Can I fit bigger wheels and tyres to my car?
Can I fit bigger wheels and tyres to my car?
July 27, 2021
Low-profile tyres on large-diameter wheels look great, but they can place you in trouble with the law
Like the shoes you wear, upgrading the wheels and tyres on your car is a simple way to dress up its appearance and improve vehicle dynamics.
Without any laws preventing you from sliding down the red carpet wearing a pair of Yeezys, strolling along the beach in Gucci loafers or flip-flopping to the shops in your Havanas, only the fashion police can pull you up for going too far.

The original roundabout in Northcote was built in 2018 at the centre of a $400,000 project. It was later removed to make way for a water infrastructure upgrade, but is now being replaced.
Tax and ratepayers have forked out $600,000 for a roundabout to be built on Auckland’s North Shore, twice. Council-controlled Auckland Transport first built the roundabout on Ocean View Road in 2018. Construction of the roundabout cost about $400,000, costs which also included traffic management, speed tables and pavement work as part of the Northcote Safe Cycle Route. But that roundabout was recently demolished – to allow the construction of a water main which will serve the Northcote Development, a major Government housing project just over 100 metres away.
