Is Ok with my 225/40 18" for straight . But cornering still abit scare.

no, front car only kena, from my xprience. 1 car in 5 second...so next time just follow front car, jgn potong.

Someone sudah kena poison......welcome to the dark side bro!

What are the negatives of using replica rims? Structural integrity? Weight? Precision of manufacturing?

Don't think I'll get them, but now's a good time to learn in case in the future hehe.

AFAIK, both type oso will kena...

Speed trap (where they stop you for.... errr.... errr...): they will radio the checkpoint all cars in cluster (IE BMW merah, Forte silver, Inspira hitam... semua lebih 150)

Saman Ekor: Usually LAST car kena, coz they almost always hide behind pillar, behind bushes middle or divider (I know several locations where they "cut" a gap into the bushes and sit in it). So when they snap radar pics at the cluster of car, only the last one get caught on film...

I would say its a little heavier than ori rims, but its less damaging to the pocket.
Ok here is the side pic of the whole car that I promised some of you guys yesterday.

Personally I dont like wings, I find Inspira's design is done tastefully and no intention to do anything extra, just that the stock rims dont do justice to the car, I am already over 30 & got family, no need to attract young and dangerous drivers out there, like those baru pass driving license to race..

Sothys car with new rims very sexy...  even my fren using forte also jelous

Dunno when.. my wf said love kids 1st then car 2nd...  wat to do..   

Gong Xi Fa Chai to all of U here. Drive carefully. Jangan biarkan sanak saudara menanti dengan tangisan di rumah. Dont drink & drive...

Alamak  , you starting to poison people now, 
The more you look at the rims, the more poisoned you will become, I am a victim already. I can tell you, if you looked at the picture already nice, you should look at the real thing in 3d. When it all came together yesterday, I realized the rims is worth the money paid - no regrets.

Hi Poadster,

Here's mine. 17" BE GTS-AV. little bradder of Sothy's 18".

[attachmentid=2027367]

Tire size is 225/50/17.
Rim spce is 17 x 8JJ.
For 18" is 18 x 8JJ as well.

Rims are nice, but I think I've decided if I were to change rims, it would be 18", and I don't want to spend that money now. Cash in the bank I want to use to reduce my future house loan, so I can have more choices. All nice units usually around 300k and above now where I am, so an extra 30-40k would really help in opening up what units I can choose. Otherwise 250k and below all either old ones, or less than 800sqft >.<

After CNY, I'll do UR bar for the front strut, and maybe spoiler, that's it

True true.. Very smooth..
I've a question, i,ve reached 1000km here in ipoh (going back to melaka) any major problems if i send 1st service at around 1500km? (cannot do anything anyway...) demm not yet 1 week already 1st service... CNY jalan2 car!!!!

Oh.. Ok.. Thanks.. A liiittle bit worried..

Oh..This morning.. I warmed up the car and the exhaust splurted out some black liquid.. Like dots of ink..on my aunts porch (demm) (maybe from the rain last night) is it normal also?

Another thing.. To 2.0 plum red (same like mine) AHK128* thanks for the friendly honk on penang bridge.. Happy CNY!!!!

happy to see more inspiras on the road during CNY....

Bro,

you are buying a brand new car not a used / 2nd hand car. Anything you mod, that touches the engine, exhaust system, wiring and gearbox will confirm void your warranty when you wanna claim your warranty. No matter how close you are with the SC.

Still people will mod it....

the trip down to singapore yesterday was a terrific drive, only managed to test speeds up to 170km/h on 3-4 times, due to wife disturbing my concentration asking to slow down and also tested the auto cruise, love to use it in sg where maintaining legal speed is a must and with it the urge to tekan is no more,

In sg, lancers are checking my car, lol, even 2 evo x check it out from behind, must say quite alot of lancers in sg, mostly mod to the max, they must feel weird to see my car, lol

i noticed my absorber also got Nyek sound when pass through bumper....only few days old car

Added on February 5, 2011, 10:02 pmone more thing, my tinted window got baubles at rear seat side, how to claim? just call Eco Tint will do?

I will try my best to give a detailed description, here goes:

The steering feel becomes little heavier on the 18" due to weight of the rims. Ride is firmer with low profile tires & tire noise become more apparent due to the bigger tire grooves, FC is still very good for this long distance journey, I averaged 6.8L/100KM for the journey from PJ to Tuas, I drive mostly at 110km/h with auto cruise on, as mentioned earlier I did speed for few times over 160km/h to over take large numbers of cars also to test the car performance at that speed, at 160km/h no apparent vibration to steering or to the car or any floating feel. So give you the confidence in handling at those high speed.

Do note that I have installed UR bars on the front, back and bottom of my car so it helps when cornering & stability. Cornering becomes more accurate and stable, very much less body roll than before.

After changing to 18" with tires 225/40/18 no touching of wheel arches or spring bottoming experienced even going over a bump as there is enough clearance. Everything feels like stock setup except the noticeable increase in road noise and firmer ride. I dont mind this for a better handling and driving experience.

The point about absorber "nyek" sound, its still there in the morning hump but much milder/softer now maybe I am taking the humps slower due to my new rims.

Hope its good enough

Who was that friendly guy driving a "MAD 5**" White 2.0 modded the front bumper who honked and waved at me along Federal Highway at about 3 plus just now?

I just wanna say "Cool dude with a nice car! Woots!" Cheers  

yup, mine is 2.0P. Do anyone who booked after 15th Nov 2010 encountered the same problem?

Hmm planning to install GT spoiler. Which is cheaper? Rainbow or After12?

So sad that i can't join u all to rainbow.

Coming to kl this thursday to change rims and to do autofoam.

Maybe we can tt at KL Auto on Friday or Saturday to see how they do my car

Go up North just to mod your car?

Hehe, just got back from rainbow. Very interesting place, friendly boss. Quite a few of us were there today, though not all at the same time. Kena poison by a black LGT that came, so I ordered a LGT spoiler LOL.
