Characteristics of standard Lada Vesta wheels
The standard characteristics of the wheels, which are produced at AvtoVAZ and come with the Vesta, are very similar to the sizes of other Lada cars. However, installing them is not recommended.
Standard parameters of disks 185/65/R15 88 N. Explanation:
- Wheel width – 185 mm;
- Wheel profile – 120.25mm;
- Disc radius – 15;
- 88 is a number indicating the carrying capacity, which is equal to 560 kg;
- Speed index – H (210 km/h)
These characteristics are installed on the standard equipment of the car.
Standard wheels
A car wheel consists of a disk and a tire, which have individual characteristics.
The AvtoVAZ concern indicates the standard tire size for the Lada Vesta car in the basic configuration - 185/65/R15 88 N (the manufacturer allows the use of T). It means:
- width – 185 mm;
- profile – 65% of 185 mm (120.25 mm);
- The tire must be mounted on a rim with a diameter of 15 inches;
- 88 – load capacity index 560 kg;
- H – speed index, up to 210 km/h (for T – up to 190 km/h).
Such tires under the name ArtMotion for AvtoVAZ are manufactured at Belshina OJSC; the products are characterized by moderate softness and good rubber wear resistance, low noise and excellent road holding. Belshina OJSC also produces tires with identical characteristics in a winter version - the ArtMotion Snow model.
In the basic configurations of the Lada Vesta, these tires are mounted on stamped steel rims of size 6J 15 ET 50 4x100 60.1 (as an option - light alloy models of the same dimensions ANNA-15 from the manufacturer K&K), which means:
- 6J – disk rim width (6 inches);
- 15 – mounting diameter in inches;
- ET 50 – offset 50 mm;
- 4x100 (PCD, bolt pattern) – the disk is secured with 4 bolts located around a circle with a diameter of 100 mm;
- 60.1(DIA) – size of the central (hub) hole.
For top-end configurations of Lada Vesta, the factory installs wheels with dimensions 195/55 R16 91 N (T allowed):
- width – 195 mm;
- profile height – 107.25 mm (55% of 195);
- R16 (mounting diameter of the disk) – 16 inches;
- 91 (load capacity index) – 615 kg;
- H (speed index) - up to 210 km/h (T is allowed - up to 190 km/h).
These EcoContact tires are supplied to AvtoVAZ by the German company Continental. They are mounted on light alloy wheels of the K&K company model Ptalomey-16 with dimensions 6Jx16 ET50 4x100 60.1, the geometric characteristics of which differ only in the mounting diameter - 16 inches.
For basic versions of Lada Vesta, installation of wheels of these dimensions on K&K alloy wheels is also possible as an additional option.
In the Luxe configuration of the Lada Vesta, for an additional fee, it is possible to install wheels even with 17-inch rims of the same model - Ptalomey-17.
New Lada: Rewind, twist the mileage of Lada Vesta
For clarity, let’s summarize the correspondence between the sizes of tires and wheels of the Lada Vesta in a table.
Characteristics of standard Lada Vesta Cross wheels
Despite the fact that many people are not satisfied with the wheel design, it is very practical and does not catch the eye. The choice of such discs is not a decision of one person, but of a team of specialists. The model is presented in a neutral form without a complex structure. The wheels do not stand out from the crowd of cars. Standard wheels on Lada Vesta Cross have the following characteristics:
- Radius R17;
- Drilling 4×100;
- The diameter of the central hole is 60.10;
- Fasteners (Bolt 12*1.5);
- Disc width 6.5J x 17;
- Departure ET41;
The characteristics described above differ from other older AvtoVAZ car models. This is due to the fact that a large number of foreigners come to drive the company and implement technologies developed at the Nissan plant.
How to choose stamped products
Wheel rims produced by stamping are among the most common for Vesta, installed at the factory. This is due to the low cost of production, since the material is ordinary steel.
When it comes to design, these wheels are the least attractive. Very often, car owners cover them with plastic caps to give the car a more attractive appearance.
All products produced by stamping are similar. They differ only in size and bolt pattern parameters. They may have different diameters of holes for the hubs. For Vesta, it is recommended to purchase such models with a radius of 15 inches. This is the most optimal size for this car, as it does not degrade factory characteristics.
However, they have many positive aspects:
- Greater strength compared to casting and forging.
- Better shock tolerance.
- Lower cost.
- More convenient and cheaper repairs.
The basic Lada Vesta has factory-installed wheels with a radius of R15 with tires that have the characteristics of 175/70 R15. Drilling or bolting parameters are the same for all types of products, both stamped and cast.

Why you should look for alternative options
Many car enthusiasts have problems when purchasing winter tires and wheels. AvtoVAZ installed a “non-standard” wheel with a 43 offset in its cross-country model.
If you replace it, the warranty on the car will expire. However, replacing an official wheel costs about 8 thousand rubles. Labor to replace the wheel may add to the cost.
Without listening to manufacturers, car owners install wheels with a 15 and 16 inch radius on their cars, since official wheels cost 2-3 times more.
Let's summarize all of the above
- If you do not drive at very high speeds, are limited in money and the roads in your city are not of very high quality, feel free to purchase steel wheels for the VAZ Vesta SW Cross (but together with decorative caps).
- If the “appearance” of a car is of paramount importance to you and high-speed driving is not alien to you, then it is best to purchase alloy wheels. But you must be prepared for the fact that they may burst - then you will need to buy new ones, because alloy wheels cannot be repaired.
- If you are a fan of sporty driving and high speeds, then only forged wheels on the VAZ Vesta SW Cross will be the optimal solution for you. Their unique properties will allow them to be used for a very long time even under intense loads, because it is almost impossible to disable them. But the very high price of such wheels is the only drawback that prevents everyone from buying them.
What tires does AvtoVAZ recommend installing according to operating rules?
Each car manufacturer will force owners to use only those sizes that are specified in the operating rules. Based on these dimensions, the car can be considered safe on the road.
Using these characteristics, the machine underwent certification and safety tests. The manufacturer is not responsible for changing wheels.

Options
If replacement is necessary, you must carefully select the size, since the increased diameter of the product may touch the arch when turning. In this case, the rule applies - when increasing the size of the disk, it is necessary to reduce the height of the tire profile. This will affect comfort. The car manufacturer allows the installation of tires that have the following parameters:
- 175/70 R15;
- 205/60 R15;
- 185/60 R16;
- 175/55 R17;
- 195/50 R17.
Wheel parameters
In this case, the letters and numbers mean the following:
- 6J - wheel rim width. In this case it is equal to six inches.
- Number 15 is the mounting diameter, measured in inches.
- ET 50 - disc offset is 50 mm.
- The drilling or bolting setting is designated as 4x100 or PCD. In this case, the product is secured with four bolts, which are located around a circle, diameter is 100 mm.
- 60.1 (DIA) - the diameter of the central hole for the hub, measured in millimeters.
Knowing all the above parameters, you can easily select wheels that will definitely fit.
What kind of disks can be installed?
The most common option for installing wheels are official wheels, which are produced at the AvtoVAZ plant. Their cost is 7,500 rubles.
The manufacturer also recommends using K&K Flanker discs as an alternative. By purchasing these models, the car owner will be able to save about 1000 - 2000 rubles. The following wheels are suitable for Vesta Cross:
- KS751;
- R74177
It is recommended to purchase these models only on the official website, where photos of the wheels are presented, or in official stores.

Good afternoon, dear comrade! I would like to address myself as a more experienced owner of a “tall red girl.” Winter is approaching and I also plan to buy an R15 casting for the winter. I bought winter tires 185/65/15. And here I got stuck... at the stage of selecting disks. So you bought the wheels, what are their exact parameters? R15, 4*100, DIA 60.1 right? What's the flight? The standard one is 41 or 43; it turned out that there are no such disks at all. those. The departure should be different, but acceptable? Which one do you have on these disks? BUT this is not the most important question, the most important is the width, what is the width of the rim for this tire and for this car? 6.5? + It turned out that the size of the disks smaller than R17 Vesta Cross is not provided for in the operating instructions, and violation of this paragraph may result in refusal of repairs under the chassis warranty. But this is a philosophical matter, I’m just interested in your opinion. + I have a question - in theory, on the West Cross, everything is the same as on the X-ray? those. Will any drive from X-ray fit like a native one on ours? I didn’t think that I would have so many difficulties when choosing a regular casting for a Russian car))
What can happen if you ignore the operating rules?
Despite the fact that the car manufacturer has approved only the above-mentioned wheels, online stores sell other models with similar characteristics and assure that they are suitable for the Lada Vesta St. Cross:
- 5 x 17 4*100 ET43 Dia60.1;
- 6 x 15 4*100 ET36 Dia60.1;
- 5 x 16 4*100 ET41 Dia60.1;
By neglecting the operating rules and installing wheels of other models, the owner risks getting into an accident or encountering other problems on the road. If official models have passed the manufacturer's full test, then other discs may behave completely unpredictably along the way.
Also, the owner of a car may receive a fine from a traffic police officer for having a product installed on his car that does not meet road safety rules. If the car does not meet factory requirements, the owner may be refused repairs to the wheels, chassis, transmission and suspension under warranty.
Review of winter tires for Lada Vesta SV Cross: Velcro and studs in various sizes
Let's analyze the reviews and conclusions of authoritative publications on popular winter tire models. We will take into account the standard size 205/50 R17 and 195/65 R15. We will make the gradation according to three parameters: the best options for asphalt, compacted snow, and slippery surfaces.
Tires with studs
First, let's look at the different options for studded tires. Data on prices and selected options are included in the table.
Tires | Cost in size 195/65 R15, rubles | Price in the amount of 205/50 R17, rubles |
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9 | 5 500 | 11 000 |
Nokian Nordman 5 | 3 000 | – |
Nokian Nordman 7 | – | 7 000 |
Continental ContiIceContact 2 | 4 800 | 10 600 |
Goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic | 3 500 | 7 300 |
Cordiant Snow Cross PW-2 | 2 800 | – |
Dunlop SP Winter Ice 02 | 3 000 | 6 200 |
Toyo Observe G3-Ice | 3 100 | 6 300 |
Gislaved Nord Frost 200 | 3 600 | 6 600 |
Kumho WinterCraft ice Wi31 | 3 000 | 5 400 |
Hankook Winter i*Pike RS | 3 200 | 6 100 |
Bridgestone Blizzak Spike-01 | 3 300 | 7 500 |
Pirelli Ice Zero | 3 800 | – |
Yokohama Ice Guard IG-55 | 3 200 | 6 700 |
Michelin X-Ice North 3 | 4 100 | 7 700 |
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9 and Continental ContiIceContact 2 won numerous tests. These two tires hold up well both in snow storms and on icy surfaces. Good performance on concrete as well. Comments addressed to both products are expressed only in terms of noise.
Polish winter tires Goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic for Vesta SV Cross, used both on country roads and on metropolitan roads, are also suitable. A previous comparison of winter tires revealed several negative aspects - noise and harshness. Tests found it vulnerable on slippery surfaces.
The Pirelli Ice Zero performs poorly on snow, while the Michelin X-Ice North 3 performs poorly on ice. Nokian Nordman 5, 7, Cordiant Snow Cross PW-2, Gislaved Nord Frost 200, Hankook Winter i*Pike RS, Toyo Observe G3-Ice, Kumho WinterCraft ice Wi31 demonstrate poor behavior on any type of asphalt. On other surfaces the tires behave decently – they are strong and average.
Dunlop SP Winter Ice 02, Bridgestone Blizzak Spike-01, Yokohama Ice Guard IG-55 are outsiders: they have unimportant characteristics on any type of winter substrate. The softest products are from Michelin. The toughest are Goodyear. High noise levels for:
- Nokian.
- Continental.
- Goodyear.
- Hankuk.
- Cordiant.
Velcro
Let's analyze non-studded models that satisfy the majority of consumers. Let's separate the products into a separate table with prices for different sizes.
Tires | Cost in size 195/65 R15, rubles | Price in the amount of 205/50 R17, rubles |
Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 | 4 700 | 9 500 |
Nokian Nordman RS2 | 3 000 | – |
Continental ContiViking Contact 6 | 4 800 | 8 200 |
Goodyear UlrtaGrip Ice 2 | 3 600 | 7 400 |
Cordiant Winter Drive PW-1 | 2 800 | – |
Dunlop Winter Maxx | 3 200 | 5 900 |
Toyo Observe GSi-5 | 3 200 | 6 400 |
Gislaved Soft Frost 200 | 3 400 | 6 600 |
Hankook Winter i*Cept IZ2 | 3 200 | 6 200 |
Kumho I'ZEN KW31 | 2 800 | 5 100 |
Bridgestone Blizzak VRX | 4 100 | 8 400 |
Pirelli Ice Zero FR | 3 800 | 7 200 |
Yokohama W.drive | 3 500 | 6 800 |
The leaders in the class are the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 and the Continental ContiVikingContact 6. They demonstrate excellent grip on icy layers and good maneuverability on snowy roads. They have acceptable performance on asphalt. The downside is the high noise level for such expensive tires.
Goodyear UlrtaGrip Ice 2 and Hankook Winter i*Cept IZ2 compete with the first place representatives. The decrease in positions is due to the presence of negative reviews about the smoothness and noise. The tread and rubber compound of the Nokian Nordman RS2 are time-tested. Many Vesta SV Cross owners recommend these winter tires for installation - the best combination of price and quality.
Pirelli Ice Zero FR tires are not stable enough on slippery roads and are a bit harsh. Toyo Observe GSi-5 and Gislaved Soft Frost 200 are bad on asphalt. However, Toyo is the quietest and softest. Kumho I'ZEN KW31, Bridgestone Blizzak VRX, Yokohama W.drive have the worst grip on ice and poor cross-country ability.
Why can’t you install disks of other models from a Russian manufacturer?
Since wheels of the Grant, Priora, and Kalina models are cheaper than Vesta, many car enthusiasts install them on their cars.
The discs will not fit tightly on the hub because the diameter of the hole for it is one and a half millimeters smaller. But if you squish it, then the bolt pattern, which is 4 by 98, and not 4 by 100, will play a role. Also, previous models only have 3 bolts, while the West has 4 fastening tools.
For these reasons, the wheels will begin to wobble, and a beating sound will appear when rotating. Since the disc will not match the size of the hub, the likelihood of the car skidding during normal turns increases.
Standard disk sizes
It is important to familiarize yourself with the parameters of the standard installed disks in advance. Today, regardless of body type, year of manufacture and other factors, it is necessary to use wheels with the following characteristics:
- diameter of the central hole, mm – 60.1;
- distance between individual holes, mm – 100.
The specified parameters are relevant for sedan, station wagon, and Cross cars. At the same time, the rim width differs slightly for these versions. For the sedan and station wagon, the width will be 6J in inches. At the same time, for the Cross version - 6 ½ J.
- for a station wagon – 50 mm;
- for Cross – 43 mm.
A standalone model is the version designated Sport. The diameter of the central hole, the distance between individual holes and other characteristics are the same. However, the offset may vary. Also, discs with 5 holes rather than 4 are required. It is important to select the right tires. This is the only way to avoid various problems during operation.
Tires that are the wrong size can create rub marks on the inside of the wheel arch. Wheels that are too heavy and oversized lead to increased wear and tear on the vehicle. As a result, a variety of problems may arise. For example, with wheel bearings, steering rack. Heavy alloy wheels make the steering more viscous and problematic.
What consequences await the owner if you install 18-inch wheels?
Theoretically, it is possible to install 18-inch wheels on the Lada Vesta Cross. But these changes will not allow the motorist to feel normal on the road.
The width of the tires is very different from the dimensions declared by the manufacturer, so if there are bumps and holes on the roads, the wheels will quickly fail. However, installing such disks has its advantages:
- Exterior design becomes more strict and expensive;
- Improved road stability and steering;
- When hitting bumps, the wheels dampen vibration;
- More gentle conditions for car suspension;
- The braking distance decreases;
Disadvantages when installing large wheels:
- You cannot drive in areas with bad roads;
- It is necessary to constantly monitor tire pressure;
- Increased fuel consumption, as energy consumption increases when starting the car;
- 18 inch wheels are more expensive;
- The dimensions do not correspond to the operating rules, so small irregularities cause damage to the wheel.
What does the size of tires and wheels affect?
Increasing disc diameter | Increasing rim width | Increasing tire width | |
Car style | will improve | will improve | will improve |
Road holding | will improve | will improve | will improve |
Steering precision | will improve | will improve | will improve |
Tire grip | Will not change | Will not change | will improve, but only on dry roads |
Resistance to hydroplaning | Will not change | Will not change | will get worse |
Comfort on rough roads | will get worse | Will not change | will improve |
Road noise | Will not change | Will not change | will intensify |
Gasoline consumption | Will not change | will increase | will increase |
Tire wear | Will not change | Will not change | will increase |
If you are going to buy winter tires for your Lada Vesta, then try to choose narrower tires.
These tires will create more pressure on the road surface and improve traction. Remember that wide tires are more sensitive to ruts in winter. And low-profile tires make the ride less comfortable, because... transfer even the smallest holes to the body. The smaller the unsprung mass (this includes the mass of tires and wheels), the better the car will hold the road and accelerate faster. For example, if you put wheels on a car that are 2 kg lighter each, then acceleration to 100 km/h will be reduced by 0.2 seconds.
Attention! Installing larger wheels may lead to problems with ABS and ESP calibration (the systems may not work correctly).

Lada Priora wheel bolt pattern
All front-wheel drive VAZ vehicles, including Kalina, Priora, Granta, 2113-14-15, are equipped with wheels with a 4x98 bolt pattern.
The wheels for all these models are interchangeable.
On most front-wheel drive VAZ (Lada) cars, including Kalina, Priora, Granta, trinashki, chepyrki, tags, wheels with a 4x98 bolt pattern are installed. If desired, you can install it with a 4x100 bolt pattern, but you will need a different type of bolt.
Wheels are an extremely important component in any car. The safety and comfort of movement often depends on this detail, especially in a car like the VAZ Priora.
The manufacturer has equipped the car of this brand with rims with a diameter of R14 and a width of 5.5. But the manufacturer also provided the possibility of replacing native disks with disks used on other models.
If within the Volga automobile industry models the interchangeability of wheels and tires is a common thing, then as for foreign cars, everything is much more complicated. After all, sometimes it happens that the owner of a VAZ easily gets wheels from a foreign car, where the workmanship is better and the appearance is more attractive.
But one problem arises: foreign-made rims have slight differences in the location of the holes for the bolts, which differ from VAZ ones. But how do you install wheels from a foreign car on your dear and beloved Priora?
This is where the concept of chatter comes into play. To understand what a bolt pattern is on a Priora, you need to understand the very concept of a bolt pattern.
What wheels are on the car?
Initially, the car was offered only in a sedan body. And depending on the configuration option, you could order wheels of either 15th or 16th diameter. The situation did not change with the advent of the SW station wagon - the wheels on the Lada Vesta SV are exactly the same as those on the SE sedan.
And only with the advent of the Cross all-terrain version in sedan and station wagon bodies, the size of Lada Vesta wheels increased to a diameter of 17 inches. And this again distinguishes the car from all previous versions of LADA, which in the factory configuration were offered mainly with wheels with a diameter of 13, 14 and 15 inches.
Large wheels are also available in the Lada Vesta Sport version - and 17-inch tires are mounted on wheels that differ from the standard ones in the number of bolts, bolt pattern and centering hole.
Syverlovka and bolt pattern of VAZ wheels
Wheel bolt pattern on VAZ 2107
The design of the seven involves drilling 4x98 wheels, where the number 4 indicates the number of bolts, and 98 indicates the diameter of the holes on the disc structure.
Many foreign cars use a bolt pattern with similar parameters – 4×100. In the first situation, the distance between the centering bolts is 69.3 mm, and in the second case - 70.7 mm. The error is 1.4 mm and does not allow for tight fixation of a non-standard disc.

Many foreign cars use a bolt pattern with similar parameters – 4×100. In the first situation, the distance between the centering bolts is 69.3 mm, and in the second case - 70.7 mm. The error is 1.4 mm and does not allow for tight fixation of a non-standard disc.
In addition, installing a car disk with non-standard parameters can lead to deformation of elements, namely mounting holes and bolts.
There are other methods for attaching 100x4 rims to the seven. For example, you can use extended bolts, adapter rings, studs and eccentrics. However, these parts can ultimately complicate or impair the mounting of the wheel product.
Therefore, it is recommended to install standard car wheels and tires so as not to lead to wheel imbalance and vibration while driving.
Wheels on the VAZ 2107 are equipped with 13-inch stamped wheels or analogues with identical parameters. Tires have dimensions 175/70/R13.
Bus parameters | Disc sizes | Bolt pattern | Width | Departure | Center hole |
175/70/R13 | 13” | 4×98 | 5.0J | ET 29 | DIA 60.1 |
The nominal pressure in “seven” tires directly depends on the tire sizes:
175/70/R13 – 1.9 rear, 1.6 front wheels;
165/80/R13 – 2.0 rear, 1.7 front.
Wheel bolt pattern on model 2106
For a six, the wheel bolt pattern is 4×98. As for the factory dimensions of the disks, then:
- standard width is 5.0J,
- centering hole 58.5 mm,
- departure ET
Tire size for the six is 175/70/R13.
As a restyling, you can install wheels 185/60/14, 195/50/R15.
Tire parameters | Factory bolt pattern | Non-standard disk parameters |
155/R13/82Q | 4×98 | 4.5Jx13 ET37 |
175/70/R13 82 S | 4×98 | 5Jx13 ET29 |

175/65/R14 82S | 4×98 | 5.5Jx14ET29 |
Drilling on the VAZ 2109 model
The VAZ 2109, “nine”, has factory settings for the wheel bolt pattern of 4×98. The factory equipment was equipped with 175/70/R13 tires and 13-inch wheels.
Tire sizes | Disc sizes | Bolt pattern | Departure | Center hole |
175/70/R13 | 13 | 4x98 5Jx13 | ET29 | 58,6 |
175/65/R14 | 14 | 4×98 5.5Jx14 | ET29 | 58,6 |
