Since i am using vios g spec rim with the same tyre profile with oem tyre what is the optimum air pressure for this profile of tyre? What toyota recommend for 185/60/15? G spec?
*
based on the pressure on the driver side door, its 220kPa front and 210kPa rear... i pump 5-10kPa more

kenji, why 5-10 more?
*
i feel the few kPa gives slightly better acceleration, cornering and better FC... slightly bumpier but acceptable smile.gif

i've tried higher like 240kPa, but too bumpy

For TRD I like the rim and the optitron meter but not the black color seat.
As for the G limited, I like the interior color but not the chrome package thingy.
*
for TRD spec, the rims (RM1.7k no tyres) and optitron (RM1.6k) can be bought aftermarket... the seats are black leather

chrome package looks unker doh.gif
i'm driving the normal G spec, the G limited came out 1 week after i bought, i like the G limited rims color doh.gif

Hahaha. No money for aftermarket, after buy the car.
I know the seat are black leather, look cool with the TRD sewed on it.
Ya, the chrome package look too unker. Will full of fingerprint.
*
same ler... either you pay after getting the car or put into the loan tongue.gif
TRD price includes those already... i heard that G spec rims more expensive than TRD blink.gif

Then I'll pump 95. And also guys, TRD bodykit are made locally or from Japan?
I heard the SA said the RIM are from Japan, but dont know about the bodykit.
*
the whole car is locally made, only the ECU is from Japan... very low possibility that bodykits and rims are from Japan...

If bodykit from locally, then if I wish to replace it, it should be kinda cheap? Compared to Japan made
*
i have doubts though... Japan after market rims already cost more than RM2.5k per set... TRD rims are only selling for RM1.7k from stockist, don't know lar tongue.gif

sometime i face tis problem b4 too... 50km drop 1 bar which normally i drive 70-80 only drop 1 bar...
perhaps is the quality of petrol i guess... coz i hav exp b4 in some station their petrol like mixing.. dunno how to explain..
but u can feel the car cant be performance as usual.. after u pump in other station( same company) it will be okie again..
perhaps u can try pump at other place n c...
*
i think most of the KL petrol station is like that... depends on what they mix and how much doh.gif
the one i pumped at JB actually gave better mileage and acceleration doh.gif
