17 inch wheels on Aveo

[Matthewscl]

anyone bought the springs and fit only the front?

I am driving a lancer..the front can put 5 fingers!...damn disgusting..

anyway, i am looking for chio chio only..not for performance..hehehhe

[Xiaogary]

Then the front may be too hard and back too soft. Normally lowering spring is harder.

[Matthewscl]

yap..cos i seating infront...i dont wan my wife to complain cos she always sit behind with the children..hehehhe...really very tempted.

 

any springs that can lower to have about 3 fingers infront? i am ok with the gap in the rear...but not the front...

[Xiaogary]

I think u buy those adjustable coilover better.

Can set lower for front and higher for back.

[Matthewscl]

but very rocky leh....my FIL wrx..wah laos...like drive lorry like that...i enjoy the speed & Power but almost vomit by the bumpiness of the ride..hahaha

Very Your FC must be high

[Vtec78]

time to upgrade to BBK for ur car liao. the front brake look too small for ur rim.

[Xiaogary]

I dont see any changes in my FC.

No difference from my 13 inch lorry rim.

Although rims are larger, material is titanium, lighter.

Tyre width 205 is thicker honrizontally but tyre have lower profile 40 thinner side wall.

Overall no difference.

[Robertoon]

For 17inches with 195/40R17 or 205/40R17 will not affect much on the Fc

[Transformers]

Next time you up 18" liao wuhahahahaa

OZ ultraleggs is not made of titanium. Its not even a forged rim. But its one of the lightest cast rims ard.

 

There's a reason why rear is running more negative camber than ur front, dun dabble too much into it b4 u upset the handling of the car. Negative camber increases grip to a certain extent, but i advise u to rotate ur tyres every 5,000km and check ur inner tyre wear often. But Riverside's kenny is quite reputable n knowledgeable here.

 

$140 is not really expensive for 17inch tyres. Since u are using Firenza ST03, i advise u to take it easy in the wet. Heard comments frm public n frens that its not tt grippy in the wet and to make matter's worst, u upsize frm 13inch to 17inch, making it more prone to aquaplaning.

 

Yeah, that's the problem with upsizing too much, it makes ur brakes look puny. Mebbe try looking at other chevrolet/GM range of cars and see if their caliper and discs fit. Better braking at a cheaper price. Fills up the empty spaces too.

 

Do save up for new shocks soon too..lowering springs without matching dampers, wear out real fast.

nice rims

 

[Yzygold]

think 17 on an aevo is a little too big. ur fc may drop unless u buy really light rims

[Desong]

btw dunno whether u guys are aware that chervy are comin out with a hot hatch version..
