mugma : fake.

My tip to avoid buying a fake wheels is to get a hard to get offset rims. I am using Kosei P1 Racing with +27 offset. I know they have imitation for it but i dun think they can follow the offset specification :biggrin:

they can do any offset that u want.the problem is the selling point.the most
popular offset is +38 - +42 cos it can be install mostly on any car.

mine is 15inch. so need to compare with 15inch original yokohama advan rg 1998 model one laa. does anyone ever saw ori 15 inch one aa? from www.yokohamatire.jp these model already not in their list. in term of legality, by "made in japan" stamp suppose what if its fake? btw this rim offset is +38mm and the weight is around 4.8kg. i guest its fake since the price is cheap, slightly higher than taiwans 15 rim. just need some prove whether we can check thru serial number or else.

i saw it before.a friend of mine using it on his ek.but he sold the wheel already.no need to compare
with the same size la bro since the back portion is identical on all sizes.btw,ur wheel weight is
4.8kg ar?that can be consider light liow.

Hi,

I am having difficulty in removing very very stubborn water spots on my windscreen. This is what i've already tried

1. white Vinegar 100% strength leave it for 5 mins.
2. Meguairs Water spot remover by hand and by rotary buffer
3. Clay with opc and meg's quik detailer.
4. scraping it with my finger nails. Doesn't come off!!
5. Meg's ultimate compound by hand.

Any advise is greatly appreciated :)

Thanks.
