but i don't know the measures.

Lol that is what i ment to.. that the tires will / can damage because they hit the protection of the car above the wheels:PDuFF wrote:no i mean that when you drive over a bump, your wheel will bounce inside the wheelhouse, but when the wheels are too big, it will contact with the wheelhouse, and that will be the begin of damaged tires.DLS wrote:I think its clear with that WheelhouseDuFF wrote:15 " wheels you need 195-45-R15, you have other tires, but i don't know the measures.

You are richt. standard is 165/65-14. Almost the same hight and often used are:
175/60-14
185/55-14
195/45-15
For as far i know the ax GT chic is nog formally rated over 190 km/h so a "T" tire would do fine at the DIV. Since the tires rated H, V , W are rated for higher top speeds you are always allowed to use them instead of a "T" tire. In generally a higher speed rating makes the tire more expensive and in a lot of cases you get less mileage from a high speed version.
When looking for bigger wheels in 3 bolt version you got little choice, that is why quite a lot of people convert the cars to 4 bolt versions.
