13" Sports Rims

[Gadgeter]

It is better to have the alignment checked regardless of the size upgraded.

 

in fact, I normally have it check every 10000km....

[Koren]

of course.. but power loss might be a problem.. high fc too..

Dear all,

 

Would like to find out from all of you if 13" sports rims are easy to find? If yes, can recommend where to purchase? Going to replace the current 13" stock rims.

 

Thanks

if u are still interested in 13" can ck out with Khai Wah battery & tyre at race course rd tel 62926700

with all the big cars, bigger rims are easily available and more choices.

look at your avatar, you govt people ah??!!

15' on a picanto.... the fc must be terrible.

[Soya]

how much worse can it be? maybe 20km/l drop to 18km/l.....

 

tink maybe the pickup is snail-like.

[Wbucket]

Might be more. Cause that should be the figures when you change from 13" to 14". And Picanto can achieve 20km/L, that is for sure, but how many actually done it? Postings from sgkiaclub show that it ranges from 15-19 for manual. Some might be using 14", but 15" could push you below 15km/L. Do take note.

I am not gov ppl. I like the the 2 lion beside the crest.

[Ultraman]

Errr... Viviobluerex, think those two cats you were talking about, one is a lion and the other is a tiger. Not two lions

[Viviobluerex]

Yeah, Lion on Left, Tiger on Right, type fast so didnt bother, heheh...

[Mobietalk]

Yeah, actually that is true.. of course if you are well aware that the winner of the shell more milage winner in that category is a kia picanto driver. Anyway, feedback from my brother is that ride more stable, FC so far not much reduction, but power certainly can feel a loss esp when his ride is full load..

[Wbucket]

Ya, the driver does played a important part. Even heard of Vios with FC of 20km/L? Or Lancer with 15km/L.

 

1 more thing to add, the loss in power would usually transmit into a heavier foot. That is how FC suffer. Anyway, luckily we drive these small cars, even flooring once a while, FC will still win most car makes.

[Smiley]

why the 2 lion in particular?

[Viviobluerex]

Becoz the lion looks like Britney Spears and the other Tiger looks like J Lo

[Smiley]

not to me, but it's real funny.

[Viviobluerex]

Ha ha! Let your imagination flow...
