1- Mounting wider tyres while retaining the original wheels.
\n2- Upgrading to larger wheels and installing wider wheels.<\/p>\n
There are both advantages as well as disadvantages of tyre upsizing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tyre Upsize Advantages May Include Like:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\u25cf Cosmetic upliftment of a vehicle.
\n\u25cf Personalization of a vehicle giving an oomph factor.
\n\u25cf Offering greater grip on the road which helps in maintaining greater control, safe braking.
\n\u25cf Wider tyres offer better cornering even when the vehicle is moving at high speed.
\n\u25cf It enhances the\u00a0overall performance of a car by remarkably improving the balance, stability and traction thereby making the drive safe and secured.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While Tyre Upsize \u00a0Disadvantages Include:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\u25cf Tyre upsizing will make you spend extra shells on the type of tyre to be used.
\n\u25cf Although wider tyres enable\u00a0good grip but they also reduce paddle acceleration due to the weight imposed by the tyres.
\n\u25cf Wider tyres require extra effort to manoeuvre the steering by the driver. This could turn into a disaster, especially in slow moving traffic.
\n\u25cf Wider tyres can also result in bumpy and uncomfortable drive.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With the tyre size calculator<\/strong>, one can choose best-suited size tyres for his vehicle. There are basically two ways to calculate upsizing:<\/p>\n1- Retaining Original Wheels\/Alloys:<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn this, no modification will be done to car\u2019s metal portion but the tyre will be changed as per the required fitment and possibility.<\/p>\n
To ensure safe tyre upsizing, you must keep in mind that the overall diameter (OD) of new tyres is between the permissible tolerance<\/strong> i.e. only up to 3% of the OD of stock tyre.<\/p>\nE.g. suppose if the OD of the stock tyre is 24.47 inches, then the OD of the new tyre cannot be more than 25.20 inches i.e. stock tyre OD 24.47 inches + maximum 3% increase in OD of the new upsized tyre.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Know how to achieve the permissible tolerance –<\/strong><\/h2>\nTyre Width:<\/strong><\/h3>\nAssume the original size of the tyre is 185\/65 R15 with an OD of 24.47 inches.<\/p>\n
Here, the width of the stock tyre (company equipped tyre) is 185mm.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s now add 20mm to the width of your stock tyre for safe upsizing.<\/p>\n
Now, the width of your new tire is 205mm.<\/p>\n
