Still ok at least... We need to train our right foot... So that it will become less heavy - lightly on the gas pedal... Hehehehehehe

But what can we really do... City ride really will consume more petrol... That is the "best" side of it laa... Hehehehehehe... sweat.gif  sweat.gif

You cannot be too light and make your car crawling too long under low gears... That will even consume more petrol. You need to let momentum take effect..

As I said before,

If you see no car no block in front, tekan kau kau ... let your car speed up consistently between 60-90km/h ..... (tekan smoothly lah .. actually tongue.gif )

Then when you drive in city ... you know more traffic light and stoppings .. just don't simply tekan kau kau then break.. it suck oil like hell..

For me, still trying to preserve the new car smell. No durian etc for the time being. I like it, but if really stinky, then need to clean..

Try to get a few leaves of screwpine (daun pandan), leave it in the car for few days, and you will get the freshness from nature..  rclxms.gif

Wanna ask, after I get my new forte, if I terus go shop trade in my tyre+rim, normally how much we can get? Then to change to new rim& tyre, how much it cost? For 2.0 forte can use stock 17 rim or should change to 16rim?
*
RM1500 they can offer. For Forte 2.0, still good. But if you can change at least RIM, more better.

Btw, mine is 2.0 litre..

Sometimes, I can feel minor vibration when stop at traffic light with hand hold the steering. What to do... cheaper car is like that. Cannot compare with Civic smile.gif

By the way, have u check out the tyre shop beside Vistana hotel?
I saw a lot of Lenso rims there~ but those are 17"
You may go survey as the staff are very friendly, coz I changed tyre for my Hyundai Getz recently, they provide good service.

Thanks ohde. I looking for 16inch to make my car more comfortable. I will try if got chance go to Vistana Hotel.

Guys,

That day I found Lenso Raiden rim in Penang: ProjectD and Samurai type. Very light. Is Lenso good and reliable tyre for Forte? Just a bit concern because our car is heavy 1.3tonne.

Guys,
I plan to replace my stock rim with Lenso ES6, or Raiden ProjectD type, do you think worth to replace it? I need to top up RM1K.

Wondering really help on acceleration and fuel consumption?

Due to budget constraint, will change the tyre some other time.

Please advice.

That could be fake ES6, or they willing to trade in my stock rim with higher price.

And how is your car perform after you get it replaced? Fc and Accel good?

My friend own a Forte 1.6sx 6speed with 17"rim
His brother own a Forte 1.6ex 4speed with 15"rim (old batch EX come with 15"rims)

He said the FC result almost similar for both.
So u judge yourself.

Sigh... What poisoned me now to change my rim is because he willing to trade in high for mine. I just need to top up RM1k for rim cost RM1600-1700. Also the Lenso rim looks more beautiful...

I afraid after one or 2 yrs later, they will not accept trade in anymore.

Why you ask? you want to trade in your rim too?
