R17 wheels on Priora - pros and cons of installing giants

Parameters of alloy wheels

PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) diameter and the number of these holes.

For example, PCD100/4 - 4 holes with a diameter of 100 mm.

Since the mounting holes are made with a significant tolerance plus in diameter, you can make a mistake in choosing a PCD if it differs from the standard one by a couple of millimeters. For example, a PCD98/4 wheel is often put on a hub with PCD100/4 (98 mm from 100 cannot be distinguished by eye). It is unacceptable. In this case, of all the nuts (or bolts), only one will be fully tightened; the remaining holes will “lead away” and the fasteners will remain untightened or tightened skewed - the fit of the wheel on the hub will be incomplete. While driving, such a wheel will “beat”, in addition, not fully tightened nuts will unscrew by themselves.

Determining PCD by distance between bolt holes

DIA - diameter of the central hole for the hub or the central hole of the disk

ET - offset (or offset) of the disk (measured in mm).

This is the distance between the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the disk and the plane of the hub. The offset can be zero (the plane of symmetry of the disk coincides with the plane of the machine hub), positive (the plane of symmetry of the disk is closer to the center of the machine than the plane of the hub - as in the figure) and negative (further). For each car model, the offset is calculated by the manufacturer to ensure optimal stability and controllability of the car, as well as the least load on the hub bearings. The Germans designate the offset ET (for example, ET30 (mm), if its value is positive, or ET-30, if negative), the French - DEPORT, manufacturers from other countries usually use the English OFFSET. The desire to install wider low-profile tires that have appeared in recent years (sometimes on larger R-size wheels) leads to the need to select a wheel with a reduced ET (i.e. the tire has become wider - you need to move it outward from the body - otherwise it will start to touch it ) . Reducing ET makes the wheel track wider; - this increases the stability of the car and gives it a stylish racing look. An excessive decrease in ET is undesirable, because may result in increased load on the wheel bearings. Increase the reach, i.e. It is usually impossible to narrow the track - the disc will rest against the brake caliper.

Factory wheels for Priora - parameters, article number, price

Wheels on the Lada Priora are installed as standard from the factory, their sizes and parameters are as follows:

• Diameter 14 inches.
• Drilling LZ×PCD 4×98 mm.
• Width 5.5J.
• Reach ET 35 mm.
• Center hole diameter DIA 58.6 mm.

There are no alloy wheels for the Lada Priora of any other size, also in the range of the Lada Sport brand. Depending on the configuration, Lada Priora was equipped with stamped steel or light alloy cast wheel elements.

Advantages and Disadvantages: Dies and Casting

Basically, cars are operated with two sets of tires: winter and summer. Therefore, in order not to waste time and money on seasonal tire fitting, purchase a second set of wheels. The wheels on the Lada Priora are either stamped steel or light alloy cast, and the car owners decide what type of elements to buy.

Differences in steel stampings:

1. Low price.
2. Maintainability.

The main disadvantage of stampings is their high specific gravity. The disadvantages also include low resistance to deformation and the fact that they are monotonous in appearance and not interesting. But a bent steel stamping can be easily straightened even by hand, and when deformed, the wheel absorbs impact energy, protecting the suspension from damage. Therefore, this can be a plus to some extent. The design can be improved by installing wheel covers, but some people like the look of a car with stamps.

Casting looks more beautiful, weighs lighter, since light alloys are used in its manufacture, and almost any design can be cast. Improving the design of the car and reducing sprung masses are the advantages of installing casting. The main disadvantage is the high price. Casting is three or more times more expensive than dies of the same size.

Therefore, stamps are better for winter - even if the steel rusts (which should not happen with high-quality painting), the wheels are easy to tint and inexpensive to replace. The almost continuous design of the stamping sidewall better protects brake system parts from snow and mud.

List of wheel manufacturers for Priora and their price

Stampings and castings with a diameter of 14 inches are produced by many domestic and foreign companies. Among the stamp manufacturers, the following stand out:

• KFZ is an Austrian company that supplies wheels to many auto manufacturers. Model 5935 is suitable for Priora. Cost – 1300-1800 rubles.
• Mefro is a German company that produces high-quality, affordable parts. This company produces original spare parts for Lada, article number 21700-3101015, price 900–1100 rubles.

• Trebl is a Chinese brand. The brand's assortment includes a wheel with article number 53B35B for the Lada Priora, their price is approximately 950 rubles. Casting is represented by a greater variety than stamping. Unfortunately, many low-quality Chinese-made models are sold that are not durable enough. The production of cast elements is a technologically complex process, so choose casting from reliable companies.

Good light alloy wheels are produced by Russian manufacturers. K&K is a supplier of Lada conveyors. Products from the Krasnoyarsk plant are durable and of high quality.

Cast, steel or forged wheels for Priora

There are different types of wheels on the market, with dozens of options to choose from for your vehicle. Replacing this part in a car is most often due to the fact that the owner does not like the appearance of the device. Therefore, in most cases, when installing 17-inch wheels on a Lada Priora, it will be a matter of choosing beautiful and inexpensive alloy wheels. Still, it’s worth paying attention to forged offers with the following advantages:

• lightness - weight plays a huge role in this case, since the Priora suspension is designed for light loads and can show all its unreliability with a heavy wheel;
• unpretentiousness - even on unpredictable Russian roads, such products will not be deformed, and if there are minor defects, they can always be corrected at a service center;
• quality - special technologies are used in production that make it possible to reduce weight and increase the strength of the main parts of the wheel mechanism, taking into account its scope of use;
• many designs - forging looks much better than traditional light-alloy products, you can choose original solutions with an unusual and unconventional style;
• service life - such a wheel lasts much longer than traditional solutions, since there are no deformations or other damage, the disc can be used for many seasons in a row.

If you choose light-alloy options, do not buy overtly Chinese products. German, Italian offers, well-known Japanese companies guarantee the quality and durability of their products. These discs are heavier, they contain more metal, and they can withstand much greater loads. For the Russian road, such products can be relevant in all respects. But cheap Chinese goods will not please you with the quality of service on Priora.

Wheel sizes: what wheels can be installed on Priora

Wheel arches of Lada Priora accommodate wheels not only of standard size. Without modifications, the Lada Priora can accommodate wheels with a diameter of 15 and even 16 inches, naturally, together with lower-profile tires than the standard ones.

It is permissible to install rims with a width of 5.0–6.0J. For non-standard wheel configurations, wider ones are used: 6.5–7J. Overhang within ±5 mm. That is, wheels with an offset of 30 to 40 mm are suitable. The use of spacers allows you to install a disc with a different offset.

A large assortment of both stampings and castings allows you to select wheels for the Lada Priora in full accordance with the wishes and capabilities of the owner. The main thing is to use high-quality wheels that fit the size and the appropriate tires.

The reference information indicates that the standard size of Priora tires and wheels may be as follows:

• 175/65R14 (tubeless tires)
• 185/60R14 (tubeless tires)
• 185/65R14 (tubeless tires)

Basic data of standard Priora tires and wheels for adjustment, monitoring and maintenance:

The manufacturer allows the installation of wheels (rims) on the Priora with the following parameters: 5J-14H2 ET 35 and 6J-14H2 ET 35. Marking of wheels and tires

Alloy wheels on Priora

To visually understand how low-profile Priora tires change the appearance of the car, just look at the comparison photo: R14 wheels on Priora (Photo author): R15 wheels on Priora (Photo author): R16 wheels on Priora (Photo author): R17 wheels on Priora (Photo author): R18 wheels on a Priora (Photo author): By the way, do you know how to lower a Priora?

One of the flagships, the Lada Priora, was produced from 2007 to 2018, and during this period more than a million cars were sold in Russia and abroad. This means that the Priora really fell in love with the consumer, so today on the roads of the Russian Federation you can find both a completely new representative of this model and a car sold 10 years ago. Of course, many car enthusiasts invariably tuned their “iron horses,” and the main element of the exterior was always the wheels.

What does the size of tires and wheels affect?

Have you decided to choose winter tires for your Lada Priora? For winter it is recommended to choose narrow tires. The fact is that with such tires the pressure on the road surface will be greater, and therefore the grip on the road will improve. Wide tires are more sensitive to ruts in winter. Low-profile tires perfectly transfer even the smallest pits to the fifth point.

The smaller the unsprung masses

(this includes a lot of tires and wheels), the better the car will hold the road and accelerate faster. For example, if you put wheels on a car that are 2 kg lighter each, then acceleration to 100 km/h will be reduced by 0.2 seconds.

In conclusion, we present statistics that were compiled based on a survey that took place among Lada Priora owners. Results of the survey “What size are the rims on your Lada Priora?” the following:

1. 35% voted for R15 wheels.
2. R14 wheels received 26% of the votes.
3. For R16 wheels - 22%
4. 12% of owners drive on low-profile R17 tires.
5. Exclusive R18 wheels were installed on 4% of survey participants.
6. The rarest R13 wheels are owned by 1% of owners.

Let us remind you that for safety and to increase the service life of your tires, you should maintain the recommended pressure in the Lada Priora tires. Read other articles on tuning Lada Priora, easy search by content.

Attica wheels on Priora

Most of the wheels for this Lada model are produced at factories inside Russia, and they fully meet the quality requirements imposed on them by car owners, and also have a reasonable price.

"Lada Priora"

One of the most popular brands is Attika. Such wheels are even installed on luxury car models already at the factory, since the AvtoVAZ concern has direct agreements with suppliers. These wheels have the following characteristics and advantages:

• The wheels are produced at the K&K plant, which has long had a warm relationship with the automobile concern and provides impeccable performance properties.
• They have 2 color options at once - Black Platinum A, painted in a brutal dark metallic, as well as a light shade called Silver A, which is very convenient for both owners of black and white cars.
• They are available in several radius sizes - R13, R14, R15, and also have a width of 5.5J and 6.0J, which is especially convenient for seasonal changing of wheels, when in summer a tire width of 175 mm is sufficient, and in winter you can install 185 mm for better grip. with a slippery road surface. Exclusive, more expensive options for low-profile tires are also available in sizes R16 and R17.
• Due to our own production in Russia, the cost of production does not include unnecessary expenses for transportation and customs clearance of cargo, which makes the wheels relatively cheap - the entire set of 4 wheels costs from 10 thousand rubles* with a minimum size.
• Various design options, characteristics of reach, including negative ones, will satisfy the wishes of even the most demanding customer.
• They are sold at almost every authorized VAZ dealer and at numerous car markets in the Russian Federation in huge quantities, which allows the driver to replace even one wheel without purchasing a whole set, as sellers often require when selling imported products.

How to choose the right wheel size for a Lada Priora

In order for the car owner to make the right choice and purchase exactly the wheels he needs, he must know a few simple rules regarding this brand of car, in particular:

• All wheels on the Lada Priora, regardless of manufacturer, size and material, must have the same drilling and bolt pattern parameters: the diameter of the central hole is 58 mm, and the length and number of studs, traditional for all VAZ models, is 4x98.
• R14 is the most popular option, since it is the one that is installed at the factory, and when changing disks you can always contact an official dealer without resorting to any expensive products in markets and car shops. The main dimension of these wheels is 5.5J x 14H2 ET35, and the special design of the wheel arches with a rim offset of 35 allows you to install several tire sizes at once - 175/70R13, 175/65R14, 185/60R14, 185/65R14 and 185/55R15, as in both winter and summer versions.
• Wheels on the Priora R15 are a less popular option; they can be either stamped, cast or forged; they are used to replace wheels yourself, at the driver’s request. The main geometric parameters of such wheels are 6.0J x 15H2 ET35, and from this it can be seen that the rim offset relative to the center of the mount is the same value as the previous version, which means that the tires should be installed with a smaller profile, which is better adapted to sports driving on good roads. The main recommended tire size is 195/55/R15.
• R16 - wheels installed specifically for sporty driving around the city in the summer, can be either “stamped” or “forged”, have a complex design and correspond to the status of the car owner. For the Priora, 2 main sizes are suitable at once - 6.0J x 16H2 ET35 and 6.5J x 16H2 ET35. In this case, rubber can also have 2 main parameters - 195/50/R16 and 205/45/R17, and the latter option obliges the car owner to install additional plastic mud flaps around the perimeter of the wheel arch, and otherwise a wide wheel will definitely quickly pollute the body of the Priora. .
• For the most sophisticated drivers, wheels with parameters of 6.5J x 17H2 ET35 are offered, which can be equipped with 205/40/R17 tires, and they are much more expensive than the previous ones, and are also often available in a forged version. However, with such low-profile tires, the driver can safely drive on asphalt at maximum speeds and not be afraid of sharp turns.

R17 wheels for Lada Priora

Alloy wheels for Lada Priora - photo selection in sizes R14 and R15

Content

The most popular wheel sizes on Priora are R14 and R15. It is much less common to see R16 and even larger ones installed on cars. True, here you will have to select low-profile tires, and get used to the roar of the suspension in our pits. Therefore, in our photo selection we will look at 14 and 15 inch models. The indicators will be like this:

— 14 / 5.5J PCD 4×98 ET 35 CO 58.6 — 15 / 6.0J PCD 4×98 ET 35 CO 58.6

• Index J - rim width
• PCD 4×98 - drilling, mounting holes and diameter between them
• ET 35 - standard offset, can vary from 35 to 40. Select the offset based on the size of the purchased tires
• CO (central hole - for the hub) - also fixed size 58.6 mm

As you can see, the main indicators of wheels for both 14 and 15 diameters will be identical with the exception of the rim width (J). For a larger diameter and wider rim. Otherwise, everything is the same - drilling, offset and central heating.

We have decided on the main standard sizes, next we will go on a photo selection of alloy wheels on the Priora - photos not of a real car (some photos are taken from the Drive2.ru website), we will briefly talk about the manufacturer, and summarize people's reviews. So you can figure out how certain wheels will look on your Priora. Go…

Scud Uran-2

Let's start with a very popular casting among our drivers - Skad brand wheels. Our, domestic wheels. The office has already established itself, has been on the market for a very long time, high-quality products, top-notch equipment in the factories, inspections, everything. Reviews from car enthusiasts are mostly positive - in fact, Scud rollers are reliable, light enough for casting (depending on the model) and strong. Our roads are plagued by potholes. The Uran-2 model is one of the most popular. Available in size R14 only, please note. 5 strong powerful beams - a shockproof model for sure. There are reviews from people who note their extraordinary strength, but again the paint is scratched. Rating 4.5 out of 5 and that's cool.

The classic of the genre is the 8-pointed star. The internet is full of reviews, to summarize - they are strong, the paint holds up well, even white, the price tag is normal. Available in sizes 13, 14 and 16 inches. So if you want to install R15, then Kallipso does not have such a modification (according to Yandex Market data).

There are reviews on the Market in which drivers note the strength of the discs (not all, someone managed to crack a disc in a pit). The overall rating is 4.5, so it’s certainly worth paying attention to. However, if you are flying on the highway, it is still better to take a model with thick spokes.

K&K Torus

Toruses are a classic of the VAZ genre, perhaps the most popular casting model for domestic cars. Available in one size R14. A huge number of positive reviews - very strong discs, reliable, indestructible. If you are not chasing appearance, but you only need reliability, then your choice is definitely Torus. K&K is our domestic brand, it has been on the market for a long time)) An excellent option for inexpensive casting for your car.

KiK Iguana

Super popular model, unusual roller design. Wheels of a combined color - silver and black - look especially great. Very often you can see these skating rinks even in our city. People note the excellent quality, the wheels are strong and the paint holds up well (if you decide to choose white). Huge selection of sizes - from 13 to 17 inches. That is why these rollers are so popular, because with their help you can make even a six-wheeler look chic. There are a surprising number of reviews - everyone notes the chic appearance, the strength of the wheels when driving over bumps and holes, and the inexpensive price tag.

K&K Spark

The spark is available in sizes R14, R15 and R16. Thin knitting needles - original design, looks expensive and elegant. This model is ideal for the city and for routes with good roads. If you fly into a serious hole, the thin spokes may break. On the other hand, this model is noticeably lighter than its “brothers” - a 14-diameter disc weighs only about 7 kg versus 8-9 with five thick arms. So for the city, to save gas, this model is ideal.

ALCASTA M32

Alkasta is another great brand that produces cool castings. The M32 model is practically legendary, all the indicators are ideal - the wheels, due to their design (thin 50-pointed star), are very light, but at the same time quite strong. This model is available in the following sizes - R14/15/16/17/18/21. Priora - 14th and 15th wheels. There are a lot of reviews on the Internet, drivers note their memorable appearance, beauty, and are quite strong.

People fell in love with them for their huge selection of models, quality workmanship and low price. The 236th model is beautiful and clear.

There are a sufficient number of reviews on this model, summarizing which we find out that the discs are strong, impressive, easy to clean and inexpensive. In general, Nitro “skating rinks” have long become “popular” and we recommend paying attention to any model.

NZ Wheels SH529

NZ - factory China, modern factories and quality control. There are few reviews from the people, the casting seems to be strong, but there are precedents for a split. High speeds, bad roads, and even low-profile tires - even a Chinese wheel may not withstand it. Although Nitro is also China and the quality is normal. The same can be said about the NZ Wheels castings. Model 529 - R14 rollers only, one color - silver-black. They look great, I think it’s a good option for the city. You need to be more careful while driving on the highway.

NZ Wheels F-6

Classic 5-beam design, the arms are thick and quite strong. They are rarely seen on cars, so this is an option to stand out from the crowd. Sizes - 15, 16, 17 and 18. So it will fit on Priora only in size 15. There are very few reviews on NZ models, I found only a couple specifically for the model - in general, people are happy, beautiful wheels, more or less withstand impact (over small potholes). As an inexpensive casting option for Priora in size R15.

Characteristics of alloy wheels "Black Edition" on the Lada Priora

Along with foreign automobile concerns, AvtoVAZ always offers its customers several variants of cars of the same model, and each modification has its own advantages and, accordingly, different prices. One of the flagships of the model is the Black Edition modification, which has been produced since 2016 and has the largest number of technical and electronic innovations. But the most notable thing is that it has a beautiful glossy black metallic finish and additional stylish moldings, also black.

The wheels for this configuration are also unusual. First of all, this is a high-quality “casting”, with a stylish wheel design - 12 thin spokes evenly support the rim, creating a feeling of sporty style. In addition, the increased strength of steel eliminates the risk of wheel deformation even when falling into a deep hole or hitting an obstacle.

The wheels are painted matte black, and it matches perfectly with the shade of the body of the car itself and gives the Priora a menacing look.

The wheel size 6.0J x 15H2 ET35 allows you to install 195/55/R15 tires, which largely ensures stability on the road, and also allows you to install winter tires without purchasing new wheels, because the parameters are universal for any season of the year.

Wheels for Priora Black Edition

Priorovskie wheels from Grants Sport

Often, Priora owners pay attention to the exclusive car from the concern - Lada Granta Sport. The car is made in the spirit of the times, has a real combat look and wheels with parameters 195/50/R16. Almost every ambitious Priora owner has a great desire to install just such wheels on his car, but there are both advantages and disadvantages, namely:

• Multi-spoke alloy wheels with these geometric parameters, crowned with a massive steel rim and low-profile tires, create a stunning effect, distinguishing the car from the rest on the road.
• The Chinese manufacturer was able to satisfy the quality requirements of the plant, and all wheels come perfectly smooth and homogeneous in composition and do not require serious balancing when installing them assembled on a car.
• One of the downsides is that these wheels on the Priora are in no way compatible with the fender liners, since the rubber simply rests against them and wears them out, which also damages the protectors. To avoid this, the driver will have to completely get rid of the plastic protection on his car, exposing the body to aggressive environmental influences, especially in winter.
• In addition, the cost of these products is clearly too high, and it is advisable to install it only on the premium Priora models, since otherwise they will stand out too much against the background of a poor exterior package without sports body kits, moldings, grilles and headlights.

Wheels for the Lada Granta Sport
Thus, experts advise car enthusiasts to refrain from installing these wheels and try to find something on the market that is more suitable specifically for the Priora.

Let's sum it up

Installing 17-inch wheels on a Priora is indeed possible. The only question is the feasibility of such tuning. This makes sense as one of the stages of changing the appearance of the car. In this case, you get good opportunities for operating the vehicle and quite adequate performance if you also change other suspension parts. The brakes will have to be replaced with a larger diameter and other better quality pads purchased. The struts can be raised by also purchasing better springs. All parts should be selected from foreign cars, having previously specified compatibility with fasteners.

But if you don’t want to invest hundreds of thousands into your car, then you shouldn’t even think about 17-inch wheels. The car will feel much more confident on 15 wheels, which will cost you much less and will not require replacing half of the suspension. Make sure you buy products with the correct width and adequate solutions in all areas. It is precisely these opportunities that will help you judge sensibly about all the advantages and disadvantages of purchasing large wheels on a VAZ. Also look at the finished results of such suspension tuning to imagine the future result. What do you think about such changes in the domestic car?

What kind of wheels can be installed on the Priora hatchback?

Over the 11-year history of its existence, Lada Priora has been produced in various body modifications: sedans, station wagons, coupes and even hatchbacks, which are considered more exclusive, and the manufacturer offers slightly different wheel rim options that have been officially registered for the model.

Due to the fact that the Lada Priora hatchback is considered a more prestigious and expensive modification of the model, 14-radius wheels are not installed on it at all, and all models in the factory version have wheel parameters of 6.0J x 15H2 ET35, which is quite convenient for installing tires both 15 and 16 radii.

These dimensions are also suitable for this car, subject to the necessary drilling, bolting, strengthening the suspension and careful operation of the car on small profile tires, because many drivers refuse 40 or 45 lift, considering it “duct tape”, unsuitable for comfortable driving.

If the car will be used for transporting goods, you should choose either the cheapest stamped Lada Priora wheels, which you won’t mind replacing later, or, on the contrary, high-quality “casting” or forged wheels, since damage is possible when driving under a significant load. In addition, tires must always be tubeless and also of good quality in order to avoid their rupture during operation.

Exclusive wheels for Priora

Drivers who want to change the color of the wheels can not overpay for already painted wheels, but purchase a cheaper but simpler K&K brand, then contact a tuning studio for this service, and it will be performed without a major blow to the owner’s budget.

To prevent damage to the suspension from too low a rubber profile, the chassis must be strengthened in specialized workshops, and after this procedure the car will operate reliably for many years and will not be afraid of potholes on the road.

“Lada Priora” can easily be called the people's car. At the same time, this is the car to which its owners probably made the most changes and modifications. And a lot of them are related to suspension and tires. This is all the more paradoxical since in the first versions only one wheel size was offered on the Lada Priora. But let’s take a step-by-step look at what wheels are on the Priora and which ones can be installed.

Wheels for LADA Priora

For a long period of time, car enthusiasts had the opportunity to equip their cars with exclusively heavy and bulky stamped wheels, which could hardly be considered unpresentable. Fortunately, in the modern market the situation has changed significantly, and customers are presented with a wide selection of disks from various manufacturers and different types of designs. Models have appeared that are lightweight with high strength, reliability and service life. One of the most optimal options in terms of aesthetics, quality and lightness are alloy wheels.

They are made from high-quality aluminum alloys, characterized by moisture protection, low weight and numerous design options. Such disks cannot be restored if damaged, but they are still among the most popular.

Today we presented a wide selection of alloy wheels for LADA Priora from various manufacturers. However, you must be aware that when choosing wheel products, you must adhere to the factory recommendations regarding the radius of the rims.

Installing too large or small disks that do not suit the specifications will have negative consequences:

• fuel consumption increases noticeably;
• the percentage of suspension service life increases;
• maneuverability and controllability become smaller.

With us you can find these elements automatically using our catalog. The choice of alloy wheels is made based on many values, including:

• mounting size, which must completely match the internal size of the tire;
• the number of holes for installation, as well as their size - the marking of the disk must correspond to that indicated in the instructions;
• Wheel offset is the distance from the wheel mount to the plane of symmetry. If it is wide with a short offset, then this will give the car additional stability and design, but increases the impact on the hubs;
• rim width - it characterizes riding comfort and speed.

To select the required wheel size, you can simply indicate the modification and year of manufacture of the car. The system itself will select the disks that best match these characteristics. If you have any questions, you can call us - our consultants will provide the most complete information, as well as assistance in selecting the necessary equipment.

Factory wheels on Priora

When production started in 2007, the car was offered with only one wheel option. In the factory configuration, the tire size marked 185/60R14 86H was used, and the wheel rim on the Priora had parameters of 5.5Jx14 4/98 ET35 d58.5. This decision was dictated by the need to save money and reduce the cost of the car. And judging by data from the official website, this continued until 2015.

And only from 2015 to 2022, five options for wheel parameters for Priora appeared in the operating manuals. Therefore, you can see in the table what wheel size the Priora had in the last years of production of this model.

What wheels are installed on the Priora from the factory? Wheel rims were either stamped steel of our own production (most often from the Tolyatti Steel Wheels Plant (T3SK)), or cast wheels produced by K&K. The most popular model of alloy wheels is “Attica”. AvtoVAZ's factory tires are supplied by Nizhnekamskshina and Sibur-Kordiant.

It’s also worth stopping at thirteen-inch wheels. They were installed only on cars with eight-valve engines, and cars with this configuration were equipped with smaller brake calipers. That is, you cannot use 13-inch wheels for installation on cars that are factory equipped with fourteen-inch and fifteen-inch wheels.

However, replacing wheels with a smaller radius on a Priora is a rare case. And judging by unofficial online surveys, thirteen-inch wheels cost less than 1% of cars of this model in all of Russia. Quite the contrary - car owners want to increase the diameter of the wheels on their Priora. Below we will discuss how this can be done so that such tuning does not affect handling.

How will the behavior of the Lada Priora on 17 wheels change?

A fashionable change will not only be a visual reformation of your car. The technical characteristics of transport will change significantly. We have already talked about some reforms, discussing the pros and cons of such modifications. But it is worth remembering the main transformation. This is the comfort of the trip. For some reason, many people believe that large rims protect against minor bumps and make the car softer. In fact, the behavior of Priora at 17″ will be as follows:

• the stiffness of the suspension will increase significantly, and this will be a very noticeable change for the car; medium and large bumps in the car will go through with a roar and shaking in the cabin;
• the smallest bumps will indeed be easier to overcome, but without modifications to the suspension, driving the car will be quite unpleasant, and the reaction to potholes will increase;
• you will have to get used to all the habits of the car, including braking and steering, so first you should drive along less active streets and try all the driving modes;
• the ground clearance will not change too noticeably, so when undertaking this whole change for the sake of raising the car, it is worth abandoning this idea and applying other methods;
• turning the steering wheel on a stationary car without power steering will become an almost impossible task, the ride comfort for the driver will change significantly, and this is also not the best change.

Looking at such reformations, many may abandon the idea of ​​​​installing giant wheels on the Priora. In fact, it sounds worse than it feels. After several days of driving your new acquisitions, you will feel confident in the car. Only in some situations will the non-original nature of the wheels be visible, which exceed all reasonable limits for a given car. And this is important to consider if you didn’t like the changes on your first trip. Don't rush to change everything back.

Wheel bolt pattern on Priora

First, let’s talk about the bolt pattern parameters on Priora wheels. It is always 4x98, that is, all wheel rims are mounted with 4 bolts and the distance between them is 98 mm. The size of the central hole of the wheel rim is always 58.5 mm.

Disc with bolt pattern 4x98

Let us remind you that this parameter is important to take into account when selecting alternative wheels for your car - you simply cannot install wheels with a different bolt pattern, so always study the markings on the disk.

The disc mounts on the Priora are marked M12x1.25, where 12 is the diameter of the stud in mm, and 1.25 is the thread size. But if you install non-standard size wheels, you will have to buy extended mounts.

We also add that the 4x98 bolt pattern is traditional for almost all AvtoVAZ models. Including for the VAZ-2110, which was the predecessor of the Priora. Although the wheels from Vesta will not fit on the Priora, when switching to the new model, AvtoVAZ decided to install wheels with a 4x100 bolt pattern.

Wheels suitable for Priora

What wheels can be installed on the Priora if you want to replace the factory ones? AvtoVAZ does not recommend tire sizes other than those specified in the operating manual, which we indicated above! But the manufacturer allows wide wheels on the Priora. But only if you change the rim width.

For thirteen-inch wheels, it is allowed to increase the width from 5 to 5.5 inches. And for fourteen-inch wheels, it is allowed to use wheels that are narrower or wider than standard - either 5-inch wide or 6-inch wide instead of the standard 5.5J wide. For fifteen-inch wheels, it is not recommended to change the rim width!

Also, according to AvtoVAZ, it is not worth changing the wheel offset. In fact, you can only install large wheels on a Priora without violating the manufacturer’s requirements if you have 13 or 14-inch wheels. But when have car owners been stopped by a car manufacturer's recommendations? If the question is “what wheels to put on a Priora,” many are even ready to make changes to the design of the car just to achieve a stylish result. Therefore, there are quite a lot of options.

What wheels are installed on the Priora as an alternative?

Priora on 17-inch wheels

The huge list of options on the Priora can be explained by the fact that even standard wheels have a height of 575 mm (175/70 R13) to 596 mm (185/65 R14). It is these dimensions that you should focus on when choosing alternatives, so that the new wheels fit into the wheel arches and do not rub against the fender liners. And this also allows you to install even 17-inch wheels with 205/40 R17 tires on the Priora, which have a total height of 596 mm. Moreover, without changing the design of the car, that is, cutting the bumper or arches.

In the case of an overhang, a calculator will help you decide which wheels can be installed on the Priora. The smaller the offset, the more the wheels stick out. But you can compensate for this with the width of the rim. Or if you want to install wider wheels, then it is better not to change the offset. Or get wheels with a longer offset so they sit deeper. Also focus on how many millimeters you still have left in the wheel arches.

We have compiled the list of acceptable wheel sizes for Priora into one table.

As for brands, as a replacement for discs, car owners prefer products from the “original” manufacturer K&K, as well as popular companies SLIK and VSMPO. Let's talk about tires separately.

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. (Prices are current for 2022.)

DUNLOP SP SPORT FM800 195/45 R16

Viatti Strada Asimmetrico 175/65 R14

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).

Winter wheels on Priora

Winter tire options for Priora are available in the table below. But with large-diameter winter tires that sit side by side in the summer, don't forget that an aggressive tread pattern can increase the size of the tires and, as a result, they will catch on the fender liners.

Compatibility of tires and wheels Lada Priora

Based on reviews from owners, we have compiled a list of Priora wheel size compatibility:

• On R14 wheels you can install tires with the following parameters: 175/65 R14, 175/60 ​​R14, 175/55 R14, 175/50 R14, 175/45 R14, 175/40 R14, 185/65 R14, 185/60 R14, 185/55 R14, 185/50 R14, 185/45 R14, 185/40 R14, 195/50 R14, 195/45 R14, 195/40 R14, 205/55 R14, 205/50 R14, 205/45 R14, 205/40 R14 and 205/32 R14.
• R15 wheels on Priora are installed with tires: 175/60 ​​R15, 175/55 R15, 175/50 R15, 175/45 R15, 175/40 R15, 185/55 R15, 185/50 R15, 185/45 R15, 185/40 R15, 195/50 R15, 195/45 R15, 195/40 R15, 205/50 R15, 205/45 R15, 205/40 R15 and 205/32 R15.
• R16 wheels on Priora are equipped with tires: 175/50 R16, 175/45 R16, 175/40 R16, 185/50 R16, 185/45 R16, 185/40 R16, 195/45 R16, 195/40 R16, 205/40 R16 and 205/32 R16.
• R17 wheels among Lada Priora owners ; the following tires are allowed: 175/45 R17, 175/40 R17, 185/40 R17, 195/40 R17 and 205/32 R17.

It is important that the total diameter of the wheel is close to the factory value. To understand what tires and wheels can be installed on the Priora, we have compiled a compatibility table. The left one is for the minimum diameter (185/60 R14), and the right one is for the maximum diameter (185/65 R14):

Green indicates the minimum deviation of the wheel diameter (up to 3 mm); Orange indicates a diameter deviation from 3 to 6 mm.

Thus, you can install the following disks on Priora:

• 175/70 R13 , 205/65 R13, 205/60 R13, 225/60 R13, 225/55 R13;
• 175/70 R14, 175/65 R14 , 185/65 R14 , 185/60 R14, 205/60 R14, 205/55 R14, 215/55 R14, 225/50 R14 ;
• 175/60 ​​R15, 175/55 R15, 185/55 R15, 195/55 R15, 195/50 R15, 215/50 R15, 215/45 R15, 225/45 R15;
• 175/55 R16, 175/50 R16, 185/50 R16, 185/45 R16, 195/50 R16, 195/45 R16, 205/45 R16, 215/45 R16, 215/40 R16;
• 175/40 R17, 185/45 R17, 185/40 R17, 205/40 R17;
• 175/40 R18.

We advise you to choose only those tires that AVTOVAZ recommends (they are highlighted in bold in the list).

Don't forget about the rim width:

When installing tires or wheels that differ in parameters

from those recommended by the factory, you can:

• be refused warranty repair of the chassis;
• be stopped by a traffic police inspector, who has the right to draw up a report on the car’s non-compliance with the requirements of the Technical Regulations;
• fail to pass technical inspection.
