Do you think is recommendable to do coating for new car? How long can the coating last btw?

Have anybody tried before change rim for new car, will it void the warranty if I change back to the same 16 inch rim?

Actually I saw the promotion RM149 for new car.. Thought of doing coating after getting my car but is it recommendable since the paint of the car is still new?

Added on December 16, 2012, 1:23 pmYou changed yours already? I just saw a rim which I fall in love with the 1st sight.. 16 inch with 8holes on it for RM1000.. Since forte EX is using 16 inch rim, thought of changing the rim only..

I try ask my SA once I meet him to collect the car

Try to search for the PG clay and sealant. Hope normal supermarket do sell it Yeah, budget la do myself sambil can exercise also..

Only can use 5 holes? the sport rim comes with 8 holes. Hard to find sport rims with 5 holes. Normally 4 or 8 holes.

How much you did yours and where is the place? Wow, if can last for 5 years then it worth it!

After done coating, just send for carwash will do (since I also malas person)

I want to change into this 16 inch rims.. Check out guys, what do you think?

But this is 8 holes, not sure whether can fit in Forte with 5 nuts and will it void the warranty?

How much you pay for coating? Previously you say RM700 but now I see got discount 80% which is only RM150.


Can see but can't use. Really love this both rims but too bad cant fit inside forte. Need to find back rims with 5 holes with the exact match

How about this guys? 16 inch with 5 holes But abit pricey

Added on December 24, 2012, 2:29 amSorry bro, prefer my 16 inch tyres as the it is soundless when im driving and cheaper if next time I change my tyres. You can alwis trade in both tyres and change to 16 inch with nicer rims.

When I test drive for 17 inch, I can hear the tyre running on the road as maybe due to wider surface. Then I try survey, heard if you are a fast driver, the 16 inch is better as more grip.

Yes it depends on your tyre pattern. Higher quality is better but of cause more costly.

16 inch of cause is cheaper thann 17 inch in terms of maintaining. Just bigger tyres look more elegant and safety

Bare in mind, bigger tyre may bring more fuel consumption as due to heavier. Forte only 1.6, so I tink is not neccessary for 17 inch unless you driving 2.0.

A fortian in LYN here jz change from 17 inch to 15 inch. Read back his previous post

Lol

Posting my dream car which it will never come true. Hahaha.

All buy Toto this week hahaha ! Whose number come out, belanja TT session

Wish you all Happy Merry X'mas!!

I pump shell last two days, use shifter to buka the engine since new car drove for 150km, just drop one and the half bar.. What kidman say is true, i think need to get use to our legs on the accelerator as press and releasing often can cause FC..

Previously i drove manual, can judge base on gear, but auto not use. If press hard, it will drop gear to pick up. So i tried maintain constent speed and make sure RPM dont go above 3000..

Malaysia road is getting more horrible.. Everywhere lubang and bumpy road.. Just now night never see, went pass the hole.. Lucky not driving fast..

Any tyre expert here, who can recommend what tyre is good for 16' inch and how much the pricing?

Merry Xmas to all my fortian and remember to jingle on the highway

I read through online what can cause FC:

- Bigger wheels would be an increased body weight, and greater traction due to their increased width, both having an adverse result on the vehicle's acceleration.

- One should consider the vehicle's horsepower (hp) before deciding on upgrading the tyres. If the hp is low, it will not improve performance by enlarging the wheel size. For example, a great majority of cars in Malaysia fall into the 1.3 to 1.6 litre passenger vehicle category. Most cars in this category weigh 1 to 1.2 tons and make between 115 to 135 hp, and use 185/60R14 tyres. In these cases, some performance gains may be actualized if the tyres were changed to 185/65R14, or if the width was reduced to 175mm. However, most owners choose instead to change to 195/50R15 or even 195/55R15, which only serves to increase weight and subsequently, fuel consumption.

- Some sport rims is heavier than the standard rims. This will cause higher fuel consumption of you car.

- Inefficient driving styles result in poor fuel efficiency, which ultimately leads to higher fuel consumption. A few changes to your driving style could provide a really noticeable difference and a very important method of reducing your fuel consumption.

- The amount of vehicle fuel consumed as a result of overweight and obese passengers.

Hope this clarification may help


I think I will stick with 16 inch cause I just love my rims Thanks for your info! I will try on yokohama series for my next change of tyres.. Planning to put sticker to my original rims. What do you guys think? Nice or fugly?

You mean low gear when you pick up? So far mine 16'inch is smooth but heavy just when passenger are filled up..

Maybe 17'inch wheels should pump Ron97 for better acceleration and pick up.

Do anyone know where got sell and pasang KIA FORTE OEM GPS DVD MULTI MEDIA PLAYER? How much roughly?

Thinking of installing in my Forte EX
