Thank you very much for the basic lessons about rim and tires,brother Smiley  Could you please suggest me a best rim size (15 inches with JxET and Dia ) and one best suitable tire and size. I am planning to purchase one. I bought my Baleno in 2004 with 13 inches alloys as stock....In India(especially my state) roads are in a very bad condition. I think that's why suzuki fitted 13 inch alloys in Baleno with high profile tyres for not to harm the rim. please advice Smiley

One more thing, Is there any advantage ( not looks) if I fit the 15 inches instead of 13 inches? I mean any increase in acceleration(or loss), road grip? and what about the ground clearence?

Well standard over here they come as 15" with 195/55 And off set 35-45 ET, So this is a good guideline. But the lower profile you have will give you extra firmness because it gives you less flex in the sude walls as there smaller/stronger.
With 15" you will also get increased width when ever your wheel gets larger in Diameter so this is going to give you extra grip and stability. Should be fine with acceleration as they with 15" from Suzuki UK.
Personally id save up a little and go to your Motor/wheel shop and buy NEW once you tell them what car you have you can select from a load of wheels that are going to fit on no problems and can choose what tyres your want and ready to fit when they arrive. Mine cost me £400 with TOYO tyres.

Thanks dude, for your detailed description Smiley Today, I visited some of the Car accessory shops near my city and found few alloys 15 inches and 14 inches....cool designs Smiley 2006 onwards Baleno vxi comes with 14 inches as stock alloys. The shop keeper told me that 15 inches alloys are not good for Indian roads. so I wish to check with some more shops for the opinion. Anyway love the way you explained...Thanks a lot.
