The production of the domestic car Lada Priora was carried out from 2008 to 2022 inclusive. Over such a long time, the owners have redesigned some components of the car, the main ones of which are the wheels. At the moment, replacing discs is a common issue for most Lada Priora owners.
ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"
This may be due not only to the visual component, but also to the technical one, since factory wheels on old Prioras tend to become outdated. This article will discuss the problem of replacing disks with both standard ones, which are installed by the manufacturer, and non-original ones, purchased for the purpose of tuning a car.
What is a bolt pattern?
4 bolt holes are 4
- The first number “4”
indicated in the parameters indicates the number of holes located on the hub, intended for screwing wheel bolts into them. - The second number “98”
indicates the diameter in millimeters of the circle in which those same mounting bolts are located.

Based on safety requirements, wheels with such a bolt pattern cannot be installed on a VAZ-2112. But, some drivers use spacers or eccentric bolts
install such disks.
The bolt pattern of Lada Priora wheels is a rather important parameter when installing a new set of rims. In this case, every car owner needs to know it during selection. This parameter name is the most common, but sometimes you can also find another name such as drilling. Despite the differences in name, the meaning remains the same. It is necessary to know it in order to understand how the wheel is attached to the suspension elements.
The bolt pattern of the VAZ Priora corresponds to such brand models as Kalina, Granta and all classic models. This is done to avoid unnecessary confusion among car owners, as well as to reduce the cost of the production process.
What is the wheel bolt pattern on the Priora?
Lada Priora is deservedly one of the most popular and widespread sedans of the AvtoVAZ concern. This is due to the low cost of the model and high driving performance, which is an order of magnitude higher than that of classic models. In addition, there are no problems finding spare parts and components to improve the car, and you can service it yourself in the garage.
The installed rims have a very big influence on the behavior of any car on the road, its stability, steering and other characteristics. Their size and characteristics will determine the safety, dynamic qualities, and appearance of the car.
To select, purchase and install products on a car, you need to have information about their bolt pattern parameters. Knowing them, you can confidently buy and install a set of new disks.
At the moment, for the entire model range you can buy both original factory wheels and those produced by various other companies: both domestic and foreign. For example, the famous Russian brand “K&K” has an agreement with the manufacturer and produces a special line for Lada models.
New products created in an individual design will help perfectly decorate the appearance of the vehicle. However, the most common reason for replacement is still wear and tear or change of season. Car tuning is also very popular. It is carried out to make it more sporty and attractive. One of the main components to replace during tuning is the wheel rim.
You can find out what kind of bolt pattern is on the Priora from the technical documentation or from special tables presented on the Internet.
Priora is available in sedan, hatchback and station wagon body styles. The parameters and characteristics of the discs do not depend on the car's design.
During the operation of the vehicle, car owners get bored with the standard appearance and want to change something. In this case, tuning comes to the rescue, allowing for visual and technical improvements. It is possible to replace some car components with improved, sportier and more attractive ones.
The main part on which the appearance depends is the rims. In this regard, car enthusiasts try to replace them first. For any vehicle, wheels are not only part of the appearance, but also a very important design element, the size, production method and weight of which determine the vehicle’s stable behavior on the road surface, handling and dynamic qualities.

A new set of products must comply with all parameters declared by the manufacturer. This applies to both correct drilling and the required dimensions in terms of width, size and reach. It is also necessary to select high-quality tires for the season, since inaccurate sizes will negatively affect operation.
The drilling parameter determines whether the selected rim can be installed on the car. If the parameter does not match, then it is necessary to use adapter rings, which entails undesirable interference in the factory design.
Note!
Tires are installed regardless of the wheel bolt pattern on the Priora.
Priora wheel size
The legendary model of the domestic concern "AvtoVAZ" is deservedly considered one of the most popular and widespread models presented on the Russian market. This is due to the relatively low cost of the car, its high driving characteristics, which far exceed the older classic cars of the concern. An important feature is the absence of problems in finding spare parts and parts to improve the car, and you can service it yourself in the garage. Lada Priora is produced in body types such as sedan, hatchback and station wagon. This allows buyers to choose the most convenient body type to perform various tasks.
The need to replace wheels and tires happens to every car owner. This also applies to Priora fans. Any tires and wheels wear out as a result of use and require either repair or replacement. The tires on a Priora usually last for several seasons, after which they need to be replaced. Regardless of the diameter and other dimensions of tires, wear occurs gradually.

Any product installed on a vehicle requires proper and careful operation. As for tires, the most common mistake of all drivers is the incorrect selection of products according to seasonality. You can often see a car driving in winter on summer tires, or vice versa. It is important to remember that this is very unsafe. In addition, using, for example, winter tires in summer greatly increases their wear. Since this type of rubber is simply not intended for use in such temperature conditions.
In auto stores you can find offers for the sale of tires in all possible designs with a large number of different characteristics that will suit even the most demanding car enthusiasts.
In addition, installed tires and wheels have a maximum impact on the following properties of the vehicle:
- Increasing or decreasing the level of wear of parts and suspension units, depending on the quality of the product.
- Machine controllability in any conditions.
- Dynamic qualities such as acceleration, maximum speed, braking distance.
- Fuel consumption.
- Other characteristics.
During the operation of a vehicle, it is necessary to pay maximum attention to the quality of the wheels used. In addition, it is necessary to constantly monitor their technical condition. At the first signs of wear, it is necessary to either replace the products or reduce the load on them. Installing the cheapest wheels with low performance is unacceptable. Such tires usually last no more than one season, wear out very quickly and behave unpredictably on the road surface.

Options
For the entire time when the Lada Priora car was produced, all the parameters and characteristics of the wheel rims remained unchanged. Drilling for disks, regardless of the method of their manufacture, size and design, is the same.
To guess with a new set of wheels, you need to know the following data:
- Rim diameter, the size of which is indicated in inches;
- Wheel rim width, also measured in inches;
- Reach, millimeter measurement system;
- The number of drilled holes for fastening with bolts is drilling;
- The hole for installing the hub, as well as its diameter. Denoted as DIA. The measurement system is also millimeter.
Important! If you know all the listed parameters, it is almost impossible to make a mistake when selecting disks.
Priora's bolt pattern:
- The number of mounting holes and the diameter of their location circle is 4*98;
- The diameter of the hub or central hole of the machine is 58.6 millimeters;
- Rim diameter - 14 inches;
- Rim offset - 37-35 millimeters;
- Recommended width is 5.5 or 6.0 inches;
Also, as an alternative, there are special tables for determining the drilling parameters of any Lada car. They provide all the information on the declared dimensions and parameters for cars of all models and modifications.
This table allows you to determine the sizes and parameters of wheels for the Lada Priora in various trim levels and versions.
Peculiarities
As a feature for the Priora bolt pattern, one can name a common value among the concern’s cars, which is 4x98. The size of the central hole is also fixed and equal to 58.6 millimeters.
Some car owners install unsuitable wheels where the parameters do not match the original ones. In this case, centering rings are used, with the help of which the diameter of the central hole is changed. In this way, ensure that the holes for fastening the disk with bolts match.
The bolt pattern parameters for the Lada Priora car are common among the concern’s models. In this regard, there are no problems with selecting a set of disks for the model.
Summer wheels on Priora
For the Lada Priora, the automaker recommends the speed index H (corresponds to a speed of 210 km/h). Speed index T is also allowed - 190 km/h. The recommended weight index is 82, which corresponds to a load of 475 kg per wheel.
We have compiled which wheels are best for the Priora in this table.

When choosing the maximum size of wheels and tires, remember that even a slight overinflation can create big problems when driving a car! Follow the recommendations for air pressure in the tires; the pressure on the front and rear axles should be 0.2 (2.0) MPa (bar).
What non-standard sizes can be supplied?
Installation of disks of other sizes is allowed. It is important to note that before use, you should ensure that there are no compatibility issues. Using wheels of non-standard sizes can cause the following problems:
- breakage of the plastic fender liner;
- damage to mudguards;
- premature wear of the chassis.
Often an installed wheel of a larger diameter touches the inside of the fender liner. Which leads not only to damage to the plastic under the car arches. But also quick wear of the tread. It is advisable to avoid such situations.
A good solution is to “try on” a similar wheel before purchasing non-standard tires. It should not overlap the car body even in extreme steering positions. Otherwise, the installation must be abandoned.
In some cases, after modification, it is possible to install wheels with a diameter of 15 and even 16 inches. However, this can only be done after finalizing the design of the car. The wheel arches will need to be rolled in with a special roller - after which they can be used without any problems, there is a danger of damaging the body.
The car manufacturer suggests the possibility of using wheels of non-standard overall dimensions. It is allowed to install wheels with the following dimensions:
- 195/60 R14;
- 185/55 R15;
- 195/55 R15;
- 195/50 R16.
All tires with the diameters listed above can be mounted without any concerns. Load index – 86. Speed index – T. The use of 6.5J disks is mandatory. The diameter can be used 14, 15, 16. The bolt pattern on all the cars listed above is completely identical - 4x98.
Operational deficiencies
Like most domestic cars, Priora has a rather weak paint coating, as a result of which the body of used cars is covered with chips and scratches. However, the problem with the low quality of metal and the level of anti-corrosion treatment is much more acute. As a result, the car quickly begins to become covered with rust, showing hot spots in various places. The most susceptible to corrosion are wheel arches, doors, sills and hood.
Engine
Both gasoline engines have proven themselves well during operation and are unpretentious in maintenance. The biggest problems are caused by electronic sensors, which cannot serve as a standard for durability. Quite often the throttle valve and the gasket between the head and the cylinder block fail due to the low quality of gasoline. When it gets dirty, the car stalls and loses traction. During operation of the machine, it is necessary to pay sufficient attention to the operation of the cooling system. Quite quickly, especially in the summer, the thermostat can fail, which can lead to overheating of the engine with all the ensuing consequences. Car enthusiasts will not be pleased with the long service life of the ignition coil and fuel pump. The car has a timing belt drive and, according to the manufacturer, its service life is 200 thousand kilometers. However, do not forget that as a result of a broken belt, the valve bends and you have to do a major overhaul of the engine. Therefore, owners of LADA Priora 2008 recommend changing it along with the rollers and pump at least every 100 thousand km.
Transmission
Despite the fact that the car is equipped with no alternative to a manual transmission, this gearbox cannot serve as a standard of reliability. The main disadvantage is weak synchronizers, which, however, is typical for manual transmissions installed on all AvtoVAZ models. The main sign of their failure is a characteristic crunch, which is clearly audible when changing gears. Priora received enhanced clutch from, but the problem of the limited service life of the release bearing was never solved. The service life of the transmission can be extended by using high-quality oil and regularly changing the fluid in the box, which must be done at least once every 75 thousand kilometers.
Chassis and steering
Surely many car enthusiasts are familiar with the problems of domestic cars associated with the short service life of the suspension. However, LADA Priora in this component can compete on equal terms with most budget foreign cars presented on the secondary market. Stabilizer bushings fail most quickly. As a rule, this happens already at 10–20 thousand km. mileage Following them, the stabilizer struts will have to be changed. Steering tips and wheel bearings will last about 40 - 50 thousand km. Replacement of ball joints and support bearings will be required after a mileage of 60 - 70 thousand km. Shock absorbers, CV joints and silent blocks of front levers can last 100 - 120 thousand kilometers. The original brake pads may not survive the first 10 thousand km, so the driver will have to quickly replace them with better analogues.
Poor quality operation of the electric power steering can cause certain troubles. The main signals of such a malfunction are jerking and heaviness when turning the steering wheel. The problem can be resolved by cleaning the electrical wiring contacts of the unit.
Other faults
Both the quality of the materials used for interior decoration and the level of assembly itself deserve great criticism, as a result of which car enthusiasts will have to put up with numerous extraneous sounds throughout the entire period of operation. Moreover, every year there will be more and more of them. Additional installed sound insulation and pasting of elements with vibration-absorbing materials do not help get rid of them either. The driver will constantly have to deal with malfunctions of electrical equipment, which occur mainly due to oxidation of contacts.
What to replace with
If you're tired of your factory wheels, it's time to get something new. Lada Priora does not differ in design features, so the list will contain the most suitable products for updating the external style of the car.
Alloy wheels are affordable for many people, so it’s worth starting with them. Let's look at the companies and their main developments:
- Skad is one of the most popular manufacturers of alloy wheels. Among the many models, pay your attention to the following: R14 Uran-2, R15 Magnum, R14 Fortuna, R14 Callisto, R15 Alligator, R15 Sting. Among the options there are classics and several original wheels that will help update the style of the car. Almost all models are reliable and have good impact resistance.
- K&K - has more interesting models: R15 Torus, R15 Iguana, R15 Spark. High impact resistance and style - this is a brief description of products from K&K.
- Alcasta - R14, R15 M32, R14, R16 M29 - simple inexpensive options.
- If you want to install an R16, feel free to buy a Camrica, you won’t regret it.
While all of these models are recommended, you may want to choose something that suits your style better.
The ideal solution for many situations is to use 2 different sets of disks. For the Priora, the best choice for the summer is considered to be four stamped alloy wheels, and for winter it is worth choosing durable cast products. If you change them depending on the season, they will last much longer, so you won’t have to think about replacing them for a long time.

What to look for when choosing
Among the main types, 2 will be priority for most - cheap alloy wheels and stamped ones.
Each type of disc has a marking that can tell you more about the features of the models:
- The first thing that appears in the marking will be the number - this is a number that means the width of the disks in inches (for example, 5.5).
- Next comes the letter abbreviation for the modification of the rim edges - B, D, K, J or P. There are more complex options JK, PP.
Generation 1
Lada Priora is an updated version of the popular VAZ 2110 model, production of which ended in 2007. Over 1,000 changes were made to the design of the “tens,” beloved by many Russians. As a result, a new family of cars appeared, consisting of 3 representatives:
- "VAZ-2170" - a sedan, the production of which began in March 2007;
- “VAZ-2172” is a hatchback that appeared in February 2008;
- "VAZ-2171" is a station wagon, sales of which began in May 2009.
After the modernization of the VAZ-2110, a fundamentally new car appeared that retained the same features. In the first version of the Lada Priora, similarities with the “ten” were clearly visible, but the bow and stern of the car became different. The headlights have increased in size and the radiator grille has become larger. The taillights were also modified, but overall the changes in appearance could not be called global.
The basic equipment of Lada Priora has become noticeably richer. It offered electric front windows, central locking with remote control, athermal windows, an airbag, electric power steering, an electronic clock and an adjustable steering column.
The car was available in three trim levels: “Standard”, “Norma” and “Lux”. They differed exclusively in the level of equipment. The model was equipped with 2 types of gasoline units:
- 1.6-liter 8-valve VAZ-21116 engine (90 hp);
- 1.6-liter 16-valve VAZ-21126 engine (98 hp).
Generation 2
In 2013, Lada Priora was updated. You shouldn't look for dramatic changes in the model's appearance, but new touches and details have appeared here. After restyling, the model received headlights with daytime running lights, brake lights and taillights with LEDs. Instead of a rectangular shape, the radiator grille was made pentagonal with a honeycomb cladding structure. The rear bumper received an energy-absorbing insert and a new design. However, the dimensions of the model remained the same.
There were much more changes in the interior. Inside the restyled Lada Priora, new finishing materials and modified seats have appeared, and the architecture of the front panel has changed. A color display with touch control was installed at the top of the center console. The seat backs have increased by 40 mm, which has a positive effect on comfort. The interior of the updated Lada Priora has become quieter.
In addition to design changes, the technical part has also been improved. The model has an improved suspension and new steering with a lower gear ratio. The main difference was the advanced 1.6-liter unit with dynamic supercharging producing 106 hp. The previous power plants remained available. The configurations did not change either. Lada Priora was still offered in “Standard”, “Norma” and “Lux” versions with the following types of wheels and tires:
- 5.5J wheels on 14 ET37, tires – 175/65R14;
- 5.5J wheels on 14 ET37, tires – 185/65R14;
- 5.5J wheels on 14 ET37, tires – 185/60R14;
- 6J wheels on 14 ET35, tires – 195/60R14;
- 6.5J wheels on 15 ET35, tires – 185/55R15;
- 6.5J wheels on 15 ET35, tires – 195/55R15;
- 6.5J wheels on 16 ET35, tires – 195/50R16.
The model’s body was made of low-alloy steel and galvanized metal, which extended the warranty against corrosion to 6 years.
Disc bolt pattern and factory tire sizes on the VAZ-2112
On all models of the VAZ-2112 car from the factory, the bolt pattern had a size of 4x98
. And straight from the assembly line it was planned to install wheels with a 13th and 14th radius and tires measuring 175/70 R13
or
175/65 R14
.
Such “stamps” are suitable for VAZ-2112 (Kremenchug)
The following two tabs change content below.
All my life I have been surrounded by cars! First, in the village, already in the first grade, I was rushing around on a tractor through the fields, then there was JAVA, then a penny. Now I am a third-year student at the Polytechnic Faculty of Automotive Engineering. I work part-time as a car mechanic and help repair cars for all my friends.
What tire sizes does the manufacturer recommend to install?
The type of tire installed directly at the factory differed depending on the year of manufacture, vehicle modification, and body type. The load index also differed. Therefore, before you start replacing, you should carefully familiarize yourself with all the intricacies of choosing tires. Using rubber similar to the standard one allows you to avoid many difficulties.
One of the first modifications of Lada Priora was equipped with an 80 hp engine. An injection-type gasoline engine was installed. The standard tires are 185 mm wide. At the same time, the profile height is only 65 mm. The wheel diameter is 14 inches. Speed index - T. Wheels of this type were installed at the factory.
For cars with an 86 hp engine. The manufacturer practiced installing 3 different types of wheels:
- 175/65 mm;
- 185/60 mm;
- 185/65 mm.
Moreover, all modifications had wheels with a diameter of 14 inches. Cars with a power of 97 hp equipped with wheels 185 mm wide with a profile height of 65 mm. In recent years, before the production of this model was stopped, the most purchased modification was a car equipped with a 105 hp engine. The following types of wheels were installed at the factory:
- 175/65 mm;
- 185/60 mm;
- 185/65 mm.
The standard wheel size is 14 inches. Standard marking is 5.5J×14.
What kind of disks can be installed?
The size of wheels, tires, disks that are installed on a car have a direct impact on its technical characteristics. In the instruction manual, the manufacturer indicates the recommended dimensions, as well as acceptable ones.
The owner of the vehicle, in our case Lada Priora, independently decides what type and size of wheels and tires to install. For the average driver who uses the car as a means of transportation to and from work, the factory rim sizes are more than enough.
In case of tuning, changes in standard characteristics, dynamic indicators, it is necessary to refit the car with non-standard wheel sizes.
List of characteristics that can be changed by installing non-standard wheel sizes:
- Controllability;
- Road grip;
- Sharp and responsive steering wheel;
- Reduced/increased aquaplaning;
- Comfort of movement;
- Noise level;
- Combined cycle fuel consumption (see photo);
- Tread wear rate.
Which summer tires to choose for this domestic car
A wide range of summer tires are suitable for Lada Priora. The size must be selected based on the recommendations of the car manufacturers. Information on the characteristics of suitable tires can be found in the technical documentation.
As for summer products, parameters 195, 185 or 175 indicate the corresponding tire width, which is measured in millimeters. Next comes the profile height indicator, which is indicated as a percentage relative to the width. The last one is usually the tire diameter, it can be R15, R16 and others.
Fastener dimensions
It is important to know that before buying wheels for a Priora, you should pay attention to the dimensions of the fasteners. Now many car manufacturers are trying to switch to so-called metric fasteners, which are quite different from the SAE standard. Despite their external similarity, in fact, they cannot be called interchangeable
Despite their external similarity, in fact, they cannot be called interchangeable.
Example: There is a standard bolt that is half an inch in diameter. It also has 13 wraps, which is standard, and is one inch long. Now we compare it with a metric bolt of the same length. The metric bolt has a thread pitch of 1.75 mm and a total length of 25 mm. These two bolts will look identical, but in reality they cannot replace each other.
About tires on Lada Priora cars of 14 and 15 diameters
The sizes 14 and 15 inches are rightfully the most common for installation on the Lada Priora. The manufacturer clearly states the permissible tire sizes. This:
- 175/65 R14 82Н;
- 185/60 R14 82Н;
- 185/65 R14 86H;
- 185/55 R15 82H.
In addition, wheels with the following dimensions are also suitable:
- 175/70 R13 82T;
- 175/65 R14 82Н;
- 185/60 R14 82Н;
- 185/65 R14 86H;
- 185/55 R15 82H.
The choice of size for a personal vehicle depends only on the preferences of the car owner. Different tires may provide different characteristics; to obtain the optimal one, you must take into account all the manufacturer's recommendations. For tuning, Priora can even be equipped with wheels with a diameter of 17 inches. They do not have a high level of smoothness, but they noticeably decorate the car.
The size of tires and wheels significantly affects how a car behaves on the road. Each manufacturer indicates the acceptable sizes of tires and wheels; as a rule, this list is limited to several options. We'll tell you what other tires and wheels are suitable for the Priora besides the factory ones and how this will affect the operation of the car.
VAZ 2107 tires: features of operation and storage
Safety on the road directly depends on the condition of the wheels of the “Seven”. Therefore, you need to take a responsible approach to the choice of wheels and tires, monitor the condition of the tread and tire pressure. To do this, you need to know the parameters of the wheels, the nominal tire pressure, and the type of tread suitable for specific weather conditions.
Bolt pattern VAZ 2107
The first thing you need to pay attention to when installing wheels is the bolt pattern of the VAZ 2107. The design of the “seven” provides for the bolt pattern of the wheels “98x4” - fastening with four bolts, the holes of which are located on a circle with a diameter of 98 millimeters
Many foreign cars have a close bolt pattern - 100x4. In the first case, the distance between the centers of the bolts is 69.3 mm, in the second - 70.7 mm.
An error of 1.4 mm does not make it possible to properly fasten a “non-original” disk, which over time will lead to damage to the disk, bolts or mounting holes.
There are ways to attach 100x4 wheels to a VAZ 2107 using studs, eccentrics, spacers or extended bolts. But all of them either worsen the reliability of fastening or complicate it unnecessarily. Unless absolutely necessary, it is better to install “native” disks. Improper wheel mounting can cause imbalance and vibration, and in the worst case, a wheel falling off while driving can cause an accident.
Tire pressure VAZ 2107
The nominal tire pressure depends on the type of tire and the load on the vehicle. If the wheels are overinflated or low, the contact patch between the tire and the road changes. This causes deterioration in controllability and an increase in braking distance. In addition, uneven accelerated wear of the tread begins. Over-inflated tires increase wear on the center of the tire, while under-inflated tires increase wear on the edges.
It is recommended to check tire pressure after 500 km, but in practice it is better to do this more often. Small tire punctures, disc and spool defects cause air to escape from individual tires. In this case, the car may drift off course, especially when braking.
The nominal pressure in VAZ 2107 tires depends on the tire size:
- 165/80R13 - 1.6 for front, 1.9 for rear wheels;
- 175/70R13 - 1.7 for front, 2.0 for rear wheels.
In hot weather and when driving, tire pressure increases. With an aggressive driving style, taking sharp turns at high speed, the pressure can increase to 3-4 atmospheres.
The tire material is designed for this and can withstand such changes. But if there is a hernia or cut on the tire, it may explode.
A front tire explosion is especially dangerous, after which it is very difficult to keep the car on the road.
As pressure decreases, rolling resistance increases, which leads to increased fuel consumption. The tire also bends and the car becomes less responsive when maneuvering.
If the tire pressure is too low, the tires may even fall apart when cornering sharply.
Tire selection and storage
- The tire type must be appropriate for the season and road surface conditions. When the average daily temperature is below 5 degrees, you should switch to winter tires, and when it is warmer, to summer tires.
- Summer tires harden at low temperatures and lose grip on the road surface. Winter ones wear out intensively at high temperatures.
- You should not buy studded winter tires if you have to drive on city streets cleared of snow without leaving the city. The studs are good on snow and mud, but do not perform well on asphalt.
- Before storage, tires must be cleaned of dirt and washed.
- Tires should be stored upright on the floor or rack without any sharp edges that could damage the rubber.
- It is unacceptable to store tires hanging from the inner surface - in this position, the edge of the tire adjacent to the rim will be deformed.
- Do not store tires in direct sunlight or outdoors.
- It is unacceptable to place heating devices near tires.
Wheel bolt pattern on Priora. How to solve a problem?
Wheel loosening on a Priora really turns into a problem if you don’t know some tricks that can make such a procedure as wheel loosening on a Priora easy and effortless.
Method one. In order for the Priora bolt pattern to be successful, you can simply screw the disk onto regular elongated bolts. Another way would be to screw the disk with 3 bolts instead of 4. But this method is not safe and is used solely at the driver’s own risk.
Method two. The bolt pattern of Priora wheel rims can be done using special bolts - eccentrics. They make it possible to level out the resulting gap within a certain range, so they are often used by car enthusiasts.
Method three. Using studs, for example, from the cylinder head of a VAZ 2108, which are screwed into the hub, and the disc itself is tightened with nuts. In this case, the VAZ Priora bolt pattern can also be successful.
Whatever method of loosening you choose, you should always remember about the safety of movement. After all, wheels are the main element, on the reliability of which not only the comfort of movement, but also people’s lives depends.
Parameter importance
In any car model, the drilling parameter is listed as PCD, which stands for Pitch Circle Diameter. The presented indicators are important when choosing a new set of wheels, so that the car owner does not have any difficulties during the purchasing process. Knowing the meaning of drilling, you can choose the most suitable ones from all the wheels available in the store.
It is almost impossible to visually determine the distance between the bolts on a particular car.
But you can easily count the number of fasteners yourself. To measure the diameter, you need at least a ruler, or better yet a caliper, as well as knowledge of special formulas that vary depending on the number of fasteners used.
It is very important to remember that the incorrect selection of wheels and tires for the Lada Priora can lead to increased wear, breakdown, or even a traffic accident. If you purchased wheels with inappropriate mounting sizes, they must be replaced.
The use of non-conforming discs with different adapter rings is not recommended for safety reasons.

Types of disks
Lada Priora comes with alloy steel wheels, but you can install others, depending on your preferences. The options are as follows:
- Alloy wheels are standard factory products. They are the cheapest class among other types of wheels and are mainly used for the basic equipment of almost all economy class cars. They are not durable, have low resistance to impacts, and are practically irreparable.
- To create stamped models, unlike cast ones, special alloys are used. Alloys can significantly improve the characteristics of finished products, which can be noticed during operation. Alloy models can be repaired by straightening, so their service life is several times longer than their cast counterparts. They cost more, but last longer.

Review of the best summer and winter tires
For Lada Priora, stores offer a large selection of different tire models. Since models marked R14, R15, R16 are used on most modern cars. It won’t be difficult to choose suitable wheels for winter and summer – separately.
A good solution for summer travel will be the Toyo Proxes CF2. The cost of one tire of this model is no more than 2,200 rubles. Allows you to easily take sharp turns and provides excellent maneuverability.
An equally profitable purchase is BFGoodrich g‑Grip. Despite the low cost (only 2,180 rubles), it performs well on the highway and in the city. The presence of deep slats eliminates aquaplaning.
Conti Premium Contact 5 is the fifth generation of the Continental series. The cost of one such tire is approximately 2,700 rubles. The main advantage of this modification is the ability to travel at speeds of more than 190 km/h and a short braking distance even on wet asphalt.
Nokian Hakka Green is a good option; it will cost the buyer only 2,400 rubles. The tires of this model are perfectly balanced and have a rigid central rib. It provides good maneuverability.
You need to be especially careful when choosing winter tires. The budget solution will be NEXEN 175/65R14 WG ICE PLUS. There are no thorns on it. However, the deep tread will allow you to feel confident on any, even the most difficult road.
SAVA 175/65R14 ESKIMO S3 also do not have studs. However, deep tracks in the tread allow for excellent water drainage from the contact patch. This eliminates hydroplaning. Rigid sides make the car well controlled on any road.
GISLAVED 175/65R14 NORD FROST is equipped with a large number of studs - which significantly simplifies the procedure for moving on icy roads. Even bare ice will not be a hindrance. Steel spikes perfectly hold the car on the road surface.
PIRELLI 175/65R14 WINTER FORMULA is a balanced tire designed for a maximum speed of 190 km/h and a load of up to 475 kg. The presence of studs evenly distributed over the surface allows you not to worry about braking.
GOODYEAR VECTOR 4SEASONS GEN-2 will cost relatively inexpensively - just over 3,500 rubles. Weather Reactive technology was used in production. Thanks to it, the wheels can easily adapt to any, even the most difficult conditions.
It is important to use suitable tires - this will make the car easier to drive and prevent an accident. Installation of non-standard wheels is allowed. However, in some cases, modifications are required.

Recommendations for storing and caring for discs
- During a routine technical inspection, check the geometry and balancing of the wheel on a special diagnostic stand. If deviations are detected, restore the integrity of the structure;
- If cracks or dents form on the rim, immediately contact a service station for preventive maintenance;
- Avoid hitting road potholes at high and medium speeds. Regardless of the material or workmanship, the disk will be deformed and the seal will be compromised;
- Monitor the tire pressure; it should not be lower/higher than recommended by the manufacturer. If it deviates, pump it up;
- Switch to summer/winter mode in a timely manner. This means that in summer the tire pressure is 0.15 atm higher, and in winter it is lower by the same amount. The parameters are specified in the vehicle operating instructions;
- Tighten the rim nuts with a torque wrench. Excessive tightening contributes to the breakage of the studs, weak - an emergency situation, unscrewing the wheel.
In dry, sunny weather, cast aluminum wheels are least susceptible to external damage. But in slush, ice, when the road is strewn with various chemicals, the rim is most susceptible to corrosion. This provokes paint peeling and destruction of the molecular composition.
Systematic polishing allows you to get rid of scratches and burrs. First clean the wheel from dirt, dry it thoroughly, and then treat it with a chemical. Wipe several times with a microfiber cloth.
Store the wheels in a hanging position without touching each other. Pre-clean them, dry them, and wrap them in cellophane.

The consequences of too high or too low tire pressure are serious - it is necessary to operate the car with well-inflated tires. Regardless of the load, rubber used and diameter, the nominal pressure is considered to be 0.2 MPa. The width of the rim (5J, 5 ½, 6J) does not matter.
Using tire pressures above the minimum has the following consequences:
- quick grinding of the central part of the tire;
- poor handling;
- There is a high risk of the wheel exploding.
Moreover, if a tire bursts while you are not driving, this can lead to extremely unpleasant consequences. For example, if the front wheel on the driver's side fails, the car may drift into the oncoming lane. Which will lead to a serious accident. Tire pressure should be checked before each trip. It is best to use a special device for this - a pressure gauge. It can be mechanical or electronic.
Many owners specially inflate tires to 1.7-1.8 atm. The main reason is greater ride comfort - thanks to the low pressure, shocks to the suspension are practically not transmitted to the passenger compartment and to the steering wheel. However, low tire pressure causes:
- rapid wear of the tread - it wears down at the edges an order of magnitude faster;
- increased fuel consumption - for every 100 km of travel, gasoline is consumed by 5-15% more.
Operating a vehicle with half-flat tires is dangerous. It is advisable to avoid such practices.
Question answer
What tire and wheel sizes are recommended in KOLOBOX for the Lada Priora?
The size of tires and wheels suitable for a particular car depends on the year of its manufacture and modification.
Lada Priora, launched on the market since 2007, is currently presented in a single modification.
Judging by the table, the following tire parameters are recommended for this car: diameter 15 or 16 inches, width from 175 to 195 mm, profile (width to height ratio) from 50 to 70%.
Other variations of these sizes, up or down, are possible, but taking into account all the negative consequences associated with such tuning.
What tires are suitable for a Lada Priora car in the winter?
The winter tires supplied with this car have a special rubber composition that retains its softness and elasticity at different temperatures.
The sipes in the tread pattern of these tires have a special structure that removes excess moisture, dirt or snow from the surface of the rubber. Such wheels maintain the desired level of vehicle controllability in the winter season. However, factory tires also have their disadvantages: insufficiently strong fastening of the studs contributes to their rapid loss, and the noise emanating from the wheels while driving reduces driving comfort.
The table shows possible options for winter tire sets for the Lada Priora.
When choosing winter tires for a vehicle, you need to pay more attention to its quality characteristics than to its external ones. Low-profile high-speed tires, as a way to make the car more aggressive, are more appropriate in the warm season.
What tires are suitable for the Lada Priora in the summer?
The choice of summer tires for each car should be accompanied by a determination of driving style.
Drivers who prefer a relaxed driving style, maintaining an average speed level on city roads, can choose from budget high-profile models. They will provide the car owner and his passengers with the necessary level of safety and comfort while driving.
Fans of aggressive driving who choose low-profile tires are faced with high noise levels while driving. Every unevenness in the road surface is transmitted to the suspension, which reduces its wear resistance.
You can pay attention to the following brands of car tires: Maxxis, Kama, Cordiant, Goodyear.
What wheels are recommended for the Lada Priora?
Recommended wheel sizes for Lada Priora cars: 15 and 16 inches. These are the most comfortable driving options. It is also possible to install larger sizes, for example, 16 inches or more, but they require the purchase of low-profile tires.
The bolt pattern, as the main indicator that should be followed when choosing rims, on the Lada has the following form: 4 holes for fastenings located on a circle with a diameter of 98 mm.
What pressure is recommended for Lada Priora tires?
For tires with a diameter of 14 inches, you should adhere to the following pressure: 2.0 Atm with the possibility of reducing to 1.8 Atm for softer wheels. This option is suitable for those car owners who feel that the Priora tires are too hard and feel all the bumps on the road surface while driving.
For 15-inch wheels, the pressure should be maintained at 2.1-2.2 atm.
What kind of tires can still be put on the car after modifications?
Many Lada owners do not limit themselves to the list of products approved by the car plant, but install rollers of non-standard sizes.
Wheels with tires measuring 15, 16 inches, even R17 on Priora, fit without modifications with a tire width of up to 215 mm. Naturally, low-profile tires are used. For 17-inch wheels – profile 40-45%. For example, 205/40 R17, 195/45 R17. When installing such “rollers” you will need to remove the fender liners. It is difficult to find a product of this size with a drill and mounting hole standard for Priora. It is necessary to use spacers, centering rings, and eccentric bolts.
When installing non-standard rollers, it is necessary to pay attention to the disc overhang. With some parameter values, the wheel will not fit into the wheel arch, so you will have to trim the latter or make other changes.
Tires play an important role in safety, comfort of movement, and ease of driving. Therefore, you need to carefully select these consumables and monitor its condition.
Beading, rubber beading
All modern cars are operated with tubeless wheels. To ensure the tightness of the bead, the tire fits tightly to the rim of the disk, so it is difficult to disassemble such a wheel without a tool, especially when it is necessary to preserve the rubber being removed. High-quality independent installation of tubeless tires is also difficult.
If there are no other options to restore integrity, you can try to dismantle it, separating the tire from the rim:
Using a jack - its foot is installed on the tire near the rim, the upper part rests against the loop of the cable passed under the wheel, into the car, or another stationary, heavy object. When the jack handle is rotated, its lower part, lowering, will remove the tire from the rim. Having run over the edge of a wheel with a car. Impact method - using a metal corner and a sledgehammer. After the tire has been pressed off the rim on both sides, it must be removed with mounting blades. If you install it yourself, it is unlikely that you will be able to create a tight seal on a tubeless wheel; you should install a tube. Mounting blades are used for edging. You need to put the edge of the tire on the disk, install the tube inside, and fill the second bead.
