Detailed compatibility for this stainless steel rim jawa
This 18×2.15 rim is the standard and most widely used size for the later series of heavy, twin-cylinder Jawa and ČZ motorcycles. It fits seamlessly on the following models:
Jawa 350 Family:
-
Jawa 350 Type 634 (all modifications manufactured from 1973 to 1984) – the legendary “Six”.
-
Jawa 350 Type 638 (1984–1994) – the iconic “Penalka” and “Lux” models.
-
Jawa 350 Type 639 (1984–1994) – modification featuring a front disc brake.
-
Jawa 350 Type 640 (from 1991 onwards) – classic Style and Tramper series.
Rare and Transition Jawa Models:
-
Jawa 250 Type 623 / 350 Type 633 “Bizon” (1970–1972) – distinct models with a backbone frame architecture.
-
Jawa 350 Type 362 Californian – dedicated export versions equipped with 18-inch wheels (distinct from standard 16-inch “Kývacka”/”Panelka” models).
ČZ (Cezet) Motorcycles: Due to close manufacturing cooperation between factories, this rim size was natively used on Czechoslovakian street models:
-
ČZ 250 Type 471 (1974–1981) – twin-cylinder 250cc model.
-
ČZ 350 Type 472 (1976–1989) – highly popular 12-volt Cezet model.

Important Geometry & Assembly Note
Spoke Selection Warning: Although this 18×2.15 rim is geometrically identical and fully interchangeable across all the models listed above, you must carefully consider your specific hub (“drum”) type when selecting spokes. The wheel hubs on the Jawa 634 (early variants), Jawa 638 (“snowflake/star” pattern), and ČZ 472 are visually and structurally distinct. This directly alters the required spoke lengths and bend angles, even though the outer rim itself remains completely standard.
