so it locks your break pedal or acceleration pedal

hi guys, im really a newbie about cars

so was thinking once i got my J, thinking of changing my stock tyres and rims with these babies
price here listed 1080k, so this price quoted for the whole set of 4 rims right? and not for a single rim.
Thanks

yes. price is for 1 set (4 rims). enkei tuning is more expensive than normal taiwan rims, because it is licensed.

thanks bro really appreciate it

then you can see much more clearer, its honeycomb grill just like the one on golf 5

I would like to ask is there a 'break in period' for new vios?
*
to my kniowledge there is no real break in period like proton cars, where you need to drive 80km for the 1st 1000km, you just can drive as per normal

guys..which types of lubricant oil recommended for 5k service?
mineral or semi?
*
hmm dunno la bro, i also only when for 1k service and gearing up for my 5k service next
for me i would go for mineral coz next service is 10k
so far for 1k service i go for mineral, car run ok la, FC also ok, so for now i would choose
mineral for 5k service
but after 10k service you have the option to go for 15k or 20k
i would go for 20k so, by my 10k service i would then only go for fully syn
any sifu out there got tips to share
here is newbie advising another newbie only
the blind leading the blind hahaha

sure or not? what i can conclude from reading a lot of sites and forums are constant gear changes, less than 100km/h, less than 3k rpm... no sudden acceleration and stay too long on 4th gear for long period...

wonder how true is it...

any comments from existing drivers?
*
yeah read in another forum also, dont rev your rpm more then 3k
after my 1st service sekarang sudah berani bawak abit laju hahaha
