With such wide tyres, handling in wet, acceleration and fuel consumption will be affected but it looks good though.
Checked the handbook, stock tyres 195/60/14 or 205/50/15

dude i think you better roll your fenders or something..
sorry, dude, just read this, so far no plan for that yet, Yu did that, i Know :biggrin:

Cow said:
i'm running on 195/55/16 and my tires will scrub the edge of the fender and scraping off pieces of rubber if I take a steep uphill right turn. But my ride is lowered la, so maybe that's why.
Cow, that sound scarry for me. Like a layer of your skin is peer off. OMG.

Cow said:
anyway, from the pics your tires look like they're about to touch the wheel well covers... wouldn't it scrape when you travel on uneven roads?
Not if I travel slow speed, scrap once at the uneven road from SS2 to Rothman Roundabout (in front of New Paris Restaurant), I believe I travelled at 70-80KMH (yah, I know, that's small road).

And my girl friend shouted, "Darling, you've gain weight!"
Muahaha, she always like to make fun of this.

Previously I told her that I need to install 17" rim because the car will go 2"-3" lower when I sit inside the car, hence the 17" will make the car higher and it will not touch the bump. :biggrin:
