Guess I'm a sucker for bigger rims :devil2: But guess +1 would be 195/55R16 however this size is not common. I just find the existing stock or rather my change to 195/60R15 have a fat looking tyre :unsure:
Novellus Legends:
when i was 15inch, i get around 14.5k/l on mineral
after switch to syn , i changed to 205/50/16 and i still get 14.5 to 15.5..
cant tell the impact but i think 10% is a good gauge?

thanks to all the feedback.
hmm...look like upgrading to 16" do not affect the FC very much.
i may change aft the current tyre run bald. cause now if i trade in the tyres, i cannot get a good value since my mileage is alr ard 2.5k.

depends on what grade of tires u use and the weight of the rims as well.
I was using a 15" rim with Kumho tires because i sent my 16" rims for re-spray, then after about a week, i changed back to my 16s, definitely quieter, more comfy, steering was lighter, pick up was better because the 15" chiong rims were heavy!
If u used sticky tires, that can affect ur fc as well. Have fun in your rim shopping.
