13 inch 155 / 80 midget rostyles

Post by oldmod1968 »

Hi,

Can anyone give me an idea of the effect of running these smaller wheels. I know it lowers thre gearing but will the top speed be significantly changed or is it just a few miles an hour. I tend to drive at 50/60 on a roads. thanks Chris

Hi Chris, I ran with these 13" wheels years ago and from memory the acceleration was slightly improved but the top speed was still around the same. Think I managed to still cruise at about 65-70 mph. Hope that helps

You will still manage 50/60mph without any problems.
