i'm using 185/55/R16, much more comfort compare to stock tyres... wanted to look for 205/50/R16 PS3, but the boss keep saying stock rims cant fit 205 and would hit the fender hardly after out from his shop because there's a sliding slope to
main road. So he strongly not recommended..

Yeah the stock rim is too narrow to fits a 205. You need 205/45 to force it to fit without hitting the fender.

That's why I'm thinking of changing rim already. And downsize while I'm at it. Haha.

ya, might get the rims from Singapore if cant find any suitable in JB after a year. anyway 205/55/R16 would fit without hitting the fender right?

Anyone reduce to 15" instead of 16"? please share the feelings..

205/45/R16 you mean? If so, I think should fit, I remember there's someone here using it already with the stock 16" rim. Can't recall who.. should be in this thread somewhere.

but thickness 45 too thin and feel bumpy...... gonna survey more for next changing.. lol

I changed my Rims juz to fit the 205 profile tyre. Actually 205 tyre can fit with our Ori rims but will look very ugly (Donut look).
Aim to change 205/50/R16 tyre but hard to find for Yoko A Drive R1 thn at last pasang 205/45/R16. Abit bumpy but stable...
And to my surprised, FC is better than be4.

yeah, my next aim is change the rims to fit 205 profile tyre. better with thickness 55 from PS3.. haha.. i cant go for 45 as the road i'm driving in jurong island is uneven all the time. even when I back to hometown also passby those outskirt place with uneven road, not advisable for me.

205 sure will be nice eh.. maybe I should go with 205/55/R15

R16 is going to be really expensive with that size right?

i checked PS3 (205/50/R16) is around RM450-470....

R15 a? aiks, dont poison me.. i wish to stick with R16... haha...

The best tyre to change is 205/50, the speedo reading wont run much from the actual speed. I think 55 is too thick edi, cant fit and will not look nice. 50 is the best. Next tyre change, I will change to 50. Now 45 abit bumpy.

205/50/R16
Speedo Reading:
65 mph (104.61 km/h)
Actual Speed:
65.16 mph (104.86 km/h)

205/55/R16
Speedo Reading:
65 mph (104.61 km/h)
Actual Speed:
67.34 mph (108.38 km/h)

thanks for your info, definitely go for 205/50/R16 for next changes. how much the rims you get. any pic can share?

470 x 4 piece

If you got budget, stick with R16. It looks really nice with our car.

I'm downgrading for comfort and price only, if got budget I'll stick with R16 too. Haha.

at least gonna try for once.. lol..

now using xm2 (185/55/R16) also cost me RM340 x 4pcs...

Of course, please do. Don't forget to take photo

Btw, Michelin XM2 (195/60/R15) RM240 - RM270 only

Not sure how ugly it will look though.. hahaha.

Here is my ride...

Currently using Yoko S drive 205/50/16 on uneven road sometimes will hit the fender i think our stock spring are quite soft..

Btw anyone using continental tires? Conti MC5 good any review?

Well im using nexen 6000...planning to change to S drive like ur profile...how is it compare to michellin?.

Nice wheel set bro...

Ala bro too small la pulak. Got bigger pic?

Weird, FC better with wider tyre? Btw, will it affect much on the height as compare to 185/55 since the overall diameter is smaller?
