Guys, can I ask those 2013 batch Forte 1.6SX.

Is your tire Silverstone V7 or M5?

I just notice my tire went to service last 2 weeks and now I just went to wash my car notice from V7 -> M5.

After service I went off to HK trip and now my tires look old, impossible 10k service my tires look like that, even so I previously have some hole repairs were not there.

So I suspect my tires all 4!! have been changed.

Im very frustrated because I have no proof!!

Really no more stock for Forte. There is still a strong demand but Naza can't supply anymore, as the assembly line has been changed for Cerato only and no more KD packs from Korea for Forte.

I have talked to my service center. Normally, one technician is assigned to one car for servicing, hence chances of swapping your tires with that of other car unintentionally is highly unlikely.

As for the type of thread on your tires, can you compare your 4 tires to your spare one in your boot? If the thread pattern matches, then they are the same.

This should not be excuse ma sifu...far mean , sleep more the night before to get more energy, else do more stop over to refresh yourself....

I always wonder 110km/h vs 190 km/h can shorter HOW much of your travel time ?? 50% ?

Sametime HOW many times dangerous have you increase to yourself , passenger and driver out there...

Just my 2 cents. 110km/h set there for a reason....else there is no need speed limit set wink.gif
*
Hahaha... sifu apa pulak niii...
Above is so subjective, it's depend on individual driving style and years of driving skills experience too...
Some people sleep more to get an energy but it's not applicable to me, i feel the journey so long & although i've enough rest, i still sleepy...
But when i drive more than 110km/h, surprisingly no sleepy at all. I believe it's bcoz my eyes & brains works so hard to ensure i'm aware what's happen surrounding me when i go faster.
I can drive w/out a rest even on friday after a whole day work at office. Normally i'll start my journey sharp at 00:00am...
Dangerous to me is my responsibility but to other drivers, i try to minimum the risk at all. That's why i choose to start travel at midnight when there's less car on the road...
And 50% shortage time is achievable because u no need to stop at RnR at all...
Compare to 110km/h, I need to stop at least 3 times to rest my leg, drink & eat... which will increase my travel time...

Anyway thx for the advise...

Don't have the official figures, but I do know that Naza sells about 600-700 units Forte on average. So from late 2009 til mid 2013 or approximately 3 years, if we take average of 600 units a month, that would work out to around 21000 units on the road.
