Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Mitch - 10-11-2013

Got some 16" ouragans, 205/45/16's, main question is what size spacers do people usually run with these? i can get hold of some 15mm's off a mate but unsure if they'd be too big or not? And am i right in saying a standard cyclone bolt is 37mm?

depends which offset wheels you have, there's ET28 and ET20.

If they are the ouragans from a 406 then no spacers are required

You can get away with no spacers if your beam is in very good nick.

I'd use 15/20mm spacers on the back and 10mm on the front to get them sitting nicely.


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Mitch - 11-11-2013

Well they are ouragans, not sure what from though, definitely not a chance in them going on the back, may do of I cut some of the plastic linings out but still would be very very close, I had some a couple of years ago, they had 195's on though and fit fine, so if I use the 15mms and get some 55mm extended bolts?


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - welshpug - 11-11-2013

look at the offset marking on the rear of the spokes, they are all stamped ouragan, some are ET28 (off a 206) and some ET20 (off a 406)


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Mitch - 11-11-2013

Just been and looked they are 28's, so I'll have to use the 15mm spacers, cyclone bolt is 37mm so I may as well get some 55mm bolts?


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Curt - 11-11-2013

I ran mine with 15mm spacers, that was with 195/45/16s though.


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Frosty - 11-11-2013

Would 20mm spacers be to big for nimrods?


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - Mitch - 11-11-2013

Think you'd just get away with 20's to be honest

If there all stamped ouragon? Why are nimrods called nimrods? Lol

I no there different that the bolt holes are larger on ouragon's well so it said in Google when I was looking in to it

No idea!! I have never seen a wheel with Nimrod cast into it, nor will you find one on servicebox.

All the bolt holes are the same anyway, they have the later tye bolt with a taper under the head so that the cars can use a standard taper seat steel spare wheel.

On that thread that's were it told me about the bolt holes


RE: Nimrod/ouragan spacer's/bolt sizes? - welshpug - 12-11-2013

"look" bigger, they aren't, also the single wheel picture is of the 14" version so it will look different, especially with the plastic wheel bolt covers.
