from the look of it, you can solve it with just polish. buy them at hardwre store and spend an hour or two polishing the driver's door or half day for the whole car and it will be better. flex.gif

Why is the stock suspension so freaking high?

Also, what are the benefits of UR bars? Does it cost a lot to fix?

Also.. more questions.

Prior to driving my new Viva I had been driving a relatively old Wira for 3 years.

So here's my experience driving Viva as compared to driving a Wira:
1. The car feels so damn high.
2. The rides feel "stiff" or "hard", as in I can feel every single tiny bump or uneven surface on the road. I'm very used to the smooth rides in my old Wira.
3. Taking corner feels like my car can topple anytime.

As I'm a complete noob when it comes to car matters, can anyone tell me the reasons to my points above? What I can do to the car to make the experience better?

bro, u cannot compare viva with wira..
viva is just a small town car, zippy car for u to move around town.. where else wira is more of a family sedan..

although wira is considered an aging car, its still a good car compared to its rivals!!

the only way u can "slightly" improve the handling is to add in:
- front strut bars
- rear anti-roll bar
tht's enough, more than the above its too much already.

What is the tire size you're looking for?

For a new pair of 14" tires, they won't exceed RM300 for both, you can get RM300 including installation and balancing even at some shop.
