i was trying to get michelin PS3 215/50/r17 tomorrow,
but the shop owner said 50 profile not suitable for forte cause will damage the gearbox in the long run. anyone can clarify this?? i need 50 profile thick tyre cuz last week i experience my atlantis v5 'pecah' after i hit some pothole. i was thinking 55 profile actually. anyone tried?? |

QUOTE(brainz07 @ Jan 5 2013, 03:07 PM) wahhh...damage gearbox?? that why im trying to get sifu here to make it clear,, using 50 profile tyre will affect gearbox or not? I already changed to 50 profile with sport rim..lighter than stock rim..suddenly butterfly in my stomach  but if you change to 55 surely you have to change tyre & rims to 205/55/r16.. Added on January 5, 2013, 3:13 pm For no 1. if you used auto car boot lifter (the spring), then it a bit hard to close..based on the spring setting.. If i'm not mistaken from previous thread, can set the rubber or this one just for bonnet?? QUOTE(ddsu @ Jan 5 2013, 03:04 PM) Using my car for 10 days. 2 things want to ask: mine is just fine. not experiencing any above. or i just dont care ?1. My carboot little bit hard to close. Is it normal for new forte or it just mine. The sound also not as padu as closing persona m-line carboot 2. Power window (driver side only) having this "clack" sound when i try to pull the switch after the window is fully shut |

Just change to HID. After that realize that my left light is kinda lowered. Go to SC they said cannot claim warranty because already modified to HID. Anyone know wer to get 1? "Lampu besar" is ok. Just the "lampu tinggi". Same level

QUOTE(Pheonix @ Jan 16 2013, 10:44 PM) Hello. Apa khabar. New white forte owner here 1.6 sx 6 speed, received today. While driving, found out that bila lepas steering, kereta akan ke kiri sedikit. Need to do alignment later. But is it normal for a new car? Why average starting from 8l/100km, then drive around city for a while then it slowly turn to 9L/100km ? My km still below 1000km. high FC for city drive. 9-12l / 100km, normal 1....mine average 11l/100km always..  |
