I can do better than that viva but what the point chasing & tapau back...not like i will win a trophy at skudai tol . Also it may risk me & viva driver also...ya lor, if somebody chase sure u hantam those pedal. If going to fast & lost control..lagi susah . well if somebody wanna go fast let em be..good driver/street racer/pro racer always give way when needed  |

QUOTE(3536837 @ May 17 2013, 09:04 AM) Js share my experience as well as I am viva 850 driver as well xD I do travel alots and drove many car before frm 660cc to 3000cc Wat I can say is viva is a quite good car in term of price and FC My stock viva wif 12" stock rim with the ugly wheel cap plus stock silverstone 155/55/r12 can goes up to max 165km/h , I usually will pump ron97 if I travel frm kl to Ipoh/Penang...wat to say is , frm 0 to 100 ard 10 sec...by frm 100 to 160 will take minutes depend on the road slope.. Bt once I reach 1xx , I dislike to press brake otherwise pickup will really take time and when I flash high beam and overtake car , sense of accomplishment will full fill me xD Last month I frm stock rim changed to 14 sport rim + Goodyear duraplus 165/55/r14 I felt that car is no longer stable n shaking than my 12" stock rims T.T....and the grip also abit loose , is it the tyre problem or rim size problem or absorber/spring problem?... And also the steering is not hard and solid like before , especially during corner , felt that front wheel will auto turn abit and loose wow.. your tyre diameter is 13% larger man? how's your fuel consumption after the 14" rim? |

QUOTE(lojeffrey @ Jul 16 2012, 10:34 AM) Car: VIVA 14" 165/55/R14. This is just my little opinion and experience of using Yokohama A-Drive, Continental CC5 and MAXXIS MA-E1. 4 years ago i was using Yokohama A-Drive, and it was RM12x in Klang. and quite long lasting, use till 2012 march I decide to change to continental CC5, but it was really disappointed me. drive 100km/h and above vibrate like hell, went to 5, 6 tyre shop, did more then 10 times balancing (include on wheel balancing) and conclusion is the tyre got problem (some workshop man told me) other than that, when i went into some sharp conner, it like no grip at all, no choice but slow down... it coat me rm 160 in kL, so last week I decide to change it, i was looking for yokohama AD 07, but unlucky, only left three pcs. so the tyre shopp boss recommend me to use MAXXIS MA-E1, and it is RM140. This was reasonable price and really satisfy me, like going into some sharp conner , is MORE MORE MORE better than CC5, i know u guys may say CC5 is comfortable not for going fast and all, again, this is just my opinion. and no vibrate anymore, 150km/h also very stable. thanks for reading  Mine is the same problem after i change to sport rim 14x6.5jj (165/55R14 - simex Tyre). The shop guy told me it's good and better but unluckily, when i drive not even more than 110km/p, my car steering started to vibrate. So now i am totally confused whether is it the Tyre problem or with other suspension issue. If the Tyre problem, what is the best Tyre that can fit since i am not a racer but i like drive sometime 110 to 130km/p and seeking for a better grip while cornering too. Need your advise on this. Thank you.   This post has been edited by SkullRider: Apr 7 2014, 01:31 PM |

my experience: viva 1.0 AT..
best tyres are still kumho ku31. 165/55/14. tyre felt good after using for 4 years and about 40k kms.
have to replace them since it's already 4 yrs old
since it's not many tyre shops sell kumho, i have to opt for yokohama bluearth... felt more comfy but grip cannot compare with kumho..
