1. looks. stability. handling. maybe better mileage, depending on the weight of your rims VS stock weight rims. usually not the case as people buy taiwan rims and make it much heavier.
2. ez-stab is a voltage stabalizer to me.
3. tcss - talk ******** sing song.
4. no i am not a mechanic, just a technician.
5. i do up audio systems and car accessories.

rota rims are good stuff, im currently running on rota boost 17x7.5", cheap, fairly light, able to clear brembos(very impt for wrx).
for your latio, depends on what you want. if want good fc and pick up, go for 15" or maximum, 16".
tyres, you know i will recommend hankook lah. hehehe, try their v8rs. no regrets. my gf's car travelled 12000km on it already and the treadwear is very minimum. quiet as well.
if you're going 17", try to get japan rims such as enkei, oz, rays, gramslight. match them with s1 evos. you'll love the grip and feeling. with it on, you should be able to negotiate most bends @ 60~80km/h without worries. not even a squealing sound from the tyres.
if need help recommending tyres and rims, can always call me @ 91544534. if im free, i can accompany you down to the tyre shop.

Hi mine is stock rims, but can change to the V8rs 195 / 60 / R15?
Cos I heard need to change to a "wider rims"
Stock is 5.5 x 15, based on calculation 195 / 60 / R15 would be good between 5.5 - 7" Rim width.
Which do you reckon?

stock can fit 195/55/r15.
55 would be a better fit and you will feel improved stability.
odo will be slightly off but dont worry too much about it. =]

Hi,
I new here, getting my Latio sedan this coming weekend. Just a few questions.
1) Is the stock tire and rim good enough for daily usage
2) What is the average price for V8rs and GR-80 ?
3) What is the weight of the stock 15" rim on Latio base sedan.
Thanks.
