Lada Priora is the most popular family of domestic cars today. The model is available in hatchback, sedan and station wagon body styles and belongs to the C class.
The main competitors are budget 4-doors: Renault Logan, ZAZ Chance, Lada Granta and Daewoo Nexia. Lada Priora boasts excellent noise and sound insulation, high-quality finishing and adaptation to Russian conditions. In comparison with “classmates”, it is more repairable, and spare parts for it are cheaper. The domestic product also has disadvantages. The operation of the model’s engine is not always stable; it is sometimes difficult to start it due to problems with the timing, air leaks and sensors. Also, car components are not of high quality.
Despite this, Lada Priora remains one of the most popular cars on the Russian market. In the Caucasus regions, it confidently holds the lead in sales volume. The car is also among the top 5 most stolen models in the country.
Generation 1
Lada Priora is an updated version of the popular VAZ 2110 model, production of which ended in 2007. Over 1,000 changes were made to the design of the “tens,” beloved by many Russians. As a result, a new family of cars appeared, consisting of 3 representatives:
- "VAZ-2170" - a sedan, the production of which began in March 2007;
- “VAZ-2172” is a hatchback that appeared in February 2008;
- "VAZ-2171" is a station wagon, sales of which began in May 2009.
After the modernization of the VAZ-2110, a fundamentally new car appeared that retained the same features. In the first version of the Lada Priora, similarities with the “ten” were clearly visible, but the bow and stern of the car became different. The headlights have increased in size and the radiator grille has become larger. The taillights were also modified, but overall the changes in appearance could not be called global.
If the exterior of the model was developed by specialists from the Volzhsky plant, then the interior was created by designers of the Italian company Carcerano. As a result, he was strikingly different from what he was in the top ten. The front panel looked more like a “torpedo” of a foreign car. It was trimmed with soft plastic, adding a curved visor above the instrument cluster. The interior was complemented by an oval-shaped clock installed in a silver trim at the top of the console.
The basic equipment of Lada Priora has become noticeably richer. It offered electric front windows, central locking with remote control, athermal windows, an airbag, electric power steering, an electronic clock and an adjustable steering column.
The car was available in three trim levels: “Standard”, “Norma” and “Lux”. They differed exclusively in the level of equipment. The model was equipped with 2 types of gasoline units:
- 1.6-liter 8-valve VAZ-21116 engine (90 hp);
- 1.6-liter 16-valve VAZ-21126 engine (98 hp).
Wheel size
The small selection of versions of the Lada Priora model also limited the types of wheels available for use:
- wheels 5.5J on 14 ET37 (5.5 – width in inches, 14 – diameter in inches, 37 – positive offset in mm), tires – 185/65R14 (185 – tire width in mm, 65 – profile height in%, 14 – rim diameter in inches);
- 6J wheels on 14 ET35, tires – 195/60R14;
- 6.5J wheels on 15 ET35, tires – 185/55R15;
- 6.5J wheels on 15 ET35, tires – 195/55R15;
- 6.5J wheels on 16 ET35, tires – 195/50R16.
Other wheel characteristics and tire pressure:
- PCD (drilling) – 4 by 98 (4 is the number of holes, 98 is the diameter of the circle on which they are located in mm);
- fasteners – M12 by 1.25 (12 – stud diameter in mm, 1.25 – thread size);
- diameter of the central hole – 58.6 mm;
- tire pressure – 1.9 bar.
What is a bolt pattern?
4 bolt holes are 4
- The first number “4”
indicated in the parameters indicates the number of holes located on the hub, intended for screwing wheel bolts into them. - The second number “98”
indicates the diameter in millimeters of the circle in which those same mounting bolts are located.
Wheels from Logan (bolt pattern 4*100)
Based on safety requirements, wheels with such a bolt pattern cannot be installed on a VAZ-2112. But, some drivers use spacers or eccentric bolts
install such disks.
When choosing rims, the owner must pay close attention not only to the diameter of the rim, its weight and design, but also to important technical parameters. One of the key parameters for the compatibility of the wheel and the vehicle design is the bolt pattern.
This component is a value (the typical value for the vast majority of VAZ cars is 4/98) that determines the number of mounting holes (the first indicator) and the diameter of the circle of the distance between the holes (accordingly, the second indicator).
What wheels were installed on different versions of the car?
The design of the Lada Priora is more similar to the popular VAZ 2110 (ten), mass production of which was completed in 2008. More than 100 changes were made to the top ten, after which three new modifications of the car were created:
These are, respectively, a sedan, a hatchback, and a station wagon, manufactured after 2008–2009. Equipment: “Standard”, “Normal” and “Lux”, depending on finishing materials, additional options, and power of the power unit.

It is equally important to know the following characteristics:
- PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) diameter of the center of the mounting holes: 97 mm;
- Drilling: number of holes 4;
- Fastener type: M12 – stud diameter;
- Thread size (pitch): 1.25;
- Center hole diameter: 59 mm;
- Pressure (front / rear): 1.9 / 2.0 bar.
PCD is calculated by measuring the distance between the centers of opposite holes. We measure with a ruler; it is not necessary to dismantle the wheel.
- For disks with five bolts, multiply the obtained result by a factor of 1.06;
- For four bolt construction, PCD = actual distance.
The offset of the rim is designated ET, the unit of measurement is millimeters. This is the distance between the point of contact between the disc and the hub and the middle of the rim width.
The designation is different in different countries. For example, in France it is called DEPORT, in Asia OFFSET.
The offset is positive if the plane does not extend beyond the point of contact, otherwise the offset is negative.

What kind of disks can be installed?
The size of wheels, tires, disks that are installed on a car have a direct impact on its technical characteristics. In the instruction manual, the manufacturer indicates the recommended dimensions, as well as acceptable ones.
The owner of the vehicle, in our case Lada Priora, independently decides what type and size of wheels and tires to install. For the average driver who uses the car as a means of transportation to and from work, the factory rim sizes are more than enough.
In case of tuning, changes in standard characteristics, dynamic indicators, it is necessary to refit the car with non-standard wheel sizes.
List of characteristics that can be changed by installing non-standard wheel sizes:
- Controllability;
- Road grip;
- Sharp and responsive steering wheel;
- Reduced/increased aquaplaning;
- Comfort of movement;
- Noise level;
- Combined cycle fuel consumption (see photo);
- Tread wear rate.
Options
For the entire time when the Lada Priora car was produced, all the parameters and characteristics of the wheel rims remained unchanged. Drilling for disks, regardless of the method of their manufacture, size and design, is the same.
To guess with a new set of wheels, you need to know the following data:
- Rim diameter, the size of which is indicated in inches;
- Wheel rim width, also measured in inches;
- Reach, millimeter measurement system;
- The number of drilled holes for fastening with bolts is drilling;
- The hole for installing the hub, as well as its diameter. Denoted as DIA. The measurement system is also millimeter.
Important!
If you know all the listed parameters, it is almost impossible to make a mistake when selecting disks.
Priora's bolt pattern:
- The number of mounting holes and the diameter of their location circle is 4*98;
- The diameter of the hub or central hole of the machine is 58.6 millimeters;
- Rim diameter - 14 inches;
- Rim offset - 37-35 millimeters;
- Recommended width is 5.5 or 6.0 inches;
Also, as an alternative, there are special tables for determining the drilling parameters of any Lada car. They provide all the information on the declared dimensions and parameters for cars of all models and modifications.
This table allows you to determine the sizes and parameters of wheels for the Lada Priora in various trim levels and versions.

Recommendations for storing and caring for discs
- During a routine technical inspection, check the geometry and balancing of the wheel on a special diagnostic stand. If deviations are detected, restore the integrity of the structure;
- If cracks or dents form on the rim, immediately contact a service station for preventive maintenance;
- Avoid hitting road potholes at high and medium speeds. Regardless of the material or workmanship, the disk will be deformed and the seal will be compromised;
- Monitor the tire pressure; it should not be lower/higher than recommended by the manufacturer. If it deviates, pump it up;
- Switch to summer/winter mode in a timely manner. This means that in summer the tire pressure is 0.15 atm higher, and in winter it is lower by the same amount. The parameters are specified in the vehicle operating instructions;
- Tighten the rim nuts with a torque wrench. Excessive tightening contributes to the breakage of the studs, weak - an emergency situation, unscrewing the wheel.
In dry, sunny weather, cast aluminum wheels are least susceptible to external damage. But in slush, ice, when the road is strewn with various chemicals, the rim is most susceptible to corrosion. This provokes paint peeling and destruction of the molecular composition.
Wash your wheels as they get dirty. Since it is unlikely that you can clean it properly with a rag, use high-pressure compressors. Equipment of this class is available at many service stations, workshops, and service centers.
Systematic polishing allows you to get rid of scratches and burrs. First clean the wheel from dirt, dry it thoroughly, and then treat it with a chemical. Wipe several times with a microfiber cloth.
