fuel cost won't differ much, just that you get more grip on the road. I would recommend you use 195/50/R15, more accuracy from your speedometer XD

PCD=What does PCD mean? PCD stands for (pitch circle diameter) and is the diameter of a circle drawn through the centre of your wheels bolt holes.

wira,putra,satria,honda and most toyota use pcd 100...iswara,waja,perdana,gen2 neo use pcd 114.3

offset in english really hard to explain...in malay easier...0-100...lebih besar no bermakna rim itu terkeluar...lebih besar no lebih kedalam...

6.5JJ=ur rim width...

FC and etc won't affect much from 13" to 14" conversion
The only difference that it makes is the speedometer's accuracy will be slower by 0.4%

actually I think it won't make any difference at all. The size of the rims may be different, but when combined with the tyres...they're almost exactly the same. How else do you explain those people running on cheap spare tyres when they have a flat. There are quite a number of them on the road...3 wheels on 15-16" sport rims, 1 wheel on spare 13" rim/tyres sweat.gif

I'm using 195/50/R15 and I had a flat once...drove quite a distance to the repair shop with no problem at all. I thought the steering would at least feel different...but nothing like that happened. So, to me...FC, power, and everything else will be the same if you change the rims. Only difference you'll feel is less comfort. Low profile tyres have less air cushion...so you'll definitely feel the bumps more than 13". In other cars...like the Merc, BMW, some Hondas...you won't feel much of the bumps but our Wiras...different lo sweat.gif

Guys,like to ask you something.
Someone in Garage Sale is selling his Wira for a few K.I think it's a 1994 car but he said theres problem with the engine and need to change to a new one.
Btw,that one is a 1.5 Auto I think and I asked abt transplating back to 1.3 Manual and it cost RM800-900.

Now what I like to know is that after transplating a new engine,does it mean that that wira would be 'kind of NEW'?
FC would be low too right?
Would it be problemless for at least a year?
