any persona owner using R16 rim? thinking to change to 16, but would like to see how R16 looks on persona. really struggle between R16 & R17 because the price only differs by Rm 200 ~ RM 300...

wow, only judging from the photo can differentiate 15' & 16'.

1 shop quoting a set of Weds Sport 16' replica rim @ RM 1,250 + 205/50/16 CC1 @ RM 230/pc

but i found that another 15' Weds sport replica also very nice, the 15' GY Assurance only cost RM 170+



Difficult to choose....

This 1 i 100% agree with you. The stock break pads only last me for Genting uphill + downhill X 2 (Too exited that time, busy potong all chap of vehicle except the famous tiga kayu). As a result the break pads kapuk within a single day.

But after changing a new break pads now no more dust already.


after installing this the cd player can play song on usb pendrive?

Just to give you some rough idea:

16' rim - Chap ayam Taiwan made = RM 950 from mudah.com (but the shop in shah alam)
16' rim - Wedsport replica taiwan made = RM 1,200 to RM 1,300
16' rim - Oz sport replica taiwan made = RM 1,350 ++
16' rim - Chrome rim Taiwan made = RM 1,800++

There are many other model price above RM 2,000 but i dont pay much attention since it is out of my budget.

But do take note that there are approx. RM 230 additional charges on the steel valve, nuts, bolt etc etc.

If you decide to go for 17', choose your tyre width carefully otherwise it will sangkut at rear.

nowsaday replica also got "Made in Japan" chop

i also change to 16', but i think if you pay a nett price of RM 2,000, it is a bit on the high side.



The shop give me 2 option:

Package 1 - Wedsport replica 16' + 4 tyre Taiwan/China made 205/50/R16 = RM 1,470 + RM 230 (Steel valve/nuts/etc A+B) Total RM 1,700 only

The one i bought:

Package 2 - Wedsport replica 16' + 4 X Falken ZE 522 205/50/R16 = RM 1,670 + RM 230 (Steel valve/nuts/etc A+B) Total RM 1,900

If i go for Continental CC-1 195/50/R16 = RM 1,760.

but at that point of time after survey in 4 shop for 2hr+, its too tiring to go elsewhere to bargain and have to throw in towel liao

not sure about yours, but mine only got 50,000km/24 months whichever come first. Check your service booklet.

I got some question here:


1) Anyone experienced on claiming warranty previously? Will they charge additional labor fee to replace faulty part? Previously i change the fuel lit and they do it for free. But this time i need some fix on the drive shaft and definitely it will take more time than changing a fuel lit.

The tricky part is my car just over 50,000km recently (55k now) and not sure whether can get away with it by nagging the service center.

I just found that the left side rubber ring (the one next to the big rubber gaiter) on the drive shaft has broken and causing the steering wheel aligning to left all the time.


2) How long your ori absorber last? Mine almost two years now. How to know if the absorber still working?

Also suspect the air-con gas is running low cause the air-con fan is spinning very frequent now...
