Thanks all, I think go malaysia change better and cheaper haha the prices here are all super high. About 800 just for tyres and rims are 950 almost 2k for all. Malaysia is about 1.3k for good tyres and brand new rims

What rims you getting? I'm also shopping

Hi All, I am planning to upgrade my current 17" to 18" Rims. Anyone knows which are the most budget and reliable tyre brands that I can get? I mean overall including the Rims as well. I am planning not to go beyond 1k as my budget is below 1k for everything. Hopefully anyone can help recommend any great workshop out there that can accommodate my budget for now... Thanks in advance!

Below 1k can only get used rims.

Budget tyres can try Giti Sport or Falken FK520.

@boonhat_91 Thinking about TE37 or some other Vorsteiner rims for honda vezel. However, TE37 rims looks way better haha

@Beehive3783 Most probably i will go in Malaysia to get my rims and tyres changed. Should be around 1k for tyre and rim. Singapore is too expensive

Don't waste your money.

17 to 18 not much difference.

And 18 rims change once but 18" tyres change many times cost a lot more.

Save the $1k and go Japan for one week.

Airfare Skoot $400, hotel 6 night at $60 a night 3 star hotel $360.

Food $30 a day for breakfast, lunch and dinner total $180.

$60 for trains fare. Airport to Tokyo $13, return is $26.

2 x 3 days pass for unlimited Tokyo subway pass is 2 x $15 or total $30.

Left $4, MRT to Changi and back 2 x $2.

Upgrade 17" to 18"

handling won't improve much.

No sexy girl is going to notice and say 

Wow I like a man with 18", let's go H81.

They will only notice your wallet $1k thinner

and go for the guy with the bigger budge in his jeans.

He wallet should be $1k fatter right?

When I was young and foolish and wasted so much money on car accessories

no one gave me good advice not to waste money.

When I was dating there was no dating forum to advise me

only date orphans so I will never get an MIL.

No sexy girl is going to notice the new rims on the Vezel.... Sad truth. 

But she may notice the ride is now less comfortable and may take a ride from someone else next time! 

BUT if it makes you (not sexy girl) happy, just spend! 

[Boomberx]

@kobayashiGT Yes of course, i dont mind if not original TE37 replica would do great anyways. Maybe might be from Taiwan or China not sure

[Boomberx]

@Volvobrick I am way over that age to flirt. I am a proud father of 1 and expanding so no more sexy girls for me... just focusing on my family and my hobby 🙂 as a grown ass man, I am contended with my life

[Boomberx]

Genuine question, Brembo that cost $700 set is fake right especially from JB workshops that claim to be real. But it states from china so I am so puzzled if that is a steal or not.

Change to 18" rims happy for a while until scrape the kerb.

Go to Japan for $1k for a week

and have memories for a life time.

He will remember it long after after his car COE died

and the car got scrapped.

If from JB could be real and could be a steal.

When they take the tyres and rim if its real brambo they take as well.

So could be real and a real steal.
