Often, the owners of Lada Kalina are wondering, and what discs and tires fit on this car? IN this case, The manufacturer has provided an answer to such a question and amounted to a list of possible installation options for Kalina. of different options Disk and tires. But, also a big role plays a breakdown.
According to the manufacturer's manufacturer data on Lada Kalina, you can set three sizes of tires. It depends on the year of the car. So, consider what existing options for installing tires in Lada Kalina:
- The most common size size is - 175/70R13. . it standard size "Zhigulevsky" tires, which takes its history from the "classics".
- The second most popular size on the vase, but the most commonly found in Lada Kalina - 175/65R14.
- The third standard option tire size is - 185/65R15.

Disc size
There are two options for installing disks to Lada Kalina according to the technical documentation:
- 5,5х14.
Wheel disk 5.5 * 14 * 98
- 6,5х15
Standard Wheel R15
Appearance on the 15th discs
To install other discs, you will have to replace some pendant and control details.
Tool and possible options
The breakdown is the fastening of the wheel to the hub using bolts or special studs. Simply put, this is the size of automotive "shoes".

For all generations of Lada, Valina is a standard 4x98, although there were experiments when part of the cars came from the conveyor with a non-standard parameter - 4x100.
conclusions
When selecting tires and drives Lada Kalina, all parameters should be taken into account. For proper Installation First, discs are selected with the appropriate size and breaking and only under them tires. On the contrary, it will look much more difficult. Replacing disks and tires is easily in the garage or on a tire terminal. After installing new items, it is necessary to make trouble-convergence to prevent elevated wear.
Car owners know that the VAZ recommends for "Kalina-2" only three sizes of rubber. Two of them are regular - we are talking about size 185/55 R15 (used with "casting") and 175/65 R14 (option for "casting" and for factory "stamping"). All this we, and here we are going to talk about what other sizes that are not included in the number of recommended factory are suitable and proven options. The review is based on the publications of tuning authors.
- 175/65 R14
- 185/60 R14.
- 185/55 R15
In the first and third case, we get the same outer diameter equal to 584 mm. It should be noted that the remaining option (185/60 R14) is not used, although it is recommended. If we talk about choosing disks, then their parameters must be as follows:
- PCD 4 × 98 (4 holes for fasteners with centers on circle D \u003d 98 mm);
- Departure ET-35 for any standard size from the number recommended;
- The rim width is 5, 5.5 or 6 inches (the diameter of the disk can be 14 or 15 inches);
- Dia - 58.5 (the diameter of the planting opening).
Even such a combination is not allowed to use: tires are 175 mm wide and drives with a rim width of 6 inches. Although the specified option is not the most acceptable. It is clear that only 185/55 R15 can be installed on 15-inch discs. It must be remembered that the use of tires and disks, which is not included in the list of recommendations, can lead to a loss of a warranty on the car. Nevertheless, here we will list just those options that are suitable, but are not recommended for the use of AvtoVAZ. Let's start with the bolder.
Installation of casting "17 inches"
See how Calina-2 hatchback may look like 17-inch drives:
Kalina-2 on a 17-inch cast, with understatement and without
Here are two versions of tuning, with understatement and without, and disks in both cases are used as follows: 7JX17 ET-38. Tires - 205/40 R17. According to the author of the first method, problems do not arise as a result. That is, the wheels are not cling to the body even when the car is loaded. The only thing that when you turn the steering to the stop, one of the wheels nevertheless hurts the metal, but this can be neglected.
You need to consider the following: if you just take and install discs with a rubber 205/40 R17, planting a hatchback or wagon "Kalina-2" will increase to 175 mm (the standard value is 160 mm). In general, the next step should be competently performed. Author's option: In the front suspension, racks and spring are applied in the front suspension, rear suspension Also provided with shortened shock absorbers and springs (- 90 mm). You can not underestimate anything, but simply install new discs, and this tuning method is tested by the owners in reality. But it is unlikely that the car with an increased up to 175 mm landing has better handling than the factory option. Select the choice for the owner.
How to better choose disks with a diameter of 16 inches
Calculate what is equal to the external diameter of the next size of the following size: 195/45 R16. It turns out a value of 582 mm. Which is 2 mm less than the outer diameter of the tires installed by AvtoVAZ itself. And the rim of the alloy disk of the increased diameter should not be already than 7 inches (you need 7JX16 discs). Interestingly, "Kalina-2 Sport" used tires of 195/50 R16, but we are going to establish more low profile rubber.
Different hatchback Kalina-2 with 16-inch discs Now, let's talk about the importance of departure. It is clear that it should be from the range of ET-35 - ET-38. When using a greater value, we exclude the possibility of "hooking" rubber metal, but add the load on running part. In general, the disks with the departure of the ET-38 can be installed if the warranty is not needed. The value recommended by AvtoVAZ, ET-35, is suitable: Many owners of VAZ cars acquire 7JX16 ET-35 discs, if we talk about 16 inches. On such discs, the rubber is 205 mm wide and 92 mm high, and it somehow goes. Our conclusions:
- 205/45 R16 - not recommended, but viable;
- 195/45 R16 - It is quite suitable.
Note that the conclusions belong to the option of using the discs of the following size: 7JX16 ET-35.
In conclusion, just in case we will list which discs are installed on Kalina-2 from the factory. If we are talking about casting and about a diameter of 15 inches, the rim width can only be equal to 6 inches (no less). Another option is 5.5JX14. This information needs to be considered must be taken into account - it is impossible to buy narrow alloy wheels with a large diameter.
Fastening holes in some disks are on a circle with a diameter of 100 mm. We need 98 mm, but one of the other will not work on the eye. Therefore, by making a choice, be careful. Unnecessarily remind that installing disks with incorrectly selected value pCD Parameter Forbidden. Successful tuning!

When you need to replace the discs to Kalina, the question arises, what to choose are the most factory or not. Cast often look more attractive, updated general form Machines, but how practical is it? What should pay attention to when choosing?
Characteristics of regular discs of different complete sets
Models of the first generation of viburnum are equipped with products 14 and 13 inches. The alloy option was released with a diameter R14. With this reduced tire profile it is possible to install and R15 (so made in the sports version).
For all modifications of sedan models, hatchback, universal, sport first The generations released in 2004-2013 were used the following dimensions:
- 5J disks at 13 ET40, suitable rubber - 175/70R13;
- 5.5J at 14 ET37 - 175 / 65R14;
- 6J at 14 ET37 - 185 / 60R14;
- 6.5J at 15 ET35 - 195 / 50R15;
- 6.5J at 16 ET45 - 195/45R16.
For all modifications of auto hatchback, wagon, cross, second-generation sports (from 2014), set such types of discs and tires:
- 5.5J on 14 Et35, tires - 175/65R14;
- 6J at 14 ET35 - 185 / 60R14;
- 6j at 15 ET35 - 185 / 55R15;
- 6.5J at 15 ET35 - 195 / 50R15;
- 6.5J on 16 Et35 - 195/45R16.
In the packages "Norm" and "Standard" of the second generation there are no factory alloy wheels. In the configuration "Lux" buyer can choose cast R14 and R15.
On which discs can be changed factory
When products are bought not from among the manufacturer offered by the manufacturer, the radius of the wheel should be taken into account, it should not be very different from the regular one. It is necessary to take into account the year of release of the car and its complete set. Wheel parameters are absolutely independent of the body shape: whether it is sedan, hatchback or wagon.
When choosing discs on Kalina, you need to know the number of mounting holes and the diameter of the circumference of their placement (drilling, LZ * PCD) - 4 * 98. The diameter of the main opening must correspond to the diameter of the car hub (DIA) - 58.6. The departure values \u200b\u200b(ET) must be selected by such as the manufacturer of the car recommends. Thus, for the models of the first generation 1117, 1118, 1119 wheels from R13 to R16 inches are suitable; width 5-6.5; Em 25-38; Dia 58.6; LZ * PCD 4 * 98. For the second generation 2192 and 2194 the following parameters are: R from 14 to 16; width from 5.5 to 6.5; Em from 25 to 35; Dia and LZ * PCD - similarly.
Properly selected wheels for the car Valina is safety on the road, reducing fuel consumption, extending the life of the transmission.
Steel or alloy: what is better and why
By the method of manufacturing a model is divided into two types. Steel (they are still called stamping) differ in that in production, all the details are welded. This is a simple technology, so the price of their low. Positive sides This option: discs are easily restored even with deep deformations, they have high reliability, durability, repair is simple and budget. Negative sides: complexity of auto-balancing, elevated weight, one-type appearance (It is possible to modify caps or paint coating), low corrosion resistance.
Alloy products are modern and more popular, their composition includes aluminum and magnesium alloys. According to the method of production, they are divided into cast, forged, combined, titanium.
| View | Manufacture | pros | Minuses |
| Cast. | The metal is poured into the forms, then treated the frozen surface. This method of production makes the structure of a metal grainy. | Low weight. | For long operation In the conditions of broken, the bug-in roads appear microcracks that can split the disk when powerful impact. Repair expensive, products are straightened on the machine. But after such a procedure there is no guarantee of reliability when exploiting. |
| Worn. | Made by the method of hot bulk stamping. Metal texture becomes fibrous and durable. | Low weight and high strength. | Forged aluminum or magnesium discs (quality of suite, stronger aluminum, the price is much higher, are manufactured by reservation). |
| Combined. | Alloy and wrought parts are connected by special bolts. | Repace, and the rim can be replaced, and the central part is to leave. | Considerable price that provoked mass fakes with decorative bolts. |
| Titanium. | Due to the large weight of the metal during the manufacture, reduce the thickness of the disks. | The most durable. | Have a high price. A small number of models are performed. |
When choosing cast copies, pay attention to the metal, which is part of the alloy: magnesium - lighter by weight, but with reduced strength; Aluminum - to a lesser extent susceptible to cracking. So what products are most suitable for Lada Kalina.? Each driver strives for maximum safety on the road. When choosing disks, the condition of the coatings should be analyzed by which the car will be operated and the style of its driving.
The advantages of steel disks - in an attractive value. In addition, it is possible to recover after deformation. When hit, they do not split, and fright, the parts of the suspension and steering control are minimally damaged.
Alloy wheels on Kalina have such advantages.
- A wide range of diverse models. Additionally, it is possible to paint.
- Low weight increases the dynamic suspension parameters, which increases driving safety.
- The best indicators of heat dissipation from brake nodes.
Alloy wheels are more popular in Europe. On the russian market, due to the quality of roads, most drivers choose steel or wrought.
