Rim sizes

[facelift]

Is it possible to use different size of rim on a car (proton)? Like 17" front and 18" rear. I think it will look nice. Like the pagani zonda (19 front, 20 rear)

Zonda is RWD la. That car is too powerful la. Even 20" also still can have wheel spin all the way for 1st gear.

Proton all is FF so u should get 17" front n 14" back for drag race.

I mean just for the look only. Cos I think putting 18 front sure kena body for most proton cars.

Better not la, find those rear wide rims, front 7jj back 8jj dish rims nice,.

if u wan the looks aaa...i think both u put 17" but the front u put lower profile wan...maybe front 35/17R the back 45/17R heheheh...should be nice i think?..hahaah

17 stil acceptable for wira 1.8-2.0

if 18; ur car totally no power.....i walk oso faster than ur car..too big too heavy the rim

even u juz wan the look...if ur car cannot drive...how u gonna to show the looks? :albertein

 

[boosook]

hahaha...18" not suitable...17" just nice..

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

proton should not exceed 17" rim lar... for better performance, better 16" enough... coz the bigger ur rim, the harder to spin it... this theory do applies eventhough u use lightweight rims...

 

[gavan]

ahaahhaa, maybe like the magazine wan kancil, L2 using 16" damn nice also lehh... :D butthen even 17" also i think its tooo big already, samor you know larr, proton standard cars are kinda underpowered, unless of course you talking bout 1.8 twin cams or something larr...then maybe got power lorr, like GTi, butthen i see, some GTi also change to 15inch worr, plus, 15inches are still cheap for tyres, once go above that range oni, wow, the price also can say also almost double liow :(

 

[boosook]

yea i agree la underpower..but facelift wanna go for looks ma...hehehe

 

[fstr]

use steel rims can dee lar...why susah susah get 17inchers

stock looks good ma... :)

 

[gavan]

ajahahahaa, yeah, sleeper yeah :D

 

[masvidal]

bro, 17" is nice for look. dont care what other said.....just go for it.....hehehe.

 

[LuKa]

18" will fit if you get the right off set.. but it will scrape if you have pax at the back if ur using lowering springs.. n u might hve to do negative chamber to it.. ull eventually have ur tyres wear out from the inside more..

If you r really interestted in 18" n do not care much of power n speed.. it should not be a prob.. a 1.6,1.8 n 2.0cc protons could still handle the size..

use adjustables absorbers to eliminate the probs of scraping.. but ur ride will be harsher since.. the adjustable is hard+the low profile tyre..

why darker rims have more garang look leh??

 

[boosook]

why darker rims have more garang look leh??

why ah??...ummm...coz black is more to a bad looking colour.. same goes for the head light..if u tint it black..ur car will look more scary wan...it will have the fierce look...hehehhe
lets say la...if a black car wit tinted head light tail gating u..u will feel more 'oh shit' more than a black car wit crystal head light rite???...

 

[SkYwAlKeR]
