geordiesaid Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hi All, hope you all have a great year , what rim sizes are best for track days / hill climbing and 1/4 mile on a Glanza that can also be used for normal roads? Currently my V is with 17 inch wheels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ROTABOOST Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 17 is too big......15's all day long Quote Link to post Share on other sites
geordiesaid Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 hi ROTABOOST, thanks for your reply , will try my best to have my hands on some 15s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MitchD Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 15 x 7 for me ! et 35 ish? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 The PERFECT wheel size for a Glanza/GT is considered to be 15x6.5J ET37. However, wider wheels or offset can be bigger these days with wider front wings. etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Big fat tyres are better for the 1/4. I fitted low profiles and had hardly any traction at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
geordiesaid Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Thanks all for the replies , 15s are the rims to consider instead of the big 17s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 If you want to do drag racing I would be getting the smallest wheel on I could like a 13 or 14 inch banded steely with the biggest slick I could fit width and profile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
geordiesaid Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 True, for drag racing 13's and 14's are the best. for both track and drag racing (not events) 15's should be ok I believe. correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I think 15s are the best arounder, fit decent sized brakes and good on track Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletezy Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 14-15 MAX on a track 14s would work better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 For track/drag the best size would be 14" with a chunkyish tyre. Looks wise 16s fill the arch perfectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Gordr doing his hill sprints ran 16's up front to 15's on the rear seen the same on tracks unsure of what tyre sizes. 15x7 30's is what's getting good times on the track in Troys ep82 in Japan but he was running 14's with good times on track to. I'd go 15's track 14's drag if I was you I ran 14's acceleration was great! Edited March 24, 2016 by Gainzy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
