Does this swap, 13s for 12s, not mess up the speedo? Surely the rolling radius changes.



i have no idea! :lol:

no cus the 12" tyres have a different ratio so the rolling radius should still be the same

175/50/13

165/60/12

something like that anyway :0)

Correct me if im wrong but are the deep dish ones 12's anyway, the dish and wheel itself look smaller than 13, whats the tyre size? Look like deep dish 6x12's

+1 I also think those are deep dish 12's. Better check the tire size just to be sure.

And as for you options, I'd keep the deep dish silver wheeels. An over arched wheel doesn't look too good.

Looking at the photo of the wheel, you can see the tyre size is 185/60 R13 :D

Correct. The change in diameter from 13" to 12" is very minor.

Not so minor changing from 10" to 12"/13", though.

Rolling circumferences:

* 165/70/10: 152.4cm
* 145/70/12: 159,5cm
* 165/60/12: 158cm
* 175/50/13: 158,7cm
* 195/45/13: 158.9cm

:D
