The choice of disks for the VAZ 2107 has always been the subject of a dispute between car owners. Stamped discs are cheap, durable, unpretentious and available at any car dealership. But it is worth trying to improve the appearance of the car, the first thing you want to do is to install cast or other light-alloy disks on VAZ 2107 .
Therefore, the question of choosing disks is worthy of detailed consideration.
Wheels for VAZ 2107
Wheels, light-alloy (cast, forged, assembled) or stamped, perform the same functions:
- transmission of torque to the tires of the driving wheels;
- ensuring uniform tire compaction around the circumference;
- ensuring the rigidity of the structure and the correct location of the tires in the suspension.
On the "classic" light-alloy and stamped 13-inch wheels with four mounting bolts are used. As a tuning, 14-inch wheels can be installed.
Benefits of stamped discs:
The disadvantage of stamped discs is a lot of weight. The greater the unsprung mass, the faster the suspension degrades and the worse the handling on bad roads. In this regard, stamped wheels are much inferior to light-alloy wheels. The second drawback is susceptibility to corrosion, which is why they must be periodically cleaned and tinted.
The advantages of light alloy wheels:
Disadvantages of light alloy disks on VAZ 2107 :
- A fragile material that does not bend, but shatters when hit hard. If the disc does not crack after a strong impact, it still does not bend. Therefore, rubber on light-alloy wheels has a much higher chance of damage if it falls into a pit.
- Shorter service life than stamped steel discs.
- High price and attractiveness to thieves.
The high price of alloy wheels makes you take a responsible attitude to their selection.
Types of alloy wheels
According to the production method, light-alloy wheels are divided into three types:
- Cast - made by casting from an alloy on an aluminum or magnesium base. The latter option is more expensive. The physical characteristics of alloy wheels differ depending on the alloy used. Accordingly, the price differs. The weight of alloy wheels is one third less than that of steel. They look better, but the high brittleness of the material often causes chips when hitting the edge of a burly pit.
- Forged differs from cast production technology. Hot stamping allows for lighter weight and greater strength than casting. Also, such discs are less fragile, which increases their durability. The impact force for deformation of a forged disc is much greater than for a steel one. Therefore, with strong impacts, more loads are placed on the car's suspension.
- Prefabricated, assembled from spirit-three parts with bolts. Parts of the collecting disc are manufactured using different technologies. For example, the rim is forged, the disc is cast. This approach reduces disk weight and increases maintainability. Assembled discs can be 2-3 times lighter than cast discs. When choosing a collecting disc, you should pay attention to the material of the bolts. They must be titanium. Steel bolts are susceptible to corrosion, which degrades the appearance and performance of the disc.
Selection of alloy wheels
Wheels on the VAZ 2107 must correspond to the predominant use of the car. Low profile discs are not suitable for driving on bad roads; if you need good handling at high speed, a high profile will not be the best choice.
The main thing is the compliance of the geometric dimensions of the disks with the parameters of the car.
- The nominal size of the VAZ "classic" disk is 13 inches. Alloy wheels can be fitted in 13, 14 and 15 inches. But it should be noted that with a larger disc diameter, a lower tire profile should be used. Otherwise, the wheel will rub or will not fit into the wheel arch at all. Consider. That low-profile tires will be especially easy to damage when hitting a pothole in the asphalt.
- Rims that are too wide (over 30 mm overhang) will provide better grip, but the tire edges constantly protruding from the mud flaps will cause severe contamination of the sides of the car. Also, a wide wheel can touch the wheel arch liners.
- The standard VAZ wheels have four holes for the mounting bolts. The diameter of the circle on which they are placed is 98 mm. In other words, the distance between a pair of diametrically opposite holes is 98 mm.
- Hole diameter - 12.5 mm. This is an important parameter, since the bolts will dangle in large holes, and will not fit into smaller holes.
- The diameter of the inner hole of the disc corresponds to the diameter of the hub - 58.5 mm. It is with its help, and not with bolts, that the disc is centered. Therefore, discs with a smaller hole will not fit on the machine, with a larger one - they will require the installation of an additional centering ring.
When choosing the optimal size of wheels, you can use the selection service, which is available on many sites of online stores of tires and wheels.
Installation of light alloy wheels on the VAZ 2107
Light-alloy wheels are installed in the same way as stamped ones. Difficulties can arise if the diameter or overhang of the disc is very different from the standard. In this case, you will have to change the shape of the wheel arches and fenders so that the wheel does not overwrite when turning or while driving. Such alterations are very time-consuming and expensive, so you should think about it before deciding to install non-standard disks on the VAZ 2107.
It is not at all difficult to change standard wheels for other, more reliable, functional, or beautiful ones. It is only important to know by what criteria to select them, as well as to understand how such tuning can affect the chassis of the car, the safety of its driver and passengers.
Wheel disks
The wheel disks of the car are part of its suspension. Like any other detail, they have their own purpose.
Why do you need disks
Wheels perform several functions at once:
- transmit torque from hubs or axle shafts to tires;
- provide uniform distribution and compaction of tires around the circumference of their landing;
- contribute to their correct position relative to the car body and its suspension.
Types of rims
Today there are two types of rims for car wheels: stamped and cast. The former are made of steel, the latter are made of alloys of light but strong metals.
Stamped discs
Each type of wheel rim has its own advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of stamped ones include:
- low cost;
- reliability;
- absolute maintainability.
In order to buy the usual "stamping", it is enough to go to any car shop, or to the market. A huge selection, low prices, constant availability on sale - this is what an undemanding car owner needs.
There is often no need to buy steel wheels, because they are practically eternal. Breaking them is almost impossible. The main malfunction of such disks is deformation due to a wheel falling into a pit, hitting a curb, etc. However, this problem is solved by rolling on a special machine, and at home - by leveling with a hammer.
As for the shortcomings, there are fewer of them. Basically, motorists note the lack of aesthetics and individuality, as well as a large weight, which affects fuel consumption. As for the appearance, indeed, the "stamping" does not differ in design or attractiveness. They are all the same. But a lot of weight is a moot point, since it was taken into account when developing the car, therefore, the characteristics of the engine are designed for it.
Alloy wheels
Light-alloy wheels, first of all, give the car its individuality. With them, the car becomes more beautiful and looks more modern. It is this factor that most of all influences the result of the choice between "stamping" and "casting".
In most cases, when car owners buy light-alloy wheels, they do not even suspect that such products do not bend in the event of a critical load, like steel ones, but split. Then, of course, you can restore them using argon welding or other technologies, but it will no longer be possible to return them to their initial technical characteristics.

The main parameters of rims on the VAZ 2107
Each detail of any mechanism has its own characteristics and parameters, according to which it is actually selected. Disks are no exception. These parameters include:
Disc diameter
Diameter is the main parameter that determines the ability to install a wheel on a particular car. The standard VAZ 2107 wheels have a diameter of 13 inches.
Naturally, the larger the wheels, the better the car looks. Moreover, with larger discs, the car better "swallows" small holes and potholes. On the "seven" you can install wheels no larger than 14 inches, without changing tires, and without altering the chassis.
Disc width
The width of the disc, or rather its rim, characterizes the width of the tire that can be used with it. The nominal width of the "7" disc is 5 ", but parts up to 6" wide can be installed.
The diameter and width together determine the size of the disc. In the marking, it is designated as follows: 13x5, 14x5, 15x5.5 or vice versa: 5x13, 5.5x14, etc.
Departure disk
Departure is probably the most difficult characteristic to understand. It determines the distance from the plane of the mating of the part with the hub to the conditional plane dividing the rim of the disc in half. Depending on the model, the discs can have both positive and negative overhangs. In the first case, the attachment plane of the part does not cross the boundary of the conditional, which divides it into two equal halves. Looking at a car equipped with disks with a positive offset, it will seem to you that the wheels of the car are, as it were, recessed into the arches. With a negative offset, on the contrary, the mating plane is displaced to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle itself, and the disk "sticks out" outward.
The overhang of the standard "seven" disc is + 29 mm. However, this parameter provides a standard deviation in one direction or another, equal to 5 mm. In other words, discs with an offset from + 24 to + 34 mm are suitable for the VAZ 2107. The overhang is measured in millimeters and is indicated on the marking as follows: ET 29, ET 30, ET 33, etc.
The change in the departure value of the "sevens", most often in the negative direction, is used in order to give the car's appearance a sporty style and aggressiveness. But here it is also important not to overdo it. The fact is that when the departure value changes in one direction or another, the distance between the wheel attachment point to the suspension and the fulcrum on the road surface also changes. And the more the standard distance is changed, the more load the wheel bearing will be subjected to. In addition, the changes will affect the handling of the car, and this is already unsafe.
Read about repairing the front and rear hubs of the VAZ 2107:
Center hole diameter
Any rim is designed for a certain size of the hub, or rather, its centering flange. It is on it that the disc is mounted with its centering hole. The "sevens" discs have a central hole 58.5 mm in diameter. This is referred to in the standard marking as "DIA 58.5". No deviations are allowed here, but some tuning lovers manage to put discs with a smaller hole diameter on the VAZ 2107, boring it, or larger, using special centering rings.
Looseness
A parameter such as bolt pattern indicates the number of holes for mounting the disc and the diameter of the circle along which they are located. The factory wheel rim "seven" has four holes for the mounting bolts. They are located on one circle with a diameter of 98 mm. On the marking, the bolt pattern is designated as follows: "LZ / PCD 4x98".
As you understand, it just won't work to install discs with a different bolt pattern on a VAZ 2107, especially if its values differ not only in the size of the circle, but also in the number of holes. However, there is a way out, and more than one. The first option is to use special spacers between the disc and the hub. These spacers have two bolts: one standard for mounting to the hub, and the other for mounting the disc. The second option is suitable only for discs with the same number of bolts and a slight deviation from the diameter of the circle on which they are located. During installation, of course, there will be problems with tightening the bolts in the final stage. It will not be possible to fully tighten them, because of which the wheel will dangle in motion. But this problem can be solved using special bolts with an offset center. They can either be bought or ordered from a familiar turner.
Drilling
Such a parameter as drilling is necessary so that the car owner, when buying discs, is not mistaken with the size of the mounting holes. If they are larger than the diameter of the bolts, the disc will not sit tightly and will begin to wobble over time. If they are smaller, the bolts simply will not fit into the holes. The diameter of the holes for the fastening bolts in the standard "seven" disks is 12.5 mm. For fixing, bolts of the M12x1.25 type are used.
What cars are suitable for VAZ 2107 wheels
Unfortunately, there are very few cars with the same parameters of disks with the "seven". VAZ 2107, in this sense, is almost unique. And it's not at all about their diameter, width, or overhang. Everything rests on the bolt pattern and the size of the hub hole.

As for domestic cars, standard alloy wheels from VAZ 2112, VAZ 2170 can be installed on the "seven" without alterations. They have similar parameters.
But you don't have to waste time looking for suitable stock discs. Today, you can freely buy discs of various designs, made of various alloys. The cost of a set of good "wheels" for a VAZ 2107, depending on the characteristics and manufacturer, varies from 10 to 40 thousand rubles. Not cheap, of course, but beautiful.
Is it realistic to install sixteen-inch wheels on the VAZ 2107
Probably everyone who has seen a "seven" on sixteen and even seventeen-inch disks was very interested in how they got there. In fact, everything is simple. In some cases, the owners of such cars do not even digest the arches. It's all about the height of the tire, which is expressed as a percentage of the height of the section to its width. And if for a stock tire it is 70%, then in order to put fifteen-inch wheels on the "seven", they need to wear rubber with a height of 40-50%.
To install sixteen- and seventeen-inch disks, it is better to raise the car a little due to special spacers for shock absorbers, or to increase the size of the arches by cutting them out. As for the height of the tire profile, it is better if it will be no more than 25%.

Tires for VAZ 2107
The safety of the driver of the car and his passengers even more depends on the characteristics and condition of the tires of the car. Their choice must be approached very carefully, and in no case save.
Types of tires for seasonal use
According to seasonal use, tires are classified into:
- winter;
- summer;
- all-season.
The former are made of soft rubber and have a special tread. At the same time, each of the manufacturers is trying to increase the tread area, because the larger it is, the better the tire will behave on a winter road.
Summer tires are coarser, and their tread pattern is designed more for better grip on wet surfaces and water drainage from the plane of contact between the tire and the road.
All-season tires are a generalized version of the first two types. If the “all-season” is really of high quality, then in winter it does its job normally, but in summer it loses significantly to summer tires in terms of the quality of grip on wet surfaces.
Parameters of tires VAZ 2107
Like wheels, car tires have their own parameters. These include:
- profile width (width of the tire itself, measured in millimeters);
- height (expressed as a percentage of the profile height to width, measured as a percentage);
- fit diameter (defines the inner diameter of the tire, measured in inches);
- carrying capacity (indicates the maximum load on one tire, measured in kgf);
- the value of the permissible speed (indicates the calculated maximum permissible speed, measured in km / h).
From the conveyor of the VAZ 2107 plant, they go “shod” in thirteen-inch radial tires with a profile width of 175 or 165 mm and a height of 70%. Standard tires are designed for 190 km / h and a single wheel load not exceeding 470 kgf.
It is impossible not to mention the pressure in the tires, because the cross-country ability of the car, and its driving performance, and fuel consumption depend on it. The manufacturing plant VAZ 2107 recommends observing the following pressure indicators.
The choice between beauty and functionality of the wheels should be based on how you use the vehicle. If it is intended for city car walks, or participates in exhibitions of tuned cars, holiday corteges, then alloy wheels and low-profile tires are ideal. If the car is used every day in our off-road conditions for work, then it is better to install “stamping” on it with standard tires.
Wheel functions
Stamped discs
Alloy wheels
7vaz.ru
Wheels are always of great interest. Stamped ones can always be bought at any car dealership. Their reliability and durability have been tested by time. However, one has only to slightly change the appearance of the car, and you no longer want to go back to such models. There is a desire to install alloy wheels for the VAZ 2107. They have a positive effect on fuel consumption, make the trip more comfortable and safe.
Wheel rim functionality
In front-wheel drive cars, the disc is used to transfer revolutions to the drive pair. The tire sits tightly on it. The front suspension is stiffer thanks to the correct positioning of the tire.
Wheels for a VAZ 2107 car are available in several versions. They differ in certain parameters:
- Width.
- Diameter.
- Mass.
- The number of mounting holes.
It is allowed to install R13, R14 disks on any VAZ 2107 car. According to the production method, it can be either stamping or casting.
Newbies always ask the question, which disks are better to put on the seven? You won't be able to answer it in one phrase. Each species has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Stamped
Main advantages:
- Low cost.
- Unpretentiousness.
- Excellent wear resistance.
- Plastic.
Stamping, falling into a hole, does not break or crack, only crumples. You can correct the dent with a regular hammer.
The main disadvantage, perhaps, can be called a large mass. Because of this, the car accelerates for a long time, it has a lot of inertia, and the braking distance increases. All these qualities affect the handling of the car and increase fuel consumption.
If you looked at the stamped wheels on the VAZ 2107 from the point of view of aesthetics, you will notice that they all look the same. Factory coating is usually of poor quality, so paint quickly begins to fly off and the surface becomes rusty. So that the stamping does not make noise, does not corrode with salt, it must be constantly washed.
Cast
Today, cast products are considered the best disks for the VAZ 2107. They have recently come into vogue and quickly gained a lot of popularity. Light alloys are used for their production, so they weigh 30% less than stamped counterparts.
Light-alloy wheels are highly durable, they almost never rust. In addition, there are many differences in their appearance. Designers are engaged in the aesthetics of the product, giving it an original look.
If we look at the cast models from the point of view of functionality, certain advantages immediately become noticeable:
- Fast acceleration.
- Soft movement,
- Reduced fuel consumption.
For all its advantages, alloy wheels are not devoid of negative qualities. After a strong blow, for example, when flying into a deep hole, it will not crumple, but simply burst. Such parts cannot be repaired.
The cost of cast structures is always higher than ordinary stamping, and the service life is much shorter. Any impact is transmitted to the suspension, since alloy wheels cannot absorb external influences by their own deformation. Which wheels to put on the VAZ 2107, each driver decides on an individual basis, taking into account future operating conditions.
When choosing, it is very important to consider the model of the car. For example, discs for low-profile tires are not suitable for summer residents; heavy structures will increase fuel consumption.
Wheel sizes VAZ 2107
Four fastening bolts are used to fasten the products. The holes for them are located in a circle with a diameter of 98 millimeters. For the bolts, holes are drilled with a diameter of 12.5 millimeters.
In order for the disc to fit freely on the hub, a central hole with a diameter of 58.5 millimeters is made in it. It is along this hole that its orientation takes place. The bolts only press the flange against it.
When installing an alloy wheel, you may need to use an adapter ring. Sometimes, without such an additional detail, it is impossible to create an exact alignment of the hub and the surface of the disc. The ring can be freely purchased at any car dealership.
The take-out, or overhang of the disk on the VAZ 2107 is usually 29 millimeters. This term refers to the distance formed between the interface surface of the disc after installation on the hub, with a conventional plane passing through the center of the disc rim.
That is, when the takeaway is positive, it seems that the element has gone deep into the arch. With a negative value, it seems to come out of the arch, it seems that it is too deeply recessed in the seat.
Experts advise to fly within normal limits. If the overhang is too great, the wheel may start touching the wheel arch liners. It is allowed to withstand a deviation of 5 millimeters in any direction. In other words, on a VAZ 2107, the departure can be in the range of +24 - +34 millimeters.
Moreover, this parameter is designed only for a specific disk width. To fit a wider model, you need to sustain a shorter overhang.
Car-Fix - a set for removing car dents. The unique patented shape of the clip eliminates additional damage, and the adhesive can be easily removed after the dents are removed.

The size of tires and rims, or how to understand the markings. Disc size for VAZ 2107
cast, stamped (photo and video)
It is safe to say that wheel disks have always been a "stumbling block" for many owners. On the one hand, stamped standard discs are quite cheap, unpretentious and durable, the required size of discs is always on sale, both R13 and R14, you can buy even without leaving the regional center.
But if you somehow change the appearance of the car, repaint the body, carry out minimal tuning - and the desire to "put the casting" grows exponentially. In addition to beauty, fuel economy, alloy wheels allow the owner to make a serious argument in favor of choosing the VAZ 2107 and even boast a little to the audience: they say, “I could have bought a foreign car for a long time, but as a patriot, you know, I installed the central locking, casting, and I continue to respect our auto industry ".
So, about the wheels in order.
Wheel functions
- The discs transmit the torque to the tire of the drive pair.
- Discs contribute to uniform tire compaction along its entire circumference, or around the perimeter.
- The disc ensures the correct position of the tire in the suspension, providing all the rigidity of the structure.
Discs are different, both in width and in diameter, (R 13, R 14, for the classics) by weight, by the number of holes for fasteners.
First of all, according to the production method, disks are stamped and cast. And the first question of a beginner "what disks to install" implies exactly the answer to this question. It's not that simple. Let's figure out why.
Stamped discs
Their advantages are unpretentiousness, low cost, high wear resistance, and plasticity. This means that if it falls into a hole, the disc can be crushed, but not split or broken. And a bent disc can be easily straightened even with an ordinary hammer. Stamped discs are so cheap that cars don't wear them at night.
As for the disadvantages, the most important is the large weight, which affects acceleration, braking and inertia. The result is deterioration in handling and higher fuel consumption. In addition, from a purely aesthetic point of view, all cars have one face. Rust can also be a disadvantage, as factory paint is usually short-lived. Also, the stamping should be well washed in spring and autumn, in order to avoid unnecessary noise and corrosion with salt.
Alloy wheels
Casting is fashionable, cool, modern. In addition, such discs can be 20-30% lighter than stamped ones, because they are made from an alloy of light metals, they are less susceptible to corrosion and are more durable. The low pressure casting technology itself increases the strength of the products.
Externally, alloy wheels have an individual look, there are design bureaus that produce new shapes and follow fashion.
Functionally, the ride on alloy wheels is smoother, acceleration is improved, and fuel consumption is lower.
But there is also a “flip side of the coin”. The disadvantage of alloy wheels is the continuation of their merits. That is, when it enters the pit, the cast disc does not wrinkle like a stamped one. But under a supercritical load, it simply bursts, splits - and its place is in the alloy processing workshop, or in the trash heap.
It's all to blame for the fragility of the disc. In addition, the casting price is higher and the service life is shorter. An important disadvantage is the transmission of all shocks to the suspension, since the disc is not able to damp them using its own deformation. Therefore, before deciding which wheels to install, decide where and why you will drive the car.
When choosing a wheel, the most important thing should be their compliance with the car model. So, installing discs under a low profile will not suit summer residents, and installing heavy and durable discs will not save on fuel consumption. If you overshot in the choice of the size, then the wheel on the bends can "shuffle" the wheel arch liners, or, which is quite a shame, cannot be installed at all.
What quantitative parameters do standard wheels for the classic VAZ 2107 have?
- Holes for mounting bolts - 4, the diameter of the circle (more precisely, the diameter of the circle on which the holes are located - 98mm. Sometimes it is denoted as (LZ * PCD): 4 * 98. This means that between two diametrically opposite holes 98mm.
- Drilling for bolts is characterized not only by the size between the holes, but also by the diameter of the holes themselves. In the case of the VAZ 2107, this is 12.5 mm. Hole drilling is a parameter that is not immediately noticed, as always, first admiring the "size". And in vain. It should be remembered that the disc manufacturer is obliged to very accurately calculate the fixation of the wheel to the hub, since the minimum misalignment of the centers of the disc and the hub causes dangerous beats that can eventually tear the wheel off. Drilling must be done with an accuracy of tenths of a millimeter.
- The disc is designed for a hub with a center hole diameter of 58.5 mm. The size of the hub is indicated as follows: (DIA 58.5) The fact is that ordinary and solid-looking wheel bolts do not center the wheel to the hub at all, as mentioned above. They just hold the flange and disc tightly together. It is the central hole in the disc that helps to correctly orient the disc, and therefore the wheel relative to the hub. If you decide to purchase discs made of light alloys, then remember that you may need to use an adapter ring for accurate alignment, which are sold quite freely in large stores.
- The diameter of the discs for the VAZ 2107 should be within 13-15 inches, and they are designated as R 13-R The standard size is 13 inches. This dimension refers to the diameter of the rim of the disc.
- The width of the disc (more precisely, the width of the rim of the disc) in inches for the VAZ 2107 ranges from 5 to 6 inches. Few people pay attention to this parameter, since they first of all look at the diameter. But it is precisely the width that affects the stability of the entire tire, and therefore reliability.
A more complete marking thus looks like 5x13, or 5.5x13.
- The wheel overhang is 15 to 30 mm. Let's talk about this parameter in more detail, since its meaning is not explained everywhere. Strictly speaking, the overhang is the distance between the mating plane on the disc when the disc is placed to the hub and a special, conditional plane that runs along the very middle of the rim on the disc.
Simply put, if the offset is positive, it will seem that the disk is immersed, or "sunk" into the arch.
If the offset is negative, then it will seem that the disc itself is protruding from the wheel arch, and the seat of the disc itself is recessed deep enough.
For all VAZ classics, the standard overhang is +29 mm.
If you do not know which offset to buy, then Lenin's rule "better less, but better" is perfect here, since if the offset is too large, the wheel can rest against the wheel arch liners, despite the correctly selected radius. The standard deviation is about 5 mm or the other side, so for the VAZ 2107 it will be from +24 to +34 mm. At the same time, it must be remembered that this parameter works only for a certain width of the disc, if you want to put wide discs, then you need a smaller overhang and vice versa.
- The bolts for fastening the wheel must be M12 with a diameter of 1.25 mm. The standard drill is designed for this size.
- If you install a larger R 14 wheel instead of the standard R 13, you will have to install a lower profile of tires, such as 55-60 mm, because the tire will have "less space". The following photo can serve as the limit of love for a low profile. Before deciding on such a bold act, you need to understand that leaving the center of a large city is categorically contraindicated for such a car.
In conclusion, I would like to say that a compromise can be winter tires for stamping, and a summer kit for casting, for beauty lovers. And for those who like the benefits - on the contrary, since in winter fuel consumption is higher, and the chance of getting into a hole is less than in summer. In addition, fewer people leave the city in winter, and the roads there are smoother than in summer.

The point is that tires and rims have a significant impact on most of the basic performance characteristics of a vehicle. In addition, one cannot fail to note the importance of tires and rims as active safety elements. That is why it is extremely important to approach their selection very responsibly, using for this reason enough specific knowledge about these products. Unfortunately, or, on the contrary, fortunately, a significant part of motorists prefer not to study the technical device of their own car thoroughly. In this case, a fully automatic selection system is almost the only way to avoid the wrong choice when buying tires and rims. And it is very wide, due to the variety of such products presented in the Mosavtoshin online store. |

Humping rings are rings along the rims of a tubeless rim. The main purpose of the humps is to reliably fix the tire bead in corners to prevent wheel depressurization. Humping can be regular (denoted by "H") and truncated (denoted by "X"). If there are no humps on the wheel rim, the installation of tubeless rubber is not recommended and can be life-threatening.

Wheels for VAZ 2107, selection and installation of light-alloy wheels (Video)
The choice of disks for the VAZ 2107 has always been the subject of a dispute between car owners. Stamped discs are cheap, durable, unpretentious and available at any car dealership. But it is worth trying to improve the appearance of the car, the first thing you want to do is to install cast or other light-alloy wheels on the VAZ 2107.
Therefore, the question of choosing disks is worthy of detailed consideration.
Wheels for VAZ 2107
Wheels, light-alloy (cast, forged, assembled) or stamped, perform the same functions:
- transmission of torque to the tires of the driving wheels;
- ensuring uniform tire compaction around the circumference;
- ensuring the rigidity of the structure and the correct location of the tires in the suspension.
On the "classic" light-alloy and stamped 13-inch wheels with four mounting bolts are used. As a tuning, 14-inch wheels can be installed.
Benefits of stamped discs:
The disadvantage of stamped discs is a lot of weight. The greater the unsprung mass, the faster the suspension degrades and the worse the handling on bad roads. In this regard, stamped wheels are much inferior to light-alloy wheels. The second drawback is susceptibility to corrosion, which is why they must be periodically cleaned and tinted.
The advantages of light alloy wheels:
Disadvantages of alloy wheels on the VAZ 2107:
- A fragile material that does not bend, but shatters when hit hard. If the disc does not crack after a strong impact, it still does not bend. Therefore, rubber on light-alloy wheels has a much higher chance of damage if it falls into a pit.
- Shorter service life than stamped steel discs.
- High price and attractiveness to thieves.
The high price of alloy wheels makes you take a responsible attitude to their selection.
Types of alloy wheels
According to the production method, light-alloy wheels are divided into three types:
- Cast - made by casting from an alloy on an aluminum or magnesium base. The latter option is more expensive. The physical characteristics of alloy wheels differ depending on the alloy used. Accordingly, the price differs. The weight of alloy wheels is one third less than that of steel. They look better, but the high brittleness of the material often causes chips when hitting the edge of a burly pit.
- Forged differs from cast production technology. Hot stamping allows for lighter weight and greater strength than casting. Also, such discs are less fragile, which increases their durability. The impact force for deformation of a forged disc is much greater than for a steel one. Therefore, with strong impacts, more loads are placed on the car's suspension.
- Prefabricated, assembled from spirit-three parts with bolts. Parts of the collecting disc are manufactured using different technologies. For example, the rim is forged, the disc is cast. This approach reduces disk weight and increases maintainability. Assembled discs can be 2-3 times lighter than cast discs. When choosing a collecting disc, you should pay attention to the material of the bolts. They must be titanium. Steel bolts are susceptible to corrosion, which degrades the appearance and performance of the disc.
Selection of alloy wheels
Wheels on the VAZ 2107 must correspond to the predominant use of the car. Low profile discs are not suitable for driving on bad roads; if you need good handling at high speed, a high profile will not be the best choice.
The main thing is the compliance of the geometric dimensions of the disks with the parameters of the car.
- The nominal size of the VAZ "classic" disk is 13 inches. Alloy wheels can be fitted in 13, 14 and 15 inches. But it should be noted that with a larger disc diameter, a lower tire profile should be used. Otherwise, the wheel will rub or will not fit into the wheel arch at all. Consider. That low-profile tires will be especially easy to damage when hitting a pothole in the asphalt.
- Rims that are too wide (over 30 mm overhang) will provide better grip, but the tire edges constantly protruding from the mud flaps will cause severe contamination of the sides of the car. Also, a wide wheel can touch the wheel arch liners.
- The standard VAZ wheels have four holes for the mounting bolts. The diameter of the circle on which they are placed is 98 mm. In other words, the distance between a pair of diametrically opposite holes is 98 mm.
- Hole diameter - 12.5 mm. This is an important parameter, since the bolts will dangle in large holes, and will not fit into smaller holes.
- The diameter of the inner hole of the disc corresponds to the diameter of the hub - 58.5 mm. It is with its help, and not with bolts, that the disc is centered. Therefore, discs with a smaller hole will not fit on the machine, with a larger one - they will require the installation of an additional centering ring.
When choosing the optimal size of wheels, you can use the selection service, which is available on many sites of online stores of tires and wheels.
Installation of light alloy wheels on the VAZ 2107
Light-alloy wheels are installed in the same way as stamped ones. Difficulties can arise if the diameter or overhang of the disc is very different from the standard. In this case, you will have to change the shape of the wheel arches and fenders so that the wheel does not overwrite when turning or while driving. Such alterations are very time-consuming and expensive, so you should think about it before deciding to install non-standard disks on the VAZ 2107.

Tuning is a great way to improve the look of your car. Moreover, if the most expensive car is suitable for expensive models, then for such as VAZ 2107 you need to choose something cheaper. Tuning on a car that costs exactly the same as the cost of tuning it will look pretty ridiculous. That is why the owners of modest VAZs prefer a cheap tuning option - replacing standard disks with alloy ones.
They distinguish the car from others and at the same time do not require large expenses. In addition, such tuning can be done independently.
The choice for the VAZ 2107 should be taken quite seriously, because by changing the wheels, not only the appearance of the car will change, but also its driving characteristics. The diameter of alloy wheels should not be too large, here the best option is R13 and R14, in extreme cases R15, but no more. For a larger diameter, it will be necessary to modify the car's fenders and its suspension, and this requires certain financial costs. In addition, the consumption of gasoline with huge disks will be an order of magnitude higher than usual. Another criterion for choosing and installing alloy disks on a VAZ 2107 is their width of departure. The wider the width, the sooner the vehicle's suspension and bearings will fail. In addition, if the width is too large, the outer side of the wheel will protrude beyond the mudguard, which means that dirt will get from the wheels to the outside of the car. The most optimal overhang width ranges between 33 and 35 millimeters.
In addition, the more standard the configuration of an alloy wheel, the easier it is to choose tires for it. A very important criterion when choosing a wheel is how much is required to mount the wheel and at what distance you need to mount them. Each cast wheel for the VAZ 2107 has its own specific configuration. For example, PSD 4x98 means that 4 bolts are required to install the tire and they need to be located at a diameter of 98 millimeters. In addition, you should buy extended bolts, as old bolts from standard VAZ wheels may be short.
