Title: Brm 15x6.5
Post by: Chris E. on October 15, 2006, 04:05:25 PM
Anyone using brm 15X6.5 wheels on the rear of their bug (swingaxle)? If so, what size of rubber are you using? And are there any clearance issues?

Regret I do not know about BMRs.

 I have ran 225 60 15 on wide 5 5 1/2\" chromies on a 64 stock, and Arc is running them now.

 I also ran 205 50 15 on 5 spoke Empi 5 1/2\" with a 1/4 or 3/8 spacers.

 I have 175 70 15 on stock rims 4. 1/2\" currently.

 Also Plan to run 195 60 15 or 195 65 15 on 5 1/2\"  when I get my new motor.

basically it depends on your BMR's offset.

Hope that helps.

p/s look at the technical wheel sizing above on the right.
