Lada Granta wheels: choice, size, bolt pattern

Wheels on a car are, without a doubt, one of the main components of the entire structure.

Currently, the AvtoVAZ concern installs wheels and tires of various diameters on the Lada Granta model range, depending on the configuration of a particular car.

In this article we will take a closer look at which tires and wheels are best suited for this model from the Russian manufacturer, as well as how increasing the diameter and width of the wheel from the “stock” one affects the car’s behavior on the road.

Factory tire and wheel sizes

In most cases, the Lada Granta is equipped from the factory with “stamps” and light alloy wheels with a radius of 13 and 14 inches, but not so long ago they also began to be equipped with 15-inch wheels.

Lada Granta in the “Standard” and “Norma” configurations were equipped with 13 wheels. But you need to look at the size of the front brake disc, it can be 14th wheel radius

These durable steel wheels consist of a rim onto which the tire is directly attached. This entire structure, or rather its elements, are connected to each other using strong welding. And for convenience during operation, each disc contains information about the width of the rim profile, the moment of disc departure and other indicators.

After a certain point in time, the wheel rims will need to be checked for lateral and radial runout. Such maintenance should certainly be carried out at tire service stations or technical service stations. service.

Wheel rim bolt pattern on Lada Granta

The manufacturer advises installing wheels on the Lada Granta with a diameter (A) of 13 to 15 inches, with a profile width (B) of 5-6 J, with an offset (ET) of 33 to 38 millimeters, with the usual AvtoVAZ bolt pattern - PSD 4*98 ,DIA 58.5 .

All these parameters are most clearly presented in this picture.

A little about wheels

Tires - Today, these are one of the most high-tech products on which safe and comfortable movement by car directly depends.

There are a large number of tires on the market today from many different manufacturers. They consist of a frame, a protector and a breaker layer between them.

And also the toughest part of the tire - the bead, which is designed for reliable fixation and sealing on the rim.

Disks - In the modern world, a wheel includes two parts: the rim - which is a surface closed in a ring with sides on which the tire is fixed, and the disk - which is a support for the rim with holes for fixing the entire wheel to the hub, most often using bolts or hairpins. Currently, there are the following types of discs: stamped, cast, forged, composite and combined.

Lada Granta wheels: standard dimensions, diameter, bolt pattern, width, offset, center

The domestically produced car Lada Granta is very popular among many car enthusiasts in our country.

In accordance with this circumstance, the demand for all components and spare parts for this AvtoVAZ model is also increased, including rims, the replacement of which is associated both with the wear and tear of old options and with the desire to change the appearance of the car.

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"

What wheels were installed on different bodies and configurations?

In four different configurations of Lada Granta, the diameter of the wheels used ranges from 13 to 16 inches:

Standard - 5Jx13ET35, 5Jx14ET35, 6Jx14ET
Standard - 5Jx14ET35, 6Jx14ET
Lux – 5Jx15ET35, 6Jx15ET
Sport - 5Jx15ET35; in the sports package they also began installing wheels with a 16 radius and low-profile tires in size 195/50R

The first digital designation of these markings indicates the width of the rim in inches, the following indicators from 13 to 16 are the diameter of the disk, ET35 is the offset in mm.

The standard bolt pattern parameters are the same as those of old VAZ models - 4x98, that is, 4 holes, the centers of which are located along a circle with a diameter of 98 mm.

The diameter of the central hole according to the hub used is 58.6 mm. The most popular rim size among Lada Granta owners is considered to be R14, but many people prefer to drive on 15 rims.

Standard disk sizes

When talking about wheel sizes, it is not enough to just mention their diameter. The remaining parameters are important for understanding whether they are comparable to the hub of a Lada Granta car, as well as what type of tire they are intended for.

For example, rim width is the size of the tire seat. The mounting hole pattern gives an idea of whether additional spacer adapters will have to be used. As noted above, this car uses a 4x98 wheel installation scheme with a center of 58.6 mm.

Disc offset is a fairly important indicator, especially when using wide wheels. It reflects in mm the distance from the hub mounting pad to the plane that visually divides the rim into two rings of equal width. Disc diameters are measured in inches.

As standard, the Lada Granta is equipped with sizes R13, R14, R15. It is rare to find a model with 16 discs.

The table shows the recommended tire sizes and the corresponding wheels.

TiresWheels

175/70R13	5Jx13ET35
175/65R14	5Jx14ET35, 6Jx14ET35

185/55R15	5Jx15ET35, 6Jx15ET35
195/50R16	6.5Jx16ET29

The numbers indicated through a fraction in the tire size mean: tire width / profile height as a percentage of the width. The Latin letter “R” indicates the type of tire - radial. The last numbers correspond to the diameter of the disk.

Parameters of standard nuts

One of the main parameters of nuts or bolts is the shape of their pressing surface, which can have several varieties. When selecting the necessary nuts, you should proceed from the shape of the recess in the mounting hole of the disk.

Most often it is necessary to use bolts or nuts with a cone-shaped clamping part. As a rule, the cone has an angle of 60°. Sometimes such bolts may have a 1.3 mm head and a nose at the end of the nut.

The clamping surface of the fastener can also be flat or hemispherical. It is important that the clamping planes of the fastener and the disk fully correspond to each other. Otherwise, over time, as a result of strong dynamic loads, the attachment point will weaken. When choosing nuts with closed heads, you should pay attention to their length.

If the pin prematurely rests on its inner part, then it will not be possible to fully tighten it. Also, nuts that are too short may not leave room for the socket head of the impact wrench. Some wheel models only allow the use of hex or star nuts.

When choosing bolts, you need to consider their length. A reliable connection can only be achieved if the bolt is screwed in to the entire threaded thickness of the hub. However, if it is too long, then when the car moves, such fasteners will begin to cling to internal structures.

Ideally, the tip of the bolt should only protrude a couple of threads when fully tightened. Bolts are made only from steel, but nuts can be steel, aluminum or titanium.

What drives can be installed

It is clear that any car manufacturer, just like AvtoVAZ, always recommends installing only its original sets of spare parts. But replacing a wheel rim with non-standard samples has long been considered completely commonplace.

Parameters for different brand models

To do this, you need to determine the following basic parameters:

The diameter of the rim, which is measured in inches.
The width of the rim, also measured in inches. Most often for the Civic it corresponds to 6.5.
Wheel offset, measured in millimeters. It is the distance from the vertical axis of symmetry to the plane of contact between the hub and the disk.
The number of holes for fastening with nuts and bolts, or simply a bolt pattern.
Hole for mounting the hub and its dimensions. Designated DIA and is the diameter of the center hole. Also measured in millimeters.

Lada Granta wheels

Lada Granta is a pretty new car. The first Grants appeared a couple of years ago and did not arouse much trust or interest, as the very ambiguous reputation of the manufacturer itself was reflected.

However, at the moment the Lada Granta is the best-selling car in all regions of the Russian Federation in its price segment.

In addition to the growing demand for the car itself, interest in consumables and car components, in particular, wheel rims, began to increase. The insufficient quality of roads in the Russian Federation leads to rapid wear or deformation of the disks, and yet choosing a high-quality sample for the Grant is not so easy!

What kind of disks can be installed?

The manufacturer recommends installing only the original set of disks on the Grant, however, many drivers often resort to installing analogues of non-standard parameters.

In the case of installing non-original rims or tires, it is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the vehicle: with the correct selection, the car’s handling will improve and the cost of components will decrease, if incorrectly, you will have to buy other new parts or repair the chassis and suspension in the near future.

This is interesting! Drivers operating the Lada Granta have more than once noticed that the original set of wheels for winter tires does not always successfully cope with the assigned tasks. Many drivers recommend choosing wheels for the winter with the narrowest form factor possible, which should have a positive effect on the vehicle’s handling.

Parameter description

The installed rims have a huge impact on the behavior of the car on the road, its stability, handling and other characteristics. Safety, dynamics and appearance will depend on their size and parameters. To select, purchase and install a wheel on a car, you need to have information about the bolt pattern parameter. At the moment, for the entire model range you can buy both original factory products and those produced by various domestic and foreign companies. For example, the popular brand “K&K” has an agreement with the manufacturer and produces a special line for Lada models.

Grant's bolt pattern, original wheel and tire dimensions

New wheels made in an individual design will help perfectly decorate the appearance of the vehicle. However, the most common reason for replacement is wear and tear or a change of season. But car tuning is still very popular. They do it to give the car a sporty feel. One of the main elements to replace when tuning is the wheel rim.

A similar rule applies not only to any Lada model, but also to any other car, regardless of manufacturer and model.

"Granta" is available in sedan, liftback and hatchback body styles. This allows car enthusiasts to choose the most convenient type of execution. The diameter, width and drilling of the discs do not depend on the body type.

Expert advice

When choosing tires for a car, you must first follow the manufacturer's instructions. Ask yourself a few questions.

On what roads will the car be primarily used?
Do you need increased cross-country ability?
How much of the route will be city roads and how much will be highways?
Will the vehicle carry heavy loads?

The answers to these and similar questions will help determine which tire parameters you need to pay special attention to.

How to choose the right wheels for Lada Granta 2016?

3 types of rims:

Stamped (economical price category) - made from a sheet of iron by stamping on a press.
Light alloy - manufactured by casting (more reliable than stamped ones).
Forged (the highest quality and more expensive than the previous ones) - made from light alloys by stamping at high temperatures.

The choice depends on financial capabilities. However, it should be borne in mind that the quality of the road surface on which you have to drive every day must also be taken into account.

So, if it gets into a hole, a stamped disk will bend and will not cause harm to the tire, but a forged or cast one can cut it. There is a possibility that the cast disc may burst or crack.

It should also be noted that repairing “stamping” wheels is cheaper than repairing cast or forged wheels. But wheels with high-quality cast and forged disks kill the suspension less, because lighter and have more perfect geometry (better balanced).

The same wheels may or may not rub with tires on the same car - wheel alignment adjustment will help here.

What is the tire pressure?

It is the driver's responsibility to constantly monitor tire pressure. This will avoid standard problems associated with vehicle operation. An abnormal pressure value often causes:

deterioration of management;
uneven tread wear.

Often the car owner independently reduces the pressure in the wheels of his own vehicle. This reduces the load on the suspension, and the car “passes” various road irregularities an order of magnitude easier. But it is worth noting: a decrease in pressure even by 0.1 MPa leads to serious problems. The main ones include:

increased fuel consumption;
rapid wear of the outer tread segments;
the car becomes less maneuverable.

An overinflated wheel causes no less problems. The central part of the cylinder begins to wear off quickly. In addition, at ambient temperatures of more than 60 degrees Celsius, the tire may simply explode. Which will lead to driving into the oncoming lane.

Is it worth increasing the Lada Granta track?

The track is the width between wheels located on the same axle. Increasing the track width allows the installation of wider wheels and improves vehicle handling, especially with a large suspension lift. But it’s clearly not worth increasing the track on Grant.

The track can be increased by using special spacers for the hub. Each car owner decides for himself whether to increase the track or not. But it’s worth knowing how this will affect other components of the car.

The fact is that the thicker the hub becomes and the thicker the wheel, the more the wheel bearing wears out. In addition, such tuning can negatively affect the drives. The grenades will be seriously loaded.

It is possible to carry out such tuning, but provided that a reinforced wheel hub is used, an appropriate bearing, and also paired with good drives.
