We first need to know your location.
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.

section 4.2.4 pretty much puts things into context. 15mm bigger dia or 26mm smaller is what's allowed.
madness is in the eye of the beholder 👍

Depends where you live. NSW is 15mm smaller.

These are state regulations, the federal standards are only guidelines and are not compulsary.

Regs. vary state to state. However, section 4.2.4 of this doco. deals with *tyre* diameter, not *wheel* diameter. A "+2" fitment (i.e. 2" larger wheel diameter with lower profile tyres is, I believe, acceptable in Vic. provided tyre diameter is maintained within these limits.psimitar wrote:section 4.2.4 pretty much puts things into context. 15mm bigger dia or 26mm smaller is what's allowed.

Depends on the year model of the car. Older cars don't need to comply to a lot of the adrs.

Yes overall tyre diameter not the rim/wheel itself. If anyone reads the article then that should be pretty self explanatory 🙂modulus wrote:Regs. vary state to state.
