i tried to change my front right tyre but the damn wheel nut is impossible to open..damn...need to send to shop to do it...

YOU NEED SOMEONE HEAVY.
ask you and your wife stand on it together la.

scared the damn thing break pulak..haha

im still thinking between 1.6SX or 2.0 ....... im worried about under performance if i get 1.6 ...... for 2.0 of coz its much more better but still thinking of the necessity while most of the time i only drive around kl ......btw is there any cost issue for maintenance/spare parts/service?? e.g it cost a boom to replace an electronic box

spray wd40 sikit...

if most of the time driving in KL, then 1.6 together with downgrade rim to 15/16"... u know la KL has a lot of potholes...
maintenance/service murah jee... parts dunno coz its come with 5yrs warranty & unlimited mileage...
after 5yrs u rich aldy so no need to afraid about cost...

Downgrade the rim will void warranty or not? The kia SC provide this service?

warranty not void if using 205/55R16 or 195/65/R15...
other than above size dunno la coz SC will use it as an excuse... they will say not follow specs la, bla bla bla...

never heard owner bring 4 new rims + tires to SC for them to install...
why need kia SC to do it...? go kedai papan & choose any rims + tires u like laaa... can trade-in current rims + tires somemore...

will downgrading 17' to 16/15' make significantly as mentioned? thx

based on owner yg dah downgrade ada significantly affects as per below :-
a) lower fc
b) reduce humming sound
c) reduce hydroplane
d) can hit potholes happily
e) thicker wallet increase

anyone able to claim the door button 1.6 SX using extended warranty?
is it RM200 is all i need to pay?

hi phelix long time no see...
yup RM200 if the claim exceed RM200...
if below RM200 better do outside...

i'm planning to get back the same tyre & rim design since my tyre benjol, dont wanna take other rim design - i was quoted RM 369 for the same Kumho Solus KH17 - is this too expensive? Anyone knows where else i might be able to get this @ cheaper price if any?

new or 2nd hand ? which shop sell it ?

its new one, 1 piece with rim..wonder if this price is too expensive or not..the shop name is utama tayar in damansara utama ss21/35, lot number 124.

Dude, what's wrong with the old rim? Cannot just change tyre meh?

someone maybe trade-in his spare tyre + rim... ok la that price if together with rim...

new rim lagi sexy

my mistake..its just price of tayar only i just reconfirm with the shop...i guess if tayar only is expensive?

ok i called up another tyre shop called:

QUICK-SAVE AUTO BOUTIQUE
NO.2, USJ7/3A, SUBANG JAYA,

the person is very friendly, told me he got sell KH17 for forte, 17" is RM 120 only but these are "used" ones that people trade in because complaint too noisy, I wonder if there's anything fishy - RM 120 is really cheap but wonder if got any issues...any comments guys?

Yuppp...

need to check the condition but if u want to use it as a spare tire then should be no issue...
Nego to RM90 laaa...
