Newbie here~ Sifu-sifu out there , any recommended tyre for almera ?

is this ur ori size 185/65R15 ?

Been told by my mechanic to upsize the tire 195 55R15 to counter the gravity problem of Almera. Also, 195 55R15 tires are more common and can be easily obtained compare to the rare 185 65R15.

yup!

oh … will affect the fc significantly?

anyone know how does the tyres affect fc other than no enough pressure?

Not recommended from 185/65R15 to 195/55R15. The tyre size reduce more than 4%.

Normally shop recommend this size -->195/60R15. This size is use in Nissan Sentra.

195/55/15 will looks very small in Almera.

I changed to 195/60/15 and even that also looks small. At first, i plan to get 205/55/16 but 16" tyre too expensive and need to sacrifice on comfort side.

So i decided on 195/60/15. Gain 10mm width to increase stability and lose around 3mm height. If u compare 195/60 and 185/65, it didn't looks much difference.

I trade in my CC5 for XM2 for RM60/pcs

anyone knows any recommended tyre shops in Ipoh ? coz i live in Cameron~

This.

I am wondering if i opt for impul tuned suspension which lower the ride by 25mm, should i go also for 16" rim or i am fine with stock 15" rim? which configuration gives better comfort and handling?

Hi all, I am using stock 15" rim with ori spec tyres come with originally from my VL almera, which I would like to do an upgrade to 16" tyres and rims as same spec as the Aura Impul 16" offered under TC impul add on package. But i would prefer the aftermarket designs. Is there anyone here knows about the tyres and rim specs as as the impul one? Thanks a lot....
