will these fit?

[stokie1985]

Hi guys / gals. I'm thinking of buying these but am unsure if they would fit my micra. I have a 1995 1.3lx 3 door. Please can you have a look at the add and let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

They'll fit but I'd get some 195/45r15s on them, the current tyres will knock your ratios out.

Depends on weather you wont to go for looks or you wont it to drive well??

Even if you put 195/45/15's on they will still raise your gearing and slow the car down alot.
I lasted a week with bigger wheels on mine. But sold them on because it just drove so bad!

You can get 155/45/15 tyres that will put your ratios some where near. But they will cost three or four times the amount of the wheels..

i say go with it. i've been running 195/55/15 for ages and its great!

of course it's a little slower, but its not actually that bad.
if you've not got power steering, you're gonna feel the width of the tyres(i'm well hench now though!)

you recon if your in each gear longer it slows you down ?

From my experience 5th seemed to have no power with bigger wheels, dropping it into forth will obviously solve the power issue but then the issue will become fuel economy.

youve got to accept that a 1.0L is always gonna be slow, 13s or 15s... i find the 15s give the car a great ride quality and increased stability. for the extra (up to) 10mph corner speed, i'm prepared to sacrifice a little straight line speed...
