Hi there,

I have an oportunity to buy an 15" steel rims from a gtv as a winter set for my 147 (as now I have 17 supersport). I know that they are same 5x98 but what about other spec that J ect... Will be they plug and drive or?

Many thanks

But what about the wideness, 147 steel rims are 6J (can be fitted with 185/65/15), but i don`t know the GTV J on the steel rimes?

because their ET is different?

I found out that GTV ET is 30.5 and 147 ET is 40. What does this mean?

Well I was hoping that u can also fit chains in emergency need ... Longer bolts they will cost me half the price of the rims ... Can I use the ones from the gtv or they are same as 147?

So bottom line is that this option is no plug n drive. What about 156 steel rims?

I know thats why I wanted to use 185/65 is a standard profile i.e. cheaper and also I can use chains just in case ... So I should be after 156/147 or take the GTV with bolts and forget about the chains

Thanks mates.

So if I understand right, sry I am a bit noob about rims spec, the gtv coz of the smaller ET edge of the rim will be closer for a 10 mm to the wheelarch?
Having in mind that now I have 17"supersport and they are 7J so one inch more then steel rims(6J) BUT the the Et is 10mm less on gtv, I can make an conclusion that when I put gtv rims they probably will he ~10mm furder of the wheelarch i.e. edge of the rim will ne closer to the chassy in comparatiom to the current 17" ?

Also for the 185/65 they are smaller in diametar then other dimensions for 147 195/60/15 205/55/16 215/45/17 as I recall, since that is the only dimension recommendet for chains? My guessing is ok?

Thanks again.

BIG thanks David C !!!

So I will probably take GTV rims with the bolts as a temp solution till my mechanic finds out 156/147 rims.
