wut is the best tyre size for myvi??

[vr2turbo]

bro wut u think which fits the look of an myvi?? what i have in mind is SSR and RG2 only....

For looks, it is very personal. May look good to me, might not be for you, so I think for this is best you decide or get friends along and ask tyre shop to place the rims at the car tyres area for you to have a look. That is how I gauge my rims to match the car.....

Yea it's very subjective, some may even think the stock rims are better than any aftermarket ones.

 

[vr2turbo]

True, true.......
Actually some say OE rims are better because original from factory......kakakakkakakka

I ended up with Advan Racing 15" and Michelin PS3 195/50/R15.

However, when I got out to the highway I felt vibration when I'm driving about 110km/h which did not happen before changing the rims and tires. This is mostly due to the balancing right?

Yeah, most likely because of the balancing. Did they do balancing? They should. Whatever it is, just send to another shop to get it done.

How is the tire balancing done? Need to recall back the process to know whether they did the balancing or not.

 

[ddv_nk12]

There are two ways of doing it. The first way is to put your wheels on a machine and let it run. It will show how much weight or something like that to put to balance your tyre. The second way is by jacking up your car and accelerate while another guy will be sitting near the wheel to "feel" the vibration. Then, he'ss use the weight to see if it's balanced or not. This will be done till he is satisfied that the wheel is not vibrating any more. This explanation is based on what I see. Why, how and the terms I used may not be correct.

Anyway, just send it to another shop to do it. Very cheap only.

Is it one machine that they will put 1 tire and let it spin? If that's the machine then yes they did.

So I guess I will have to go back there because I'm pretty sure I was charged for it.

 

[ddv_nk12]

Yes, just my personal opinion, I don't like the machine balancing. I prefer the 'feel' balancing. Just go back to the shop and tell them to do the 'feel" balancing. Hehe. Good luck bro.

When changing tyres, balancing is always done. Whatever the job is done properly or not, depends on the sifu handling it. The one done on the machine is usually called off wheel balancing.
The one done on the car is on wheel balancing. Firstly I need to ask. Does the new rims fit perfectly with the wheel hub? If not, I suggest you fit the center cone first to fit the rims properly in the center.

How will I be able to check if it fits perfectly now? But one friend of mine said that most of the time when upsizing to a larger aftermarket rims, the center cone is very likely needed. But shouldn't the shop suggested/advised on this matter?

best offset for myvi 15inch 6.5jj and offset35..wont scrub even on full load..how low the can be no problem.

regarding balancing..if satisfied with machine than no problem, but if high speed still vibrate than onwheel balancing is best..in KL is around 10-15bucks for one tyre..seremban is 15bucks for front..this on wheel balancing depends on the persons skills..not everybody can do it till perfect.

is better to use center cone cause the rims original center hub is not big.. for myvi i think is 50to60mm and the taiwan rims center hub is 73mm..they have readymade center cones

 

[OKLY]

Actually I saw them placing something similar to this before putting on my tires:
WTS : Aluminum Center Cones (Hub Hole)

So now got 2 possibilities? One is that the center cone is not the correct size, another is the balancing was not done properly?
