efp0wa Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Hey all, I've got some old rims that I want to put on the Laurel. At the moment the laurel has 185/60/14s. The old wheels that I have are 15s with 195/50/15s, two of the wheels have brand new tyres (used for a few hundred kms) and the other two are bald. So i want to put the legit ones on the Laurel. So the question i have is, should i put the larger wheels&tyres on the front of the rear of the vehicle? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock-Lee Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 big ones on the rear so you use less gas at 100k. also gives you mad rake yo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efp0wa Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thanks Brock-Lee. Anyone else got any light to shed onto this topic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insani-T Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Not much else to say, If you want, stick them on the front but you will see that looks gay and will quickly change them to the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efp0wa Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 So your saying stick them on the front, but brock-lee is saying to stick them on the rear. EDIT: Sorry didnt read your post correctly at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 With a 185/60/14 beside a 195/50/15, I wouldnt think there would be much different in size at all. The 50 profile would accommadate for the bigger rim. Have you put them side by side? Id stick the 15" wheels on the front and the 14"s on the back so it looks like you got burnout bickies on. Not to popular with the cops tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Put bigger ones on the right hand side, and tell people it's a nascar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drftnmaz Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 the 185's are 1.2mm bigger, if it was me i'd be looking at the offset to decide which ones go on front or back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
