Larger Wheels on Voyager

[frjeff]

Brand new here an just purchased a used (brand and model exact) standard Voyager kit for my Aero.
Has anyone ever switched Voyager wheels from the standard 13" to larger. Very happy with my buy price and quality wise. Just wonder how big a task it is to do the wheel switch.

How much fender clearance do you have? Finding the right bolt pattern wheels and then mounting tires on them. .

Unit not here yet. Being shipped. I'd say 2-3 inch clearance is there. Might also be able to raise fenders if necessary. Was mainly hoping it was a wheel swap as you say and not a full hub change. Looks like the kit wheel specs are GM 100mm 5 lug.

I would think the unit would require a lot of revision to allow "bigger" wheels. The mounting would have to be raised!
Why would you want bigger wheels??

Once you home in on diameter, width, backset and lug patten, I had good luck finding what I needed at: http://www.summitracing.com/ . If you can't find what your looking for, or need advice, a friend told me their customer service was very helpful via phone.

Y R you thinking the Voyager wheels should be larger. Mine were plenty big enough.
they are not low profile they are good size tires.rims are 13" not tires.

John,

Good point. Not sure I'll do the swap, but the current original 13's have a fair amount of surface rust. Unless they'll clean clean up nicely, I'll at least want new rims. If no real advantage to have larger, I'll stay with 13's.

If I am not mistaken they are only 4 bolt rims. Not many choices.

I installed cavalier 16 inch rims using 195/50R-16 tires. The ride is so much better and made it handle a lot better

@ron54 what size did you previously have on your voyager kit?
