The size of tires and wheels not only adds style to the car, but also greatly influences the vehicle's performance on the road. Each manufacturer indicates acceptable standard sizes, and AVTOVAZ is no exception. In this review, we will look at the wheel size of the Lada Largus.
Usually, the manufacturer, depending on the modification of the car, indicates several acceptable wheel sizes, Lada Largus is an exception. The instruction manual indicates the only wheel size for all trim levels: 185/65R15 . Lada Largus wheel parameters: 6Jx15, offset (ET) for R15 = ET50. Wheel hub bolt pattern 4x100. Everyone knows that the Lada Largus is a 2006 Dacia Logan MCV adapted for the Russian market. The technical characteristics of the foreign car indicate exactly the same wheel size.
Based on reviews and surveys of Lada Largus car owners, we can summarize:
- The most popular tire size with a diameter of 14 inches turned out to be 185/70R14 , by the way, it is indicated in the table with tire pressure. Another less popular option is 165/80R14.
- The majority use the standard wheel size 185/65R15 . Another popular size of the same radius is 195/65R15 . A few installed 205/60R15 and 195/60R15 tires on their cars.
- Fans of larger wheels install tires: 205/55 R16 , 195/60 R16 and 195/55 R16.
- R17 wheels: 205/50R17 , 205/45R17, 225/45R17 or 215/50R17.
- Exclusive sizes: 215/35R18 and 215/40/18.
R is not a radius, but a designation of the radius of the tire, and the number is the diameter of the rim in inches. The most popular wheel sizes are shown in bold.
When choosing wheels, you should take into account the full diameter of the wheel; it should not differ much from the standard one. Compatibility table:
Green indicates the minimum deviation of the wheel diameter (up to 3 mm); Orange indicates a diameter deviation from 3 to 6 mm.
Don't forget about the rim width:
Basic dimensions
The main indicators of the dimensions of any car, first of all, are understood as the dimensions of the body.
Everyone knows that Lada-Largus is a model made on the Renault Dasia Logan MSV platform (2006 variation), but completely adapted for the Russian market. Considering such a relationship between the two cars, it seems surprising that there are some differences in their dimensions, even if they are not significant. Despite the fact that the Lada-Largus is available in three body variations: a station wagon (5 seats), a minivan (7 seats) and a van (2 seats) - the dimensions of all variations are the same, with the exception of height. More precisely, the machine dimensions are as follows (in mm):
- length – 4470;
- width – 1750;
- width including side mirrors – 2003;
- height – 1636 (station wagon/minivan) and 1650 (van);
- height taking into account restylings - 1670 (station wagon/minivan) and 1686 (van);
- ground clearance - 145-175, which depends on the load of the car (210-170 - for Lada-Largus Cross);
- wheelbase - 2900;
- front track - 1469;
- rear track - 1466;
- front/rear overhangs – 797/771.
Having analyzed the dimensions of the car, we can conclude that the car is quite large for a B-class. Such circumstances emerge not only in theory, but also in practice, judging by the reviews of the owners. Many of them note that the dimensions fit quite well into the aesthetic concept of the car and do not cause any inconvenience during its operation.
Is it possible to increase the track on Largus
To install wide tires and not damage the fender liners, you will have to install spacers that increase the wheel track. This achieves two effects at once:
- The car owner receives the desired wheel width.
- Improves vehicle stability during high-speed maneuvers.
But there are also negative aspects - an increase in the track contributes to faster wear of the wheel bearings. As the length of the hub assembly increases, the pressure on the bearing increases. Because of this, it will fail ahead of schedule.
For this reason, increasing the track on the Lada Largus is not recommended.
Selecting wheels for Cross
Lada Largus cross ground clearance
The manufacturer did not just add the word Cross to the name of Largus. This means that the new car is more capable of off-road driving. It’s not for nothing that the designers decided to increase the vehicle’s ground clearance. For the Cross, larger wheels are installed - R16. AvtoVAZ does not give you the opportunity to choose others - you only need to install the 16th diameter.
Designers, of course, provide additional parameters for wheels on the Lada Largus Cross:
- bolt pattern - 4×100;
- width - 7.0J;
- departure ET 40;
- centering hole - TsO 60.1.
However, Cross has not been on the market long enough for the ideal wheel size for a model from a third-party manufacturer to be empirically determined. However, the younger model, the regular Largus, has been on the market for a long time. Therefore, it makes sense to turn to owner reviews. However, the common phenomenon of Largus drivers changing 15-inch wheels to the diameter of R14 Cross is not suitable. What's the point of lowering the ground clearance in a car designed for off-road use? So, the car will again become a station wagon, all the efforts of the designers will be nullified.
When choosing wheels for Cross, you need to consider the following parameters:
- The rim size may vary by 1-1.5 inches. This is the standard deviation for discs with a diameter greater than 15.
- The width is less than 25-30% of the width of the rubber profile.
Such deviations in theory are allowed from the factory wheel of the Lada Largus Cross.
Based on reviews and surveys of Lada Largus car owners, we can summarize:
- You can’t get away from size 16 at Largus Cross;
- when installing wheels of a different size on a new car, you can easily lose warranty service - this is the main factor in the near future;
- installing disks of a smaller diameter neutralizes the increase in ground clearance, which makes such a change unprofitable in terms of cross-country ability;
- installation of other wheels, especially larger ones, requires adjustment in width so that they do not extend beyond the arch;
- The ABS system will have to be calibrated if the size is changed significantly.
Most car enthusiasts prefer not to touch the disc, but to install tires with different sizes. This allows you to achieve the desired characteristics in terms of aesthetics or driving performance. However, you need to remember that changing the tire size entails consequences similar to replacing the disc. This is especially true for profile size. Low-profile tires often experience so-called punctures on our roads - irregularities bend the profile and wrinkle the rim. This leads to expensive repairs.
Safety comes first - so you should be careful when changing the design of your car. It is worth noting that the manufacturer selected wheels for Largus Cross with unique parameters that are rarely found
It is unknown for what reasons the choice fell on these particular discs. There are designs with a smaller reach parameter, but they will be wider. Because of this, the load on the bearings will change, but the main thing is that the sides of the car will always be in the mud. Even in dry weather there will be a layer of dust on the sides. Experienced car enthusiasts recommend installing KiK wheels, which are certified by AvtoVAZ. This way you can maintain the warranty on your new car from the manufacturer.

Expert advice
When choosing tires for a car, you must first follow the manufacturer's instructions. Ask yourself a few questions.
- On what roads will the car be primarily used?
- Do you need increased cross-country ability?
- How much of the route will be city roads and how much will be highways?
- Will the vehicle carry heavy loads?
The answers to these and similar questions will help determine which tire parameters you need to pay special attention to.
How to choose the right wheels for Lada Largus Cross 2016?
3 types of rims:
- Stamped (economical price category) - made from a sheet of iron by stamping on a press.
- Light alloy - manufactured by casting (more reliable than stamped ones).
- Forged (the highest quality and more expensive than the previous ones) - made from light alloys by stamping at high temperatures.
The choice depends on financial capabilities. However, it should be borne in mind that the quality of the road surface on which you have to drive every day must also be taken into account.
So, if it gets into a hole, a stamped disk will bend and will not cause harm to the tire, but a forged or cast one can cut it. There is a possibility that the cast disc may burst or crack.
It should also be noted that repairing “stamping” wheels is cheaper than repairing cast or forged wheels. But wheels with high-quality cast and forged disks kill the suspension less, because lighter and have more perfect geometry (better balanced).
The same wheels may or may not rub with tires on the same car - wheel alignment adjustment will help here.
What is the tire pressure?
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly monitor tire pressure. This will avoid standard problems associated with vehicle operation. An abnormal pressure value often causes:
- deterioration of management;
- uneven tread wear.
Often the car owner independently reduces the pressure in the wheels of his own vehicle. This reduces the load on the suspension, and the car “passes” various road irregularities an order of magnitude easier. But it is worth noting: a decrease in pressure even by 0.1 MPa leads to serious problems. The main ones include:
- increased fuel consumption;
- rapid wear of the outer tread segments;
- the car becomes less maneuverable.
An overinflated wheel causes no less problems. The central part of the cylinder begins to wear off quickly. In addition, at ambient temperatures of more than 60 degrees Celsius, the tire may simply explode. Which will lead to driving into the oncoming lane.

What non-standard sizes can be supplied?
What wheels are suitable for the Largus fret?
Buy tires based on the full diameter of the wheel. It shouldn't be too different from the standard one.
Standard sizes allowed for installation.
| Model | Size, load capacity index | Center diameter wheel holes (DIA) | Radius between holes (PCD) | Number of nuts, pcs. | Wheel width, inches | Disc offset (ET) |
| R90 | 185/65R 15 88 H | 60,1 | 100 | 4 | 6J | 50 |
| F90 | 185/65R 15 92 H | 60,1 | 100 | 4 | 6J | 50 |
| CROSS | 205/55R 16 91 H | 60,1 | 100 | 4 | 5 ½, 6, 6 ½ J | 50 |
| Parameter | Increasing tire width | Increasing rim width |
| Keeping the car on the road | will improve | will improve |
| Accuracy of maintaining a given direction of movement | will improve | will improve |
| Road grip coefficient | will increase on dry roads | does not affect |
| Resistance to aquaplaning effect | will get worse | without changes |
| Traffic noise | will intensify | does not affect |
| Feelings when driving on rough roads | more comfortable | does not affect |
| Fuel consumption | will increase | will increase |
| Tire wear time | will speed up | without changes |
Be sure to calculate the load capacity index. Depending on the model, 88 (560 kg), 92 (630 kg) and 91 (615 kg) are allowed. The speed index is indicated next to the load capacity. T – up to 190 km/h, H – up to 210, V – up to 240.
An approximate formula will come in handy. Calculate the mass of the car, the weight of all possible passengers and cargo. Divide by 4 (wheels). Add a little extra.
Important! Installing large wheels can lead to incorrect operation of the ABS and electronic dynamic stabilization system of the vehicle. The lighter the tires and wheels, the faster the vehicle accelerates.
So, a car will accelerate to 100 km/h 0.2 seconds faster if the wheel weight is 2 kg less
The lighter the tires and wheels, the faster the vehicle accelerates. Thus, a car will accelerate to 100 km/h 0.2 seconds faster if the wheel weight is 2 kg less.
What is the tire pressure
The tire pressure level is specified in the manufacturer's instructions.
| Model | Front tire pressure, kgf/cm² | Rear tire pressure, kgf/cm² |
| R90 | 2,4 | 2,6 |
| F90 | 2,4 | 3,0 |
| CROSS | 2,4 | 2,6 |
Constant monitoring of this parameter is necessary. Fluctuations to a lesser or greater extent affect the behavior of the car, efficiency, and driving safety. Let's look at the relationship more specifically.
Pressure higher than specified:
- the tire is harder, the comfort of movement decreases;
- the risk of damaging the wheel when hitting a stone or hole increases;
- grip on the road deteriorates;
- braking distance increases;
- the tread pattern wears unevenly;
- wheels rotate easier;
- machine stability improves.
Pressure below normal:
- fuel consumption increases;
- rubber wear increases (due to an increase in the contact patch area);
- car steering accuracy deteriorates;
- stability on the road surface decreases (due to changes in the angle of inclination);
- the risk of skidding increases.
What parameters and characteristics should you pay attention to when choosing tires for the Lada Largus Cross?
When choosing tires for the Lada Largus model, you must follow the dimensions presented below for both the tires themselves and the wheels.
Recommended tire size:
As for disks, the parameters and sizes for them are as follows:
- Disc bolt pattern - 4×100.
- Rim width - 7.0J, inches.
- Rim offset - ET 40, millimeters.
- The diameter of the centering hole is CO 60.1, millimeters.
In the factory configuration, the Largus version is equipped with 14, 15 or 16-inch wheels. For the “Cross” version, only 16-inch wheels are installed. You can choose winter tires for this car without much difficulty, the main thing is to comply with all the required dimensions.
This is not a problem, but it might come in handy for someone. The question arose about the size of tires for the winter. On the website, many write that 205/60/R16 fits without problems. Well, on the Largus Cross this size looks absolutely perfect. Moreover, in my opinion In my opinion, this size on the Cross should be stock from the factory.
Yesterday I tested the tires especially for RUSTEM50. And unfortunately I must note that there are problems (If you twist the steering wheel all the way and try to turn sharply, the rubber catches on the fender liner, not much, but there is a characteristic sound. Otherwise, jumping over police officers and combing have not yet noticed any problems .Now we have a thaw, but as soon as the snow porridge appears, I’ll test for frozen ice under the fender liners and report back.
The LADA Largus car quite confidently won the hearts of lovers of the domestic brand. Largely due to the good quality of workmanship, reliability of the units and significant capacity not only in the cabin, but also in the luggage compartment. Maintenance of the car is simple; in particular, the range of winter tires on the Lada Largus will pleasantly surprise you with the variety of manufacturers and a wide range of sizes. This article will go into detail on this topic with several recommendations for choosing tires.
What tire sizes does the manufacturer recommend to install?
It is worth noting: the size of tires and wheels not only makes the appearance of the car more stylish. But it also affects the behavior of the vehicle on the road. Lada Largus is produced by the AvtoVAZ concern. The manufacturer guarantees good handling and no problems with the suspension only when using wheels of the recommended sizes.
Some manufacturers specify several acceptable wheel types for their vehicle. However, Largus is an exception. The AvtoVAZ concern has established only 1 acceptable type of wheels. It has a standard size of 185/65 mm with a diameter of 15 inches. Standard parameters for Lada Largus wheels:
- 6J at 15;
- departure (ET) – ET50;
- hub bolt pattern – 4 × 100 mm.
However, it is worth noting that the Lada Largus is a Dacia Logan MCV 2006 car adapted for the Russian market. The technical characteristics of the foreign car indicate a similar size for tires and wheels. Therefore, when choosing tires, you can be guided by the recommendations specifically for the Logan MCV 2006.
The Lada Largus series is presented in three separate versions - R90, F90, Cross. You can purchase versions with 7 or 5 seats. There is also a cargo version. It is labeled as F90. There are some distinctive features for the Cross version of the car.
Recommended wheel and tire sizes for Lada Largus
The size of tires and wheels not only adds style to the car, but also greatly influences the vehicle's performance on the road. Each manufacturer indicates acceptable standard sizes, and AvtoVAZ is no exception. In this review, we will look at the wheel size of the Lada Largus.
Usually, the manufacturer, depending on the modification of the car, indicates several acceptable wheel sizes, Lada Largus is an exception. The instruction manual indicates the only wheel size for all trim levels: 185/65R15. Lada Largus wheel parameters: 6Jx15, offset (ET) for R15 = ET50. Wheel hub bolt pattern 4x100. Everyone knows that the Lada Largus is a 2006 Dacia Logan MCV adapted for the Russian market. The technical characteristics of the foreign car indicate exactly the same wheel size.
Based on reviews and surveys of Lada Largus car owners, we can summarize:
- The most popular tire size with a diameter of 14 inches turned out to be 185/70R14; by the way, it is indicated in the table with tire pressure. Another less popular option is 165/80R14.
- The majority use the standard wheel size 185/65R15. Another popular size of the same radius is 195/65R15. A few installed 205/60R15 and 195/60R15 tires on their cars.
- Fans of larger wheels install tires: 205/55 R16, 195/60 R16 and 195/55 R16.
- R17 wheels: 205/50R17, 205/45R17, 225/45R17 or 215/50R17.
- Exclusive sizes: 215/35R18 and 215/40/18.
R is not a radius, but a designation of the radius of the tire, and the number is the diameter of the rim in inches. The most popular wheel sizes are shown in bold.

Don't forget about the rim width:
Dimensions and dimensions
and “Largus Cross” wheels only in sizes R15 and R16. Installation of products on 17 and 18 inches is possible. However, in this case the warranty will be lost. The comfort level on large wheels will also decrease.
For 15-inch wheels, 195/5 R15 tires are often used; sometimes you can find sizes 205/60 R15, 195/60 R15. Tuning enthusiasts most often install wheels of sizes 205/55 R16, 195/60 R16. Sometimes you can find large ones, such as R17: 215/50 R17, 205/50 R17, and a very rare option are the sizes 215/40 R18, 215/35 R18.
Review of the best summer and winter tires
When choosing tires, owners take into account the following points:
manufacturer; operating conditions (pay attention to the pattern, tread); size; price category.
Based on reviews from Lada Largus owners, let's summarize.
The majority of survey participants adhere to the recommended sizes. The most popular non-standard tires are 195/65 R15, 195/60 R15, 205/60 R15.
Top 5 summer tires:
Nokian (HAKKA GREEN 2, Nordman SX); Michelin (Energy XM2); Continental (ContiPremiumContact 5); Matador (MP 44 Elite 3) Amtel (Planet T-301)
Attention. Complaints about rapid wear
They can burst at high speed.
The tread pattern is:
- asymmetrical;
- directed;
- symmetrical (universal, therefore the most popular).
The latter is ideal for use around the city. It has an affordable price. The downside is unsatisfactory handling at high speed, on wet road surfaces, and when making sharp turns.
Top 5 winter tires:
- Nokian;
- Michelin;
- Continental;
- Goodyear;
- Gislaved/Hankook/Bridgestone.
It is recommended to install standard winter tires. Studded or non-studded - depends on personal preferences and operating conditions. The first option is more popular among Lada Largus owners.
The pattern and tread height are important. You shouldn't skimp on winter tires.
"All-season" is not the best option. They lose to seasonal tires in most respects. In winter, there is a high risk of getting into an accident on such tires. Application. Table from the instructions.
Reading time: 5 minutes
Winter wheels on Largus are those products of various sizes that can be selected without any problems. Even novice motorists should not have any problems with this task. In this matter, the main thing is to decide on the optimal tire sizes, manufacturer’s brand and required characteristics. Unlike summer tires, for winter tires you do not need to worry about the size of the products themselves. On the contrary, it needs to be reduced as much as possible.
The presented Lada Largus Cross car from the AvtoVAZ concern, regardless of the year of manufacture, is a station wagon model and is equipped with cast wheels or stamped steel wheels in the basic versions. Steel ones are quite rare; cast versions are more common for this brand. The parameters, characteristics and recommended sizes of original winter tires must correspond to those established by the manufacturer.
Wheels for Largus Cross, winter
Which summer tires are best for Largus Cross cars?
Choosing summer tires for the Largus KrossTires on the Largus must necessarily correspond to the standard size of the wheel structure.
When choosing, the speed and weight index, brand and tread pattern are taken into account. The production date of the products plays an important role - if they were made more than 5 years ago, it is better to refuse such a purchase.
The pattern is divided into two types: asymmetrical, directional and symmetrical. The last option is considered the most popular. Since the symmetrical pattern is suitable for most cars. This option is considered as the most convenient for moving around the city. The main reason for choosing this pattern is low cost.
The directional tread pattern allows car owners to drive off-road, providing ideal directional stability and handling. Unfortunately, there is some noise when driving off-road.
Important! The asymmetrical pattern has better characteristics. This option helps ensure ideal directional stability and reduce the risk of aquaplaning.
These products have a high price.
When replacing wheel structures, it is necessary to select standard models. When installing large components, you will have to choose the appropriate tires with a low profile. To move on a flat road, it is better to use low-profile tires. This tire improves dynamic performance and handling.
DIY tire replacement rules
In order to save money, many car enthusiasts are thinking about replacing tires themselves. The process is not the easiest, but doable. To work, you will need a balloon, mounting blades, a jack and a compressor or pump. When performing the procedure, you should take into account some tricks, without which this event is doomed to failure.
Removing the tire from the rim
First you need to remove the wheel from the hub. Then it is laid on the ground so that the nipple nipple is at the top. All the air is released from the tube or tire, in the case of a tubeless tire, and the nipple nipple is recessed inside. You need to stand on the wheel with your feet so that the edge of the tire separates from the rim of the disc. Sometimes extra force may be required if the rubber sticks to the metal.
A mounting blade is inserted into the gap between the edge of the tire and the disk, then a second one. The main task is to turn the sidewall of the tire beyond the edge of the rim. If the wheel has a tube, it is pulled out through the resulting gap. If the tire is tubeless, you need to unscrew the entire side of the tire by the rim, then unscrew the second sidewall of the tire using the same edge of the rim and remove it from the rim.
Mounting a tire on a rim
Before installation, make sure that the tire is the correct size and has no defects. It is recommended to remove the balancing weights and the old nipple. When installing, you should take into account the markings on the tire, usually the direction of travel in the form of arrows.
To facilitate the installation task, you can apply a soap solution to the edge of the tire and the rim of the disk, but within reasonable limits, otherwise the tire will slip. Installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal. First, one edge of the tire is put on, after which the second one is wound on the rim.
Tire pressure and inflation
For wheels with a tube, everything is simple - you need to inflate the tube more than required in the manual (the pressure in Largus tires is no more than 2.1 atmospheres). This is necessary so that the tube sits evenly in the tire, after which you can deflate the air to the required values. For a tubeless tire the process is more complicated. When you try to inflate it, air will escape through the gap between the edge of the rim and the sidewalls of the tire.
You need to inflate any other wheel to 4 atmospheres. After this, remove the hose from the pump and put the end without a fitting on the nipple of the installed tire, the other end with a fitting is put on the inflated tire. Air under high pressure and at high speed will quickly fill an empty tire. This will be enough for it to sit tightly on the rim without having time to let air through the gaps. But it’s better to go to a tire shop, where this procedure will take a few minutes using special equipment. After the procedure, you will need to balance the wheels, which cannot be done in a garage without a machine.
Unlike all previous AvtoVAZ models, larger wheels are initially installed on Largus. This way, this model further emphasizes its relationship with other brands. Lada Largus is a joint product of AvtoVAZ and the Nissan-Renault concern.

Description of the tire. Best used within large cities.
The rubber is soft and allows for a stable, comfortable ride in any conditions: on dry and wet asphalt, in slush and with snow on the road.
Three longitudinal tracks and a developed system of deep grooves do an excellent job of removing snow slush and water, so you don’t have to worry about hydroplaning or slushplaning.
Powerful tread blocks with increased elasticity increase cross-country ability in snow and mud, while reliably adhering to clean asphalt.
The checkers of the central zone are shaped to promote directional stability.
The model uses VSS technology with variable sidewall stiffness. This approach allows the wheel to adapt to the road without reducing the level of comfort of movement.
Despite the softness, the rubber is durable, wear-resistant, and is not afraid of impacts on bumps and holes.
A decent winter option for places where spikes are not recommended.
- Good adhesion properties.
- Good cross-country ability on compacted and loose snow.
- Durable.
- Wear-resistant.
- The price is not high.
- On icy surfaces, grip is worse than on snow.
Options
The AvtoVAZ concern added the Cross prefix to the model name for a reason. It is understood that the model has increased off-road capabilities.
The car's ground clearance was increased and the base wheels were installed a size larger than those of the base model. There are no options for replacing R16 disks with others.
The parameters of the basic wheel rims are as follows:
- drilling parameter is 4×100;
- wheel width - 7.0 J;
- disc offset is ET 40;
- centering hole size - 60.1.
Knowing all the various methods for producing wheel rims and their advantages, you can choose a set of quality products for Lada Largus. In order for the disc to fit perfectly, you also need to know the basic parameters and dimensions of the mounts.
Wheels for cars
Lada Largus is a station wagon with increased capability for transporting cargo. The car was released in 2011. The basis for the car was the Dacia Logan model, which is produced in Romania. "Largus" immediately became quite popular among car enthusiasts due to its increased capacity, low price and ease of maintenance.
Original alloy wheels "Lada Largus"
For any vehicle, wheels and tires are more than just a design element. It is on them that the behavior of the car on the road depends as much as possible. It is customary for all car manufacturers to indicate recommended dimensions for all their models. The AvtoVAZ concern is no exception.
However, it is not always and not among all manufacturers that it is customary to indicate the permissible dimensions and parameters of wheels. Often there are several options listed without specifying the minimum and maximum allowable ones. For example, in the official instruction manual for the Lada, the parameters of the wheels on the Largus are indicated in only two options:
- The usual model of the Largus station wagon should be equipped with products with a radius of R15.
- The all-terrain model "Largus Cross" is equipped with wheels size R16.
The AvtoVAZ concern does not recommend installing wheels of other sizes. Basically, they are replaced when the season changes, possible damage occurs, in which it is undesirable to use the product. In this case, replacing the disks with identical ones is explained by traffic safety.
Wheels for Lada Largus R15
Installing unsuitable wheels can affect the following characteristics:
- traffic safety;
- warranty conditions for the car, if the period has not yet expired;
- high-quality work of parts and suspension units;
- wear of chassis parts.
Since the car has become quite widespread on the roads of the country, there are many offers for the sale of wheels and tires for it. In the original configuration, the Largus is equipped with stamped wheels. In this case, many car enthusiasts are not satisfied with the appearance and characteristics of the car in motion. Then the stamped products are changed to cast or forged. Wheels on Largus size 15 are the only ones provided by the manufacturer, regardless of whether they are stamped or cast.
The Largus Cross model, even in the basic configuration, comes with installed cast parts.
Original alloy wheels on Largus Cross
If the owner has decided to replace the wheels, then there is plenty to choose from. The market offers stamped, cast and forged products of various sizes, colors and designs.
Car enthusiasts have the opportunity to purchase both original rims from the manufacturer and all kinds of replicas or used products. Various global manufacturers of cast and forged products are widely represented. These can be very popular, high-quality and expensive brands or lesser-known inexpensive ones.
Manufacturing methods and other factors
Linear parameters are not the only deciding factor. Some also choose to change the material the disc is made from. This is an important point - the material from which the purchased disc will be made, as well as the technology for its manufacture. The most popular types of discs found on sale are made of steel, aluminum, magnesium and titanium.
This series is arranged in ascending order of cost. At the same time, steel wheels are the heaviest, but flexible. Aluminum and magnesium alloys produce lightweight parts. This certainly significantly reduces fuel consumption. But such rims are quite easy to damage. But titanium gives the highest strength index. This is what you pay the most.
But for some drivers, it is not necessary to wait for damage to “change” the car. This applies to tuning enthusiasts. But here's what you need to know when choosing the color and appearance of a disc, which is made in different ways. There are stamped, cast and forged discs. So, manufacturing technology affects the ability to obtain a certain color and variety of styles. Stamped and forged wheels, due to the peculiarities of the technology, cannot be presented to customers in aesthetic diversity. But cast ones are easy. They are represented on the market in the largest number of positions.
The degree of damage and fuel consumption also depend on the method of manufacturing the disc. Stamped - they bend when hit, but do not crack. They can be restored. And due to the heavy weight of the car, gasoline costs increase. Another disadvantage is their susceptibility to corrosion, which cannot be said about cast products. But if the cast disc is cracked, it cannot be repaired. But the most expensive type of disc is forged. It is very difficult to deform, and it weighs little.
The manufacturer's recommendations also indicate what the optimal tire pressure should be. After all, it happens that when drivers change cars, out of habit they pump up the tire to one level, but it turns out to be either too low or too high. Both are bad. At a low level, the rubber on the disc is damaged, and at a high level, there is a high probability of breaking through the ramp or damaging the spool.
When choosing the optimal disc option, you should take into account many parameters that match the vehicle and do not forget about safety.

What wheel sizes does the manufacturer recommend to install?
The Lada Largus B0 2014 1.6i is equipped with 5.5Jx14 ET45 rims assembled with 185/70 R14 88T tires as standard. Where:
- 5.5J - rim width in inches;
- 14″ — tire diameter in inches;
- ET45 - disc offset in millimeters.
The vehicle tire marking 185/70 R14 is deciphered as follows:
- 185 — profile width (cross section of the tire) in millimeters;
- 70 - profile height as a percentage of its width;
- R - radial cord winding;
- 14 is the tire diameter in inches.
In addition, information about its load capacity and speed parameters can be printed on the rubber - load index and speed index. The load index is a two- or three-digit number; the speed index is indicated in Latin letters, for example 88T:
- 88 - maximum permissible tire load 560 kg;
- T — maximum permissible vehicle speed is 190 km/h.
Using the recommended tire sizes will help you avoid problems with handling, safety and other difficulties. What non-standard sizes can be supplied? Refer to the table; it indicates possible acceptable alternative sizes for tuning. Although there are other options that we have not described in the table. For example, wider discs of the same diameter. Or install wheels of the same width, but with a larger diameter, which is quite popular among car owners. The choice of discs is huge; you can find copies with the same parameters, but with an overhang 1-2 millimeters more or less. It is not possible to list all the options.
At the same time, the bolt pattern for all types of wheels is the same - 4x100. Thus, all disks are mounted with four bolts and the distance between them is exactly one hundred millimeters. The diameter of the car's hub is 60.1 mm.
Standard tire pressure is 2.4 / 2.6 MPa.
Is it possible to install non-standard wheels with standard 15-inch ones?
Many drivers still have 14-inch wheels from their previous cars. They want to install them instead of the required standard 15-inch ones to save money. Moreover, stamping is heavy, but these seem practical in winter.
When installing non-standard parts, problems arise in the caliper bracket, which protrudes strongly relative to the plane of contact with the hub.
There is no gap when installing 14-inch wheels; When the nuts are tightened, the disc does not spin. The non-standard 15-inch ones also do not spin, but rub against the protruding bracket. And 16-inch ones create the necessary gap.
There are products with a shorter offset; when they are installed, the wheels will be positioned wider, this will lead to a change in the load on the bearings, and road dirt will fly onto the side of the car. If you put 6.5-inch wheels with an offset of 45 on a car, the wheel will hit. If there is a warranty on the car, certified K&K products are recommended.
So, of course, you can save money and install non-standard, non-original parts, but in this case the driving performance of the car is lost
When purchasing original spare parts, when deciding which wheels are suitable for Largus, you also need to pay attention to the diameter, width, choosing the most suitable option, taking into account the pros and cons of each type
How to choose alloy wheels
For the Largus Cross car model, there are many different variations for installing wheel rims. They vary in manufacturing methods, shapes, cost and design.
The characteristics, price and controllability of the machine depend as much as possible on the method of production of the products. For Lada Largus Cross, wheels are made from the following materials:
- Steel. Conventional stamped products are made from it.
- Aluminum and magnesium. Cast or alloy wheels are made from these materials.
- Titanium. In combination with aluminum and magnesium it is a raw material for the production of forged products.
As for the price, stamped wheels are the cheapest. Cast ones are considered more expensive and of higher quality. And forged products provide maximum strength and wear resistance. They are also the most expensive in the list of products presented.
In this case, forged wheels have the minimum weight and maximum strength characteristics. They have long been known for their use in auto racing and have become widespread in the automotive industry. But the forging process does not allow creating a variety of shapes and textures, so such products are limited in design solutions.
Stamped steel wheels can take any shape. Their prices also please car owners. However, high weight and low characteristics negate all the advantages of this manufacturing method.
Casting is another matter. The process allows you to create products of any shape and texture. In terms of weight and strength, these products are slightly inferior to forged ones. But the ability to create a product of any size, width and shape quite cheaply makes these products extremely common on auto store shelves.
You can choose cast products for the Largus Cross machine from a wide range. Products from many brands of various colors, parameters and sizes are presented. The most famous companies Sparco, MOMO and Enkei are famous for their quality. You can choose cheaper products.
Alloy wheels are highly resistant to possible damage. Also among the advantages is light weight, due to which the car has greater dynamics and better handling.
Weight matters
A car disk is a simple flywheel mounted on a hub. To set it in motion, you need to expend a certain amount of energy, the source of which is fuel. And the greater the mass of the wheel, the more fuel will be required to spin it. But it is much more difficult to stop the wheel when its rotation speed is very high. At that moment, a very large load is placed on the braking system. Therefore, not only the comfort and controllability of the car, but also the safety of passengers in the cabin depends on the quality of the disc and the materials used to make it.
Modern wheels are made of steel and various light alloys, which give them a number of advantages:
- Welded steel disc. This is a familiar stamped version that boasts a low price and durability. It is these discs that have the heaviest weight, are easily deformed and are more susceptible to corrosion than others. But with all their shortcomings, they are not so bad - if after falling into a hole the disk is dented, this can be quickly corrected at a service station.
- Alloy wheels (cast and forged). They have much lighter weight, high anti-corrosion and strength properties and many design solutions. But they are already much more expensive. When subjected to strong impacts, alloy wheels do not bend like steel wheels, but rather crack. Forged ones can withstand the strongest blows and are practically impossible to bend.

The smaller the unsprung masses
(this includes a lot 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)
