I was wondering how come tyre setup can becomes toilet pics. hehehee

 

[ektony]

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

Yu was reminding us to "hei san or yeh liu". hahaha...

 

[Yu911]

Ace, funny is it?...........:X-:

hehehehe

 

[BlackSamurai]

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

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.

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.
