Mana ada rich la, real rich people will never buy old used rims like mine leh! They'd buy the latest new big size Rays/HRE/Vossen for their supercars/luxury cruisers!Yalor, all rich use Rolex ones......
Sounds unacceptable at all for such a famous brand if their products are so unreliable.OEM for car company the tyres sure will not be premium unless the car is also. I only know PUG 308T and VW have the CSC range but had plenty of complains of bulging. My friends who had them all change to other brands of tyres when the tyres bulge and one even burst.....lol
My meaning of ideal width is your own personal ideal width that you want for the wheels, not factory size, hahahaha. Seems like you really want to go much more wider than the original factory size. Won't that cause your car to feel heavier and cause slight power loss? In Wira's case, I heard people using 16 inch wheels with 205 width tyres (30mm wider than stock 175) are already robbing off some power.No, not like that. My 245 is actually already 2 cm wider than the std tires for this car for the Sports Package version which comes stock with 225/45/18 all round on 18x8 rims. As for my stock ones, they're even smaller 215/60/16 with 16x7 rims only! Newer GRX130 Sports Package comes with slight larger 235/45/18 which is still 1cm narrower than mine now. So mine at 245 is already considered a bit overspec, which is good already, but of course if can go wider then better lor!
No I bought my rims used, cannot afford brand new Volk Racing forged rims leh, they cost the bomb!
High end Continentals can be made in any European countries, not necessarily Germany.
Some Mercs E & C classes also come stock with CSC tires.
Gearbox also uncommon over here.I think the gearbox is inhouse by peugot/renault/citreon.
Its called AL4 or DPO gearbox.
Normal 3 speed + OD.What i likes abt the gb is the shift is very quick.Even quicker than the newer Invecs in my BLM.Power delivery felt direct like a manual car. Kickdown and upshift is done quickly and adapting to your right foot input.
Oh you mean ideal like that. Well if want ideal meaning just nice width, enough for the power and handling, yet not too wide and best comfort for this car, it will be 235/45/18 on 18x8jj or 18x8.5jj rims. However that size will be a bit stretched for my rear rims at 9jj, so need wider at minimum 245. I'd mentioned ideally 265/40/18 coz it's the tallest sidewall at about 10.7cm so the most comfortable/similar to 235/45. Being too wide, yes it will drag the car a bit but having so much grip for handling is just so fun and enjoyable, at least for me! Even with my 245 now I can take corners much faster than when using the stock sizes, imagine if with 265! Power is good but handling is more important and can bring an equally big smile too! Bro S.Marz with 275 rear on his BMW 5 series should be able to vouch for this....

Yes INVECS is on BLM and most probably from Mitsu.The gb on BLM is not mistaken 2nd gen INVECS or called INVECS II which claim smoother drive , adaptive thing. Its newer compared to DPO but doesnt comes close on overall performance.Gearbox also uncommon over here.
INVECS gearbox in BLM? Isn't INVECS gearbox from Mitsubishi?
Then use linglong tyres? I don’t judge a man by his rims, I judge him by his tyres. A guy using advanti rims costing 1k, then use AD08R tyres, that’s a rich man. Rims don’t have to always change but tyres have to. And when the rubbers costs more than the alloy wheels. Yup, rich AND smart man.Mana ada rich la, real rich people will never buy old used rims like mine leh! They'd buy the latest new big size Rays/HRE/Vossen for their supercars/luxury cruisers!
yep bought from mitsu, same like the persona's conventional box but a few features less....Sounds unacceptable at all for such a famous brand if their products are so unreliable.

Agree, so in fact VR2 is the rich man here! Using very old rims but paired with German made F1A3!Then use linglong tyres? I don’t judge a man by his rims, I judge him by his tyres.

If you are able to fork out the money for those wide sizes and ok with the slight power reduction, then it is a good choice for you as you sound like you really enjoy going through corners in high speed.Oh you mean ideal like that.

If the cps engine is mated to dpo gearbox then the waja cps will be a great car.
Thank you to both Gunnerzz and lsm1991 for the clarification. Now I learned something new about those 4 AT gearbox in Proton campro engines.yep bought from mitsu, same like the persona's conventional box but a few features less....
Note that even though my current rear size is 245/40/18 on 18x9jj rims, the total weight of the package is still LOWER than the original 215/60/16 on 16x7jj rims by about 1kg or maybe more! (coz the bloody stock rims are just damn heavy!) SO, I don't think I actually loose power to the wheels as the lighter weight compensates for the wider drag from the tires, which I'm fully happy with as the handling improvement is night and day!If you are able to fork out the money for those wide sizes and ok with the slight power reduction, then it is a good choice for you as you sound like you really enjoy going through corners in high speed.
S.Marz tyres? I've met him few days ago and indeed his tyres are really wide but his car had a high power engine. With that kind of power, the wide tyres won't drag his car much. I think his tyres and wheels are really nice. ...
Got one former STD patient using AD08 I think. Damn rich.Agree, so in fact VR2 is the rich man here! Using very old rims but paired with German made F1A3!
Oh ya, that one also! Now even richer, playing with some tire shredding snail now!Got one former STD patient using AD08 I think. Damn rich.
Now that makes sense. You should have mentioned the overall lighter weight earlier. You really went to weight the wheels and tyres before putting them on the car?Note that even though my current rear size is 245/40/18 on 18x9jj rims, the total weight of the package is still LOWER than the original 215/60/16 on 16x7jj rims by about 1kg or maybe more!

SO, I don't think I actually loose power to the wheels as the lighter weight compensates for the wider drag from the tires, which I'm fully happy with as the handling improvement is night and day!
His car is a 530i if not mistaken so yeah surely got more power than mine!
hahhaha....rich no lah but bro. ixeo say rich and SMART, so I will take that.......lolAgree, so in fact VR2 is the rich man here! Using very old rims but paired with German made F1A3!
He already scratching head what to use next?.....lolOh you mean ideal like that.
