WHEELS AG Forged R18 — Toyota Avensis, 1.8 liter, 2009
The discs were made to order at AG Forged engineering at the production facilities of the Stupino Metallurgical Plant (SMK), the weight of one disc is 7600 gr. I had to wait about 3 months, although the site promises that the entire manufacturing cycle, from forging a blank to painting, will last 45 days.
With rubber, too, it was difficult, but simpler than with discs.
At first I could not decide on the size, but when I decided, I decided I would take the Yokohama Advan Sport V103. Then began the search and study of the market. As it turned out later, the prices for rubber in Ufa are simply HORSE. In our city, I found this rubber in only one store and it cost 12,500 rubles there. I started to scour the net and came across a Tire Express store whose network is located in Yekaterinburg and Chelyabinsk and cities adjacent to them. In this store, one tire cost 8600 rubles. Significant difference agree. I was very pleased that this trading network has delivery to the nearest regions, including Ufa. I ordered, paid the bill through the bank and a week later they sent me tires by the transport company. By the way, delivery from Yekat to Ufa (550 km) cost 470 rubles - just a freebie.
Perhaps if you lived with us, you would understand why, the roads are such a horror, a people's car is a car with a clearance of at least 17 cm and wheels 235/65, and even those are killed during the season.
I'm sorry, but I have a question. What does it mean to cringe in winter? Does a car fly through the air in summer? I suppose I don’t understand at all people who take a larger diameter disk for the summer than for the summer? I really don't understand.
Discs Sechr Gut! All sorts of respect, in the winter it’s not a pity to care for such nonsense ?!
If it's about what I have, then these are regular bumpers. If the question is which one I want. I will say this, while there is nothing to choose from, there are no body kits for my car at all, except for bumper pads and sills. In our city they mold a rosary hanging around, but it's expensive. Let's see if something comes up.
Everyone says that the wheels for the summer are X (X) in size, and for the winter they take X minus 1-2 inches ...
Why?
And I would rather take 16-17 "for the winter and 15-16" for the summer ... since the roads are smoother in winter and all the pits and potholes are covered with snow and ice ... But since I ride an all-weather season in winter and summer, I decided to take an average in summer 16" and drive it in winter and summer
My personal opinion, because the larger the radius, the more expensive. And for me it was cheaper to buy winter tires for 16 than for 18 and also low-profile besides.
Disks hot! I understand that they are Stupino? What is the weight of the disc and, if not a secret, the price of the issue per piece.
The discs are made to order at the facilities of the Stupino Metallurgical Plant. I can’t say exactly how much they weigh, but they are not heavy, I think 8.5-9 kilograms each. The issue price is 9500 rubles per disc!
the wheels are excellent, I also want to myself, I choose from slick l 193 and these SMKasheks, only how much will they cost for 16? or site where ordered?! PZhL!
No offense! I think you didn't feel the difference just because of the weight of these discs! I have a casting and after installing the 18th I had to change the brakes. the changes were very noticeable. :)
Dear physics teacher, speaking about the fact that it doesn’t affect anything, I was talking about my feelings when driving this car and with these wheels, and not about elementary physics. It’s a no brainer that if you put too big wheels, you will accelerate for a long time and stop for a long time.
