Tyres From Standard Wheels Fit Turbine Spoke Alloys?

[+Steve]

My missus just bought one of these.. great stuff!

She has the horrid steel wheels, can anyone tell me what tyres fit on the turbine alloys?

will the tyres from the steel wheels fit the turbine alloys?

cheers

What wheels do you mean by turbine? The 8-spoke Antibes???

These have the exact same measurements as the stock steels do, so the

155/65R14's will fit just fine and will have a negligable effect in fuel economy...

If it's something else; sorry, don't know...

Yes thats the ones.

Thats good news. cheers

hmm according to toyota website They are called turbine alloys.

does anyone know how much these are from the dealers?

I got a price list printed out before christmas of all the accessories you can get for the Aygo and there are 2 alloys listed: 'Alloy wheel' and 'Ateles alloy wheel 14"'

Alloy wheel: £90 each inc vat (4 = £360)

Ateles alloy wheel 14": £114 inc vat (4 = £456)

None of the prices include fitment so they may charge aswell to balance etc.

If you arent overly amazed with the standard alloys then it might be cheaper for you to get a set of alloys (with tyres aswell) off the net or Halfords etc.

Might just be a difference in name between countries; you have to remember I'm in The Netherlands.

Even the colors are named different, even though the color codes are the same...

Lagoon Blue vs. Reflective Blue and Tempest Black vs. Midnight Black to name two...
