This one is 185/65R15. What is the handling difference actually i put a 185/65R15 tyre and 185/55R15 tyre? They looked very similar to me.

So when i change from 65 to 55, will PC notice it is less speed while the tyre is spining the same?

Wider tyres give better handling, but worse FC. How to choose a less noisy tyre? bigger rim?

wow... so in the end.. what is best tyre for PC ? Which does not effect handling and boost quietness + fuel consumption.

Anyone here change their tyre on PC and recommended mileage before change all the tyres ?

Expressway's rest area sounds good! PLUS Sungai Buloh rest area with overhead bridge restaurants ? We can park at both sides

Maybe Geng Corner - Upin Ipin @ Section 13 Shah Alam or Ulam Desa @ Bukit Jelutong (both places ample of parking and bright)

Theoretically in 100m as example..ofcourse 65 tyre will reach 1st than 55tyre... But practically PC will try to change its behaviour to adopt new setting and we will less noticed... Speed same but more spin...

To better result...change together with rims..then maybe 55 or even 50 with 16' will behave like oem...plus we can put wider tyre...

Can check some website to calculate suitable rims & tyres to replace oem spec...

Speed on speedo will maintain when u change different out diameter tyre, FC will look good if you change to a smaller diameter but you are actually traveling lesser distance which means bad real world FC, vice versa if you use bigger diameter tyre. Tested and proven on my car.

I will be changing my tire to XM2 185/65/R15, I think it's better to have larger diameter as our speedo is already slower than real world speed, just use your GPS to prove it.

I believe Prius c if driven gently, the tyre can last you at least 60k to 80k. My good year thread wear 240 is still like new after 40k km.

In term of tyre, I find that the stock tyre is lacking grip as the chasis is quite stable for high speed cornering.

I assume this isn't done by Toyota right? If so, wouldn't it void your warranty since it involved cable cutting?

Wow, is too deep & not a minor scratch anymore.

Guess you need some DIY touch up paint to fix it or send to paint shop to touch up?

Yes i did at GLS Auto USJ7... No need to worry much about warranty..i dont think it will void the whole car warranty.. What if the guys who bought PC without multimedia system when they want to install it themself outside? I believe with the product n brand...good product n brand will only have few problem but not major...although i dont have experience with toyota... But with 5years no problem with honda...and almost 3years with mitsubishi recond absolute no warranty..the car actually 8years old...i didnt face any kind major defect...
My point is i just add or enhanced security features...not modifying with fancy things...
Otherwise u can try plug n play device...
