I have 19" alloys on my antara se nav. I am thinking that I will buy a complete spare set of wheels/tyres for winter use. Does anyone know what will fit please ?
The officially recommended winter tyre size for the Antara is 215/70R16 fitted to an appropriate 16 inch wheel. This size of wheel/tyre is also useful if you want to buy something to use as a spare instead of the can of goo that comes with the car.myjamfactory said:I have 19" alloys on my antara se nav.

Where did you get your steel wheels and tyres from. I have a SE Sat nav with 19 inch wheels. I live in the north of scotland
Yes, it is almost exactly the same diameter as the 19 inch wheel/tyre. It fits perfectly in the boot, but you have to remove the centre section of the boot insert which contains the puncture repair kit.alfiethedog said:Thanks guys wil this rim be ok for my 19 inch wheels and if I use it as a spare does it fit in the boot.

Welcome to the forum.
I only bought one steel wheel to use as a spare wheel. I got it from my VX dealer, Mackays of Dingwall. This is the one I bought. I also got them to fit an oppropriate tyre to the wheel.

Instead of buying a full set of winter wheels and tyres, I changed the tyres which were supplied with the car for a set of four 19 inch Dunlop Grandtrek All Seasons Tyres. I bought those from Goodtread Tyre Fitters in Alness.
The wheel will fit ok but you will have to remove the centre section of the foam insert. Just in case you forgot, remember you will need to get a jack as well.alfiethedog said:Hi just ordered the steel rim 6.5J x16. Vx recommend fitting a 225/16 for 19inch wheels. Does any one know if this combination fits under the boot with out any modifications.
