just found up yesterday that 2 of my stock rims are dented.. so forget this and the solution now is the other way around.. need to find a set of sport rims and maintain the stock spare rim...

Bro, up to your liking one. Go to the rim shop and "test" it on your car. Then see it for yourself smile.gif

are the rims lighter than stock? how's the pickup and FC? see any improvement?
*
even taiwan replica rim also lighter than our stock. stock is about 12kg, this rim they claim the weight is about 8kg, dunno true or not. tak sempat mahu timbang. ori TE37SL from japan much expensive and lighter (about 5kg), cannot afford that.

FC not monitoring yet coz it still new and need more time to monitor. i'm driving in city driving condition with moderate traffic jam (fed hway + LDP), not so much impact on FC, maybe a little bit only.

but i sense even with 4kg of difference per rim, the car feels lighter especially moving from stationary condition.

hi all,

i found that there is an animal inside my engine bay.. probably at night time only when i park my car at apartment's parking lot. how to overcome this since i scared that the animal (maybe rats or other small marsupial) will do damage to my car by eating the cables and wires inside engine bay. maybe can cover base of engine bay with net or any other posibble solution? now my engine bay got bad smell from its poo..

tq.
