Just want to pose the above question to all the drivers out there, feedback is appreciated. Before I start, let me give some info on my current car. Driving a SUV now. Stock wheels were 235/65 R17. A few months back, the tyres were getting bald and needs a change. I have long been a fan of huge chrome deepdish rims. Since it needed a tyre change, I reckon I will go for the full package. After asking around, most of my friends or shop owners will say that 'your FC is going to be super jialat, furthermore with such big rims'. I thought, what the heck, it is not everytime I get to have a car to be able to be fitted with big rims. I went ahead and got a R22 rims with 265/35. The overall diameter is still withn 1% of my stock wheels. I must say, I did not regret my decision. Full chrome with a 3" lips. Before changing wheels, FC was approx 7.8 - 8 km / L. After changing rims, I monitored for 2 months and most of the time, it is quite constant. Many who have seen my rims were WOW, your FC must be crazy. I just told them it is ok, still acceptable to me. Question to the bros and sis here, be it either you have experience with rims upsizing or you hearsay from others, what do you think my FC is currently. I did not purposely change my driving style before or after, style and attitude still remained the same.

Went down to 2 Nokia service centres. One at Parkway and the other at Century Square and found out that both are no longer in operations. Only the one at Vivio and Causeway are open. I wone be surprised that the one at Wheellock is also game over. This move will make all the Nokia users very inconvenient

Within the 1st two years of my new car it could usually travel ~540-550 km before my last fuel indicator light blinks. However in recent months when its mileage has surpassed 100k km, I find that it typically starts to blink at ~480 km. Servicing has been done every 10k km. Is this drop of 60-70km per 42 litre tank normal? P.S. Unfortunately this drop in FC also happens to coincide with the period I changed my brand of petrol from Caltex to Shell. Wondering which is the culprit here.

Hey forum mates, after sending my car for polishing, can feel that the whole car is very smooth what is interesting is that my FC is better! increment of 1.5km/litre. I'm 100% sure its not an illusion and i travel exact same pattern as compared to the previous time, what is your take on this?
