Thanks for your opinion..Currently i am using 205/45R17..high fuel comsupmtion. I in the midst of changing it back to stock rims size either 14" or 15" reason is because I am going to  travel at 60km per day next month onwards. blush.gif 

so what you think the Vios 2007 G spec rims? what size of tyre that the rim can fix? 185/60R15 or 195/55R15? rclxub.gif

Sometimes it's not just the tyre that caused u high FC. Ur using 17' rims which is heavy for Vios that developed for 15' stock wheel size, which mainly due to the low torque engine. Unless ur rims are those super lightweight model like OZ superleggerra.

For example, Ford Focus TDCi can runs average 750km per full tank of diesel, even on 17' rims; thanks to it's powerful 350Nm torque turbo diesel engine.

I would suggest u take 15' with 195/60 for the balance of FC and adequate gripping. Stock is 185. That additional 10mm contact on each wheel won't kills u much and at the same time giving u better grip. Why not?

Hope this info helps.
