Just got home! What a long² day! Just to share with you guys, I finally found a NOT SO offset rim to fit into my Pale B@stard. However, this is a frank advice to those who plan to go for 15" rims.



195/55/15 definitely wouldn't work without knocking fender arch. According to 4 eyed sifu, even if you put in 50 series tyre, it wouldn't help much. You have LESS knocking only. Reason being... refer photo below



I hope you understand I'm trying to point out the wheelarch itself is designed too fit for a 14" wheels. So, we have few problem which future modder should take into consideration if wanna go for 15" and above:

1) If offset outward too much, confirm kena fender arch.
2) If offset inward too much.... it will look like old SAGA/ISWARA wheels. Damn horrible & old fashion
3) If rim width is 7J and above, you not only hit the fender arch, it will hit the absorber as well
4) My 55 series tyre is VERY COMFORTABLE. It doesn't feel like change tyre ady, but if I have >2 adults at my backseat, if I go over bumb/hole, exit carpark my tyre will sangku fender, I also added spring buffer to lift the car slightly higher to avoid sangkut too often.
5) The opposite of point no.4, if tyre is too thin like 50series and below, there is a big chance the car will eat up some comfort, become more bumpy

Meanwhile, another bravo for Ah Wai as I mentioned earlier

Thanks again to Ah Wai.

Also felt sorry to see Wuakaka's ride... downstairs all wet ady


In late evening called to wake up Huzaifa, sorry to disturb. Paid up, TT a bit, go out tauke abit, then go home DIY ady, say sorry again couldn't make it last weekend DIY TT.


I guess I'm the only 1 found the rubber got super duper effect. My original was not attach correctly after JPJ inspection So, after I tear the original off, replaced them with the new frame seal, and all the usual noise has gone Last time because all the lobang didn't cover correctly, therefore can really hear vehicle passing by kao², now no more already . Apart from that, basically nothing has changed. I didn't feel the GRAND feeling of closing an expansive continental car door no matter how I slam or gently close it.

Anyway, blardy tired already. Good nite guys.

bendix ct stealth??

Using this will void warranty rite..?

Added on April 24, 2012, 8:43 amFLX SE is using 195/50/15R. Further more the original rims offset & JJ also smaller & more inward compare to after market parts. (Correct me if i m wrong)

Nope.

Important Note to ALL "fearful" of "Warranty Void" phobia :

As repeated oft times oledi : Proton Warranty for Saga...
Engine & GBox - 3 yrs
Others - 1 year only.

New addition: Power Windows - Lifetime (Not really! Haha!)
Subj to T&C. Pls read User Manual.

i have the tak tak tak brake problem since last year and the car had been sent to SC for 3 times and problem never solve. It becomes serious again in the past few days. any sifus can advise? already fed up with the SC, just want to solve in once and for all.

Cld FLX Owners pls chk yr Ori 15" rims (where fitted) & share info...?

TQ in adv.

u go survey ar?

thanks... i take that as 'officially proton approved' solution

Nope. Nothing official in that...
Juz our Bro's friendly suggestion so no undue stress...
And can cont 2enjoy yr ride...

Talak. I just ask around n find better sport spring. Many out there use Savvy sport spring to fit our ride. Resulting our rear is lower than front.

Finally, my flx saga manual can only go for about 240km with full tank....

New car?

Mileage?

Yesterday, around 210km left 1 bar. Yea, quite new, only traveled for 224KM
