That day i got ask SC ,about those change rim to 17"
They say will void  warranty, and cause the bearing spoilt faster. Too much load for the bearing to handle

Correct me if I am wrong. Is it wiser to change all 4 wheel hubs to larger one (which can accommodate 5 wheel nuts) instead of using back the original (4 wheel nuts) before installing excessively large rims/tires. Not to mention, Proton can void warranty for all Steering & suspension parts if they so wish. I am only afraid unauthorised mods like huge rim/tires may compromise safety.

If you look at the Persona's version of China's Youngman L3, you will see that the large wheels are planted on 5 bolts hubs which I feel is able to cope with the additional stress exerted on the drive-train & suspension.

rckh, to change all 4 wheels to 5 lugs will cost a bomb, not to mention that you might have to change the whole, if not, part of the braking system of the car as well. This way it will definitely void the warranty for the brakes and suspension. And in some cases, the upgrade to 5 lugs causes the wheels to be wobbly at high speeds. The way I see it, if there's a need to upgrade to 5 lugs, then the whole braking system should be upgraded as well for safety reasons. cool.gif

The brake rotors have to be upgraded to because if u were to change to 5lug nuts u the original brakes disc wont fit in anymore. If u are scared the studs cant take the stress then change to high strength wheel studs. Even those Subaru originals one will be more than enough to do the job.

I wanted to change to 5 lug earlier too as there are wider varieties of rims to choose from. But after thinking about the extra cost, hassle, and possibility of voiding warranty, I settled for a 4lug instead.

Yeah too many nice looking rims for 5holes.. There are a lot of 4holes rims too.. But mostly PCD100.. Persona 100whp max one.. There wont be enough of torque stress to spoilt any of the components lah.. Unless u turbocharged to 200-300whp then probably lah.. But not with a stock engine.

yea i purposely install low springs only at the rear to level the car. stock persona suspension really look damn stupid with the butt tonggek like what. so far, it does not hit the fender (rear) BUT... touches the inner bumper plastics when the car goes through a bump hard. i hv cut a bit off a plastic part with a pen knife since i saw the rubbing marks. but then i think it rubs the other plastic part in there.... anyways.... i am still investigating on this part. to report back later once i found it.

just an interesting note to you all which i found out long time ago couple of months after i own my car in 2009.

to lower ur persona pretty much like stock is easy.

1. Change the front & back absorber to Gen2. Why? Gen2's absorber body length is the same BUT the spring seats are lower about almost an inch. That is why u see Gen2 with lower profile tires still look pretty ok in stock height (no big gaps).
2. Persona's rear coil springs are the same with Gen2.
3. Persona's front coil springs are not the same with Gen2. So its either you maintain OR change the coils (front) to Gen2 as well. But if u change the front coils to Gen2, then u need to buy the top seat for it too since Persona's front coils have different sizes top and bottom (conical shaped).


NOTE: For mine i changed only the rear coil springs to APM Performax low springs to level out the ride. And it still drives exactly like stock.

Erm.. I agree with the high-butt case.. But I still like Persona's high butt bcos it blocks most of rear traffic's high beam/HID.. Probably change to adjustables? I don't know >.<
