A shop here in Nilai quote me 1.4k for the kit (PP material) including paint+installation. So the price should be around that i think, maybe more or less RM100 depending on your place.

Any one downgrade their rim to 15" from 16"?

What is the reason you want to downgrade?

Is also depend on your driving style and travel distance. The longer the routine travel distance, the more KM you can go

wow bro! thanks for the info!!

Issit already well known for wobbly feeling at 120kmph? and not my suspension problem ya?

I've slightly upgraded my tyre to 185-60-15 Potenza tyre.
for S spec 15 inch.
your recommendation - 195-50 , 205-45 is refer to 15 inch or 16 inch bro? if 15 inch , any reocmmendation?
for number 4- just my personal opinion - City chasis is stiff enough, i guess the problem wont be the chasis stiffness , it should be something to deal with the Air Turbulences so aerokit might work.
*
Not much different for 185/60 R15. Go for 195/55 R15 with harder side wall, you will feel the different. I'll opt for 195/60 R15 which is more comfort and stable as compare to stock tyre. Both size will fit to S spec 15" rim

thinking to change mines to 195/60 if im using comfort tyre and if performance tyre 195/55

will there be any problem for S spec to use 195/60/15 ? will it too big for the rim ?

anyone here with S spec 15 inch used 195/60 or 195/55 before? feedback pls
*
S spec rim can fit max 195.. i saw few s spec NHC using 195/60, looks not much diff as compare to stock. 195/55 with hard sidewall is the best looking but if wan comfort, go for 195/60

Ya that is quite impress for FC.

My friend who current drive City, he was drive from 2009 year until now, he said that City quite save for the FC compare to starting to drive until now, the FC getting lesser, mean the way he drive more the car FC can reach for lesser. I was get shock, even save FC compare to Myvi.

This is one of the point that City has hold this reputation
*
I owned Myvi EZI before my NHC. Long distance/highway NHC can beat Myvi, but for city/short distance, myvi still better. Btw, the FC shown on the ODO is not so accurate, always shown higher km/l than the actual.

Not sure if the source of sound is from the wiper water tank. Try to empty the tank or fill up and check if the sound still exists?
*
Yeah, I had discovered the same sound when water tank going down... complaint to Honda also no use, they can't do anything. Maybe is the design problem or the NVH not good..

hey guys,

anyone facing a problem with starting a car when the engine is hot/warm?

i'm having this issue now starting the car when it has been driven for a while. Eg. start my car in the morning, no issue.. drive the car for about 10 minutes to petrol station, and stop the car (shut down engine).. go buy some stuff (say about 5 minutes).. and when i try to start the car again.. it wont start.. it cranks but it wont start fully..

first i thought its a battery issue, but if its a battery issue, it should give me problems to start in the morning as well. And i just recently had my car serviced and ask them to check on batteries, they said it was still healthy. So i thought i wont have this issues anymore, but i was wrong!

googled around the net and saw some similar issues with other cars as well (hot/warm engine start issue).

So just wondering if any of you faced this issue before.

Have yet to have my car checked up, facing this issue for a week now.

I think not a recall but only for those having engine start issue, you may call Honda Malaysia to confirm

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...  thumbup.gif
And to my surprised, FC is better than be4.  icon_idea.gif
*
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?

175 is way too thin for our car but with 65 profile damn comfortable ride? Haha.

If you don't plan to change rim, 195/60/15 should fit I think.. its the closest to your current set up so the speedometer will not differ much.

I will change, maybe before end of this year. Haha.

195/60/R15 can fit to S Spec rim but will look like donut... I saw quite a number of S Spec using Continental CC5 195/55/R15, nice looking but not sure about the comfort and performance as compare to stock rubber

Planning to change to 195/55/R15 but the tyre shop don't accept to trade the 175/65/R15. Any one can recommend which tyre shop in KL/PJ accept this size trade in?
Or anyone interested on my 4pcs Michelin XM1 175/65/R15 (done 35000KM), PM me for best price smile.gif

a lot to be said on nitrogen but the only benefit i feel which is true is that they dont loose that much as compared to normal air ...

if normal air i have to top up every week, loosing 2 - 5 psi a week

if nitrogen in a month i only loose 2 - 3 psi
*
Something wrong with your rubber. I top up normal air every month, loosing around 3 psi only
