Anyone knows that wheels are designed not only for the movement of the car, but also for its stylistic addition in order to create a strict appearance. The Hyundai Kreta is a Korean crossover that is suitable for urban and off-road driving, so a stylish and functional look is considered an important component.

The car stands out among the total mass of proposals for its technical features and the ability to complement the appearance with the help of non-standard wheels, moldings and similar decorative and functional elements.

The main types of discs for a car

As standard, the Hyundai Creta car is supplemented with standard 16-radius wheels. Many owners do not change the base radius, believing that the replacement only negatively affects the technical properties of the car. In fact, this is a real myth, because if you carefully choose a tire, it will only improve the ergonomic properties of the car. When choosing, it is worth considering the following technical parameters of the standard version, so as not to encounter inconveniences during further use:

• Razboltovaya - 5 * 114.3.
• Width in the range of 6.0-6.5J.
• Departure 45-48 points ET.
• Centering hole 67.1.

If original discs are purchased, then they must be in a cardboard factory box with the appropriate marking. In the absence of such nuances, there is a likelihood of acquiring a low-quality fake, which will not provide convenience when operating a car. It is better to trust professional stores, which guarantee the authenticity and perfect technical qualities of the products offered.

Discs 17 radius - this is a relatively non-standard option, but the quality guarantees driving comfort. When choosing, it is important to take into account the following parameters that the wheels must meet:

• Razboltovaya discs 17 - 5 * 114.3.
• Working reach - ЕТ45-48.
• The size of the hub is 67.1.

As a rule, this type of disc is provided by manufacturers in a complete set of a car with all-wheel drive (4 × 4), so each buyer of this option can expect the possibility of comfortable installation of both standard and wide-profile tires.

Wide-format R17 alloy wheels on Hyundai Kreta are distinguished by their strength, technical durability and reliability. Durability combined with attractiveness are another couple of benefits. When choosing, it is worth considering the following recommendations in order to exclude the purchase of a low-quality product:

• You can purchase alloy wheels not only from the original manufacturer, but also from other companies, namely Tech Line, Skad, Nitro. The combination of favorable cost and quality allows you not to feel the difference when using the car.
• If there is no need for savings, then you can consider discs from Mak, Oz, Borbet, Enkei. The use of super-quality raw materials eliminates technical inconveniences during operation.
• In addition to the original discs, high quality replicas are provided. These are original analogs, created using the same technology and from the same raw materials, but with additional components, which is not reflected in the technical parameters.

Important! Non-standard discs can be used for summer tires, but for winter tires, experts recommend only standard models in order to avoid inconvenience when driving in difficult road conditions.

Technical specifications

• Disc bolting is a parameter that determines the main technical parameters of the bolts used to equip the discs. The information allows you to select the correct replacement bolts.
• Reach is a measure of the distance between the attachment surface to the vehicle hub. In fact, this is the size of the inner rim.
• The center hole is a measure of the diameter of the main mounting hole to be able to choose the most suitable option for mounting.
• Diameter is a radius that tells about the size of the disc to fit perfectly with the wheel.
• Width is a geometric indicator that must be adhered to in order to properly mount the disc in the tire.

Wheel sizes for Hyundai Creta

Wheel sizes play an important role in the functioning of the car and its style. Manufacturers provide different models, so it is important to pay attention to all the accompanying features.

Wheel parameters that are considered universal for all modifications of the Hyundai Creta car:

• 0 "- 17.0" are standard disc diameters.
• 0 "- 6.5" are standard widths.
• 48-50 (mm) - disc height options.
• 5х114.3 (mm) - product drilling.

Important! Discs must be suitable for the tire size. A deviation from the established norm is allowed from 3% to 6%. These are the minimum and maximum possible indicators, which it is important to adhere to in order to avoid technical inconveniences.

It is important to take into account the factory parameters of the wheels for Hyundai Creta, in order to know what to focus on when choosing:

Disc selection criteria

It is necessary to select discs for a vehicle taking into account absolutely all technical parameters. In addition, it is important to select products in terms of reach and size, as well as bolt pattern (drilling).

• You can use classic stamped or cast 205/65 R16. This is short for 6.5 * 16ET45. This is an indicator of the radius of the disc, its width and offset. Detailed consideration allows you to get the appropriate technical advice when choosing.
• Cast models such as 205/65 R17 are suitable. 6.5 * 17 ET48 is the marking of the product, where the rim is 17. And also the radius of the disc and the indicators of its departure are presented here.

But when choosing, it is important to take into account the general parameters on which the technical side of the disc depends. Namely:

• drilling (PCD) should be 5 * 114.3;
• centering hole - 67.1 mm;
• M12 * 1.5 are indicators for fastening nuts.

It is necessary to select the diameters of the mounting holes, which makes it much easier to cope with the installation of disks into tires. It is important to choose the right wheels in accordance with this parameter, since this is the only way to count on the quality, practicality, reliability and ease of fastening tires. Additionally, you can look at the photos on the Internet to understand how the discs should look.

For Hyundai Creta cars, the standard drilling parameter is 5 * 114.3. This parameter must be taken into account when choosing new fastening bolts in order to avoid any difficulties when using the car.

As a result, it should be said that if the motorist appreciates the refinement of the car and wants to "pump" his Hyundai Creta, then you can pick up non-standard bolts. But it is important to take into account the technical parameters of the car and the general recommendations of the manufacturers in order to avoid inconvenience when driving.

Hyundai Creta ("Creta" or sometimes "Greta") is a popular compact crossover, launched in production in 2014, but for Russia the car was first presented only at the Moscow Motor Show 2016. Since then, more than 30 thousand of these cars have been sold in Russia , and many of those owners who love tuning, immediately thought about changing the rims. But the parameters of the "casting" can be different, so you need to know which wheels to buy.

Hyundai Greta is equipped with discs that are at least 16 inches in size. There are even cars with a wheel radius of R17. Which wheels are installed on this crossover depends on the configuration:

• Start and Active - forged steel wheels with a radius of 16 inches with tires 205/65 R16;
• Comfort and Travel - light-alloy wheels with a radius of 16 inches with tires 205/65 R16 and a full-size spare wheel R16.

Note!

Alloy 17-inch wheels with 215/60 R17 tires are available only when ordering the Travel package together with the Style package for 75 thousand rubles. * In this case, the spare wheel will be R16.

Thus, the original disks for "Cretu" can be of 3 types:

• R16 stamped;
• R16 light alloy;
• R17 light alloy.

Each version of the car has its own wheel sizes, so it is recommended to take into account the basic parameters when tuning. This is about:

• diameter (R);
• bolt pattern (PCD);
• departure (ET).

The bolt parameter includes the following information:

• How many bolts are needed to secure the disc to the hub.
• What is the diameter of the circle on which the bolts are located?

For Hyundai, a bolt pattern of 5 by 114.3 is used.

Car lovers often do not attach importance to the departure, because, in principle, it does not in any way affect the movement of the car, especially when it comes to replacing disks with a specific model.

What is departure? This is the distance (in millimeters) from the center of the disc to the plane that the hub contacts.

Hyundai Creta car

The car brand in question has an offset for R16 - ET45, and for R17 - ET48.

Car enthusiasts are first of all ready to change the wheels of their crossover when tuning, so it is worth considering the above parameters. Particularly often "stamping" changes, as the appearance of the wheels leaves much to be desired. On the "Crete" stamped discs come from the factory together with decorative caps, which somewhat improve the appearance of the car, but many owners still want to put on the "casting". At the same time, drivers want to further improve the ride quality of their crossover, in which the wheels are far from last.

There are common dimensions for all Hyundai castings. This applies to both R16 and R17 wheels. The central hole is 67.1 in diameter. M12 x 1.5 nuts are used.

Native original discs on Hyundai Creta

Discs for "Cretu" can be bought from an authorized dealer, as well as in car dealerships, but whether they will be original there is still a question.

Original alloy wheels for Hyundai Creta:

• Reliable. They are made using a durable material that is resistant to rust. If the paintwork is damaged, a film of oxides appears on the surface, which protects the aluminum alloy from corrosion. Reliability is guaranteed because the wheel is factory tested in several stages.
• Manufactured using modern technology. The metal is first prepared, only then a decorative coating is applied using nanotechnology, when the molecules themselves are evenly distributed over the surface. The layer is only one molecule thick, which improves the adhesion of varnish and paint coatings.
• They serve for a long time. Terms are measured in years. Discs can be used for 20 years. When sold, a lifetime warranty is provided for the wheel and metal product. If you follow the rules for operating a car, then cracks and chips do not appear on the disks.
• They weigh little. Due to the light weight of the wheels, nothing prevents the car from accelerating to high speeds, while the car is easier to drive, it drives smoothly.

The castings installed at the factory are popular with many Kreta owners, as they have a modern design with five split spokes. Usually they change the "stamping" that goes by default in the first two trim levels for both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive cars.

There are also some car enthusiasts who want large rollers starting from 18 inches. You will not be able to order them from an authorized dealer, since such a size for "Cretu" is simply not provided by the manufacturer.

The owner of "Creta", who decides to install wheels with a radius of 18 inches or more, on the car, must understand that he will lose the warranty (if it is still valid), since changing spare parts to non-original ones is considered sufficient reason for the dealer not to repair the car under warranty cases.

As for the original wheels for the Hyundai Creta, you can buy one of four options. In this case, the kit will be either 16 or 17 inches. The appearance has several differences, the color is also different: silver and black-silver. But there are no fundamental differences, there are the same double knitting needles.

4 alloy wheel options (all black):

• "Platinum" 16 inches at a price of 5400 rubles.
• "Platinum" 17 inches at a price of 6150 rubles.
• "Diamond" 16 inches at a price of 5700 rubles.
• "Diamond" 17 inches at a price of 6400 rubles.

Parameters and sizes of autodisks on "Cretu"

For Hyundai Greta, the disk parameters may be different. Running sizes - R16 and R17.

R16

On Russian roads "Cretas" drive more often with wheels of this size. If you want to change disks, you need to take into account several unchanged parameters:

• Razorovka - 5 to 114.3.
• Ride width is between 6.0 and 6.5 (in inches).
• Departure - between 45 and 48 (in millimeters).
• Center hole - 67.1 (in millimeters)

Original products are sold from dealers who represent the Korean company in Russia. Discs can be stamped or cast.

You can also buy discs at car dealerships, on websites, through advertisements. Only in this case there is no guarantee that the products will be original. There are especially many fakes from China, while outwardly they may look like the original, but have internal defects that will lead to a quick breakdown of the wheel.

Genuine products are sold in packaging and do not include mounting bolts. They need to be purchased separately. The packaging is a cardboard box of undefined shape. It has a blue label. The spare part number is also indicated.

On any original disc, a number is clearly visible, which makes it possible to understand the name of the manufacturer, and also whether this wheel can be used for a particular car.

R17

This "casting" is more rare. Installed on those crossovers that are all-wheel drive.

Below are the main options for 17-inch wheels for Hyundai:

• Replicas. This is the most popular option that allows you to buy not only R16, but also R17 wheels. In this case, the departure will be either standard by 46 or 48, or increased by 51 or 54 millimeters. The cost is more than 5 thousand rubles per wheel.
• Products of famous world manufacturers: "Tech", "Line", "Nitro". Cost - no more than 6 thousand rubles. a piece. At the same time, the quality corresponds to the price.
• Original. If the driver can afford not to save, then you can order the Style package when buying a car. The disadvantage of this option is not only the high price, but also the fact that for the Start, Active and Comfort trim levels it is not possible to purchase a car with R17 wheels.
• Used wheels... The most dangerous option. Its only plus is that it will be possible to save a lot, but the disks can be deformed, so before buying them you need to check them very carefully for possible defects and wear.

How to choose the right alloy wheels for Hyundai Creta

It will not be difficult to select wheels for "Cretu", since the model is new, there is no variation in the parameters of the wheels, as often happens with car brands that have changed more than one generation. However, when choosing a "casting", you still need to take into account several nuances:

• The product must have a quality certificate. All original alloy wheels are X-rayed.
• You need to purchase either a complete set or a separate disc that exactly matches the parameters of the wheel that needs to be replaced. If discs of different diameter or offset are installed on the car, then the owner not only risks getting a fine, he may also get into an emergency.
• You need to buy products only from trusted and reliable sellers, otherwise there is a high probability of acquiring a fake of disgusting quality.
• You need to pay attention to the maximum load for which the "casting" is designed.
• Better not to buy heavy discs. Heavy wheels have more unsprung masses, which leads to additional stress on the suspension and a deterioration in the ride of the machine. Heavy weight has a negative effect on acceleration and braking dynamics.

After changing wheels, you need to take precautions to test drive the new discs in order to understand how the car's behavior has changed.

Note!

It is more profitable to purchase 2 sets of wheels at once, so that later you do not spend money on seasonal “overfitting”. In addition, it will be possible to preserve the good appearance of the disks for a longer time, because often in the process of changing the rubber they are scratched, which eventually leads to corrosion.

The most optimal options for "casting" on "Cretu":

• Trinity (R16) from K&K. Color - black with light stripes on each of the 5 spokes. Price - 4490 r.
• X-112 (R16) by X Trike. Design - 5 split needles with black stripes. Price - 3410 r.
• 642 (R16) from Neo. There are also 5 bifurcated jumpers, but their design is such that visually the wheel looks like a 10-spoke. Price - 4010 p.
• SH650 (R17) from NZ. Original design with curved needles. The discs look massive. Price - 4540 rubles.
• "Admiral" (R17) from the SKAD. Traditional 5-spoke design. There is only one color - silver. Price - 4840 rubles.

Choosing "casting" for your car, you need to take into account the size of the wheel and the value of the offset. When installing wheels, remember that rubber is purchased in accordance with the parameters of the disc. It is important to know that there is “stamping”, which is distinguished by reliability, high weight and unpresentable appearance, and light-alloy products, which often have an original design, low weight and a higher price compared to steel discs.

Among all aspects of the Korean car, I would like to separately highlight the tires on the Hyundai Creta. This is what we will talk about in today's article.

The main supplier of tires for Hyundai Greta is Nexon. Also, experts recommend turning to the products of such manufacturers as DUNLOP, HANKOOK, MICHELIN, BRIDGESTONE, NOKIAN. Each type of tire has its own advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, when choosing a "shoe" you need to build on the recommendations of experts and consult with experienced motorists.

HyundaiCreta standard wheels:

6.0Jx16 5 × 114.3 ET43 M12x1.5 67.1 (stamped and cast)
tires 205 / 65R16 95H and also fit 215/65 R16

6.5Jx17 5 × 114.3 ET48 M12x1.5 67.1 (cast)
tires 215 / 60R17 96H

The cost of "shoes" also depends on the manufacturer. Analysis of the domestic market showed that the price of one element fluctuates in the range of 5,000-10,000 rubles.

Wheels and tires

Immediately, we note that Creta tires may differ from each other, depending on the configuration and the manufacturer. And the Russian modification of the Korean crossover is generally equipped with authentic elements that surpass the Indian and Chinese versions in many parameters. Here we note that the differences between the modifications can be of a more global nature. For example, the difference in the design of the motors or the exhaust system.

Naturally, the factory wheels of Hyundai Creta also have some differences. The top-end equipment of the Korean crossover is equipped with 17-inch elements. In all other versions, you can find discs with a size of 16 inches. It should be noted that the wheels differ not only in size, but also in appearance. Developers pay a lot of attention to design, so motorists can count on a wide range.

Hyundai Kreta tires have special markings that carry all the necessary information about the elements. It consists of the following aspects:

• Model name.
• Item width in millimeters.
• Profile height expressed as a percentage.
• Rim diameter expressed in inches.
• Load and speed indices.
• Type of construction (eg radial).
• Additional characteristics (for example, designed for slush and snow).
• Critical load and pressure indicators.
• Camera type.
• Design features.
• Manufacturer's company name.

Influence of tire size

As strange as it may sound, tires are the "shoe" of a car, and they directly affect its character and dynamism. In addition, the approach to the operation of the elements depends on their design features. It's no secret that tires also play an important role in the overall safety of a car. Hyundai Creta is equipped with elements of two sizes - these are 16 and 17-inch elements. Experts recommend using factory tires, as they have all passed special tests and tests, which have confirmed their suitability for high loads.

As practice shows, regular tires on Hyundai Creta feel great on Russian roads and do an excellent job with the tasks set. From the reviews of the real owners of the SUV it was possible to find out that the "shoe" meets all the technical specifications. But, even with this in mind, it is important to remember that sooner or later it is necessary to replace tires. After all, they wear out, even with proper operation. Experts recommend replacing the elements at the beginning of each new season. Although this aspect should be considered by every car owner, depending on the intensity of vehicle operation and the level of loads.

Tire pressure Creta

Creta tires can boast quite usual pressure indicators - 2.3 + 0.7 kg / cm2. This is true for both 16 "and 17" elements. This moment is very important, so experts advise you to check this parameter before buying a car. Missing something can negatively impact ride comfort in the long run. By the way, the pressure level is checked with a pressure gauge.

Regardless of the type of equipment, the car is equipped with wheel pressure sensors. Their principle of operation is as follows: each wheel is equipped with a radio sensor connected to a receiver mounted in the torpedo. Any violations of the pressure indicator are immediately displayed on the instrument panel, in the form of an illuminated light bulb. If it starts flashing, then either the pressure is very different from the norm, or there is a hole in the wheel, and it is approaching zero.

The standard sensor used in the base crossover configuration does its job well. But the Korean developers decided to go even further and equipped the car with a special SV panel. Its functionality allows you to display in real time all indicators of the technical condition of the car, including the pressure level in each wheel.

However, some problems can be associated with the pressure sensor. For example, if a car owner installs a new set of tires, this may lead to the fact that he will cease to perform his functions, or will constantly give an error. Even if the tire pressure is correct, it will not improve the situation in any way. Therefore, it is better to replace tires in an official workshop.

If you nevertheless independently carried out a tire change for the Hyundai Creta and the light on the dashboard is permanently on, then there are two effective ways to get rid of a false error. The first is to replace the rubber again, but this time more carefully. The fact is that the sensors are very delicate and can fail even with the slightest mechanical contact.

The second method is simpler and more affordable. It provides for the purchase of new Chinese sensors that should satisfy the system. As an alternative - "firmware" of the same system. It is much cheaper, but it is better to trust this operation to experienced specialists. Since self-intervention can only aggravate the situation.

Output

Tires on Hyundai Kreta: the normal pressure level is considered to be 2.3 + 0.7 kg / cm2. Creta tires are of high quality, but like everyone else, they wear out sooner or later - experts recommend replacing them once a season. Here we note that the Hyundai Greta tires are equipped with special pressure sensors that help the driver to control this aspect. A wider set of possibilities appears after the installation of the SV panel - the driver, at any moment in time, can see the pressure indicator in each wheel, and in time identify deviations from the norm.

As one friend of mine, a comrade outbid, says, disks in any car are 50% of its appearance.

I imagine it a little differently. Wheels for a car are like shoes for a person. Correctly selected and high quality footwear makes its owner stylish and fashionable. Just like car rims can significantly improve the ego exterior, making it modern, fashionable and charismatic.

So what about the Korean crossover? Hyundai Creta wheels are either 16 inches or 17, stamped or cast - depending on the configuration and optional packages. Let's take a closer look at each of them.

Hyundai Creta stamped discs are installed only on the simplest configurations - Start and Active. In essence, these are simple steel discs, which are made under the motto "if only it was". This "miracle" looks like this:

Immediately from the factory, plastic caps are placed on the steel wheels of the Hyundai Creta to make it all look at least somehow appropriate. These discs are 16 "in diameter and painted in traditional black.

By the way, the black color of the disks visually reduces their size.

Hyundai Creta steel wheels 16 ″ price

Many are interested in how much steel wheels cost on Hyundai Creta. Let's figure it out. First, let's try to find the original disc through the spare parts catalogs. For this we will use the free catalog elcats.ru. To do this, you only need to register on the site. But that's not a problem, is it? We enter the catalog, select the required car and find the CHASSIS section. In this section we are interested in the group [50-529] WHEEL AND WHEEL CAP. This is how it all looks:

We select on the diagram what interests us and see the article. For 16 "it will be 52910-M0000, and for 17" it will be 52910-M0050.

For these articles, you can order the original steel wheel rim on the Hyundai Creta. To upgrade the disk, you can go to any online store of spare parts available in your city. We will have it Exist. We enter the article into the search and see the price of the spare part under this number. In our case, a 16 ″ disk will cost 5912 rubles with delivery in 8 days, and for 17 ″ - 5459 rubles with delivery in 6 days.

Naturally, these discs are overpriced as they are original. But if you really need to buy, for example, one such disc, then it is quite possible.

If you are not a supporter of original spare parts or are simply not ready to pay exorbitant prices for them, then you can pick up steel wheels in specialized stores. In our city this is Siberia Wheel. We go to their website and enter the parameters of our car. And we see this list of suitable disks:

In fact, there were more of them - about 10 options, but they all have a similar appearance and do not differ much in price, so we will not touch on them in our article.

In terms of prices, the cheapest steel disc in this online store costs 1,580 rubles. per piece, and the most expensive - 2200 rubles. The colors are black and silver. The main difference is in the manufacturer and the quality of the product. Higher quality steel is usually used in expensive wheels. The quality of the painting is also important.

Alloy wheels Hyundai Creta, or as they are also called light-alloy marketers, look more presentable than steel. But the price of such discs is much higher. From the factory, alloy wheels on Hyundai Creta are supplied in two trim levels - Comfort and Travel. These are 16 ″ alloy wheels. Alloy wheels are also available in the optional Style package. In this case, the car will be equipped with 17 ″ discs.

The price of alloy wheels for Hyundai Creta

As in the case of stamped, alloy wheels can be bought as original and analogs. The main thing is to choose the right size of disks. In the first case, we can use either the services of a dealer and order "casting" from him. Or buy discs on the Internet yourself. To purchase online, you can use the articles:

52910-M0100 - 16 ″ disk
52910-M0200 - 17 ″ disk

True, the price for a disc will not please you - from 20 to 36 thousand for one piece. In this case, it is possible to use a regular online store selling tires and wheels and order a ready-made kit and keep within exactly the same amount of money.

The cheapest "casting" in SibirKoles will cost 2360 rubles per disc, and the most expensive - 9400 rubles / piece.

Hyundai Creta wheel size

Probably, this paragraph should have started our article, but I got so carried away by studying online stores that I completely forgot about it. Of course, the size of the Hyundai Creta rims is one of the important points to consider when choosing and buying wheels.

As I wrote above, the parameters of the disks depend on the vehicle configuration. The Start and Active trims have 16 "stamped wheels, while the Comfort and Travel trims have 16" light-alloy wheels. 17 "wheels are also available, but only in the Style Pack.

Thus, the “ex-factory” Cretu can be found on disks of the following sizes:
- R16 steel;
- R16 light alloy;
- R17 light alloy.

In addition to the size of the disc itself, when replacing wheels, other parameters should be taken into account, such as drilling, overhang, disc width and DPC. Let's take a closer look at them.

Drilling. This is the number of holes and the distance between them. Crete has five holes for mounting bolts, and the drilling itself is 5x114.3.

Disc overhang is the distance from the hub to the disc surface. In other words, this is the value of the disc offset away from the hub. For Creta, it is ET45 for 16-inch wheels and ET48 for 17-inch wheels.

The disc width of the Hyundai Creta is between 6.0 and 6.5J.

And finally, the DLC (diameter of the central hole) is 67.1 mm.

Thus, the standard wheel rim on the Hyundai Creta must meet the parameters:

R16 / 5х114.3 / ET45 / 6.0J / 67.1
R17 / 5х114.3 / ET48 / 6.5J / 67.1

As you can see, the most important parameters are radius, RPC and drill. The width and offset of the disc can be changed up or down.

We have already written about the price and parameters of the original rims on the Hyundai Creta. For now, let's just leave a photo here so that you understand how it all looks in reality.

The most optimal options for alloy wheels on Hyundai Cretu:

K&K Spider Dark Platinum R16. Color - dark, 10 spokes. Price 4950 p.

X-trike X-116 BK / FP 27461 R16. Black base color and white stripes on the needles. Total 5 split needles with white stripes. Price - 4500 r.

NZ SH665 BKF R16. Original design with curved spokes. Discs look aggressive and stylish .. Price 5050 p. per disk.

Of course, these are just the main options that only I liked. However, my taste may differ from yours, so make your own choice. The main thing is not to forget to take into account the required and recommended sizes of Hyundai Creta wheels. All the world and see you soon on our website!
