Thanks for the info. :)

I was reading the forum and there are many ppl recommending Hankook Tyres. Apparently ppl change @ Toh Guan?

Is that place good? Price ok?

Hi Folks, i finally changed my rim and tire! .. after 47K on my stock J15 185/65/15.  Upgraded to 16" with Continental Premium Contact 2 205/55/16. Went shopping for the past 2 weeks. Conclusion is not a lot of nice rims available for 16" 4x114.3 pcd.

Was given the warning by the ws that this profile may hit my fender if its full load. However, decided to still go with it as i do not want to see that gap getting any larger. Once the new wheels are on, the gap is obviously smaller (although its just 1cm). The wheels are now thicker by 3cm, looks a little protruding, hopefully, will not splash too much water around my doors. Asthetically more pleasing now  :thumbsup:

The new tire is good, better than my stock j15. Quieter and more comfortable, althought i was hoping it will be much more. The difference in quietness can better be felt on concrete road or the brick roads in the carparks. The car is more stable with sharp turn in the carpark and during parking, perhaps, due to the thicker tire? Handling is better. Can drive down round entrance to ECP at Xilin (CBP) at about 70. Can handle the stretch of bends long ECP near MBS more comfortably and faster now. Breaking on wet dry better much better now. Still looking for pool of water to run on. I can almost float with my old bald J15. :w00t:

Pick up is still okay. a very little tad slower - insignificant ba. FC? - dont know yet. Need to fill up another tank to have a more accurate reading.  ::)

Oh, surprisingly the "tong tong" sound which my steering wheel makes some time during sharp turn in carpark is lesser wo.  :D

dm:
what rims you changed?
