WHAT IS A BREED SET?
A wide set of rims means that the rear rims of the rim set are wider than the front rims. On a wide set of rims, wider tires are therefore mounted on the rear axle than on the front axle. A combination of a wide set of rims with matching tires is also called a wide set. A wide set guarantees superior grip due to the wider rear tires. And the appearance of the car is also significantly upgraded by mounting a wide kit. With an original wide set you are assured of rims with the right fit and tires with the correct sizes, specifically developed for your car.
When to install a wide set?
A wide set is mounted in combination with summer tires. Due to the larger track width of a wide set, it is not suitable for winter tires. The wide rear tires of a wide set guarantee grip on dry roads. With a wide set you make optimal use of the accelerating power of your car and a wide set provides greater stability at high speeds. Both the front rims and the rear rims of a wide set have a specific rim width, ET value and load capacity. The rims and tires of a wide set are tailored to your car. A wide set for a BMW 5 is therefore completely different from a wide set for a BMW X6. It is important to choose a wide kit that has been developed for your car type. The AVD can help you choose a suitable wide set.
