Will 18/7.5 rims fit my '98 GT Primera 5dr without any messing about. I wanted 17" Kosei Seneka Roms but cant get them
here in the UK anymore :mad:
but I can get 18's:p but if they do fit what will the ride/drive be like ? I've got H&R springs on the car
Anyone out there with 18" on a p11 ?

You will have to roll if you get 18x7.5...to wide
If you can, go for 215/45/18x7 with a 42mm off set...you will be better off with that size.
I have these on mine and have no problem at all apart from the really big "dips" in the road that you hit quite hard.

I fixed this problem by rolling just the lip in a little bit at the very top and had no trouble

Thankyou, thats good news
I assume it was only the rear arches that you had to roll &
no problem with front clearances ?
Do you find the car tramlines ? & did you have to alter the tracking ?

Forgot to ask, if I go for 45's instead of 35's does this
effect the speedo ?

G20.net has a section about tire sizes, and the amount of speedo error with different sizes.... I just hope the 5-doors are pretty similar...I imagine they are.

I don't know about the european model P11 but my P11 is rolling on 18x7.5 with 225/40ZR18 tires offset +43...perfect fit...
