How did u test?
Stiff ring is to reduce undercarriage noise and vibration. If you expect to improve handling significantly then u need to add UR bars or change Absorbers.

just feeling before and after...cant feel significant different...

mayb u r rite...need to change absorbers to improve comfort feel when pass through uneven road...

Before anything, consider changing rim to 16". Absorber change can wait.

Like I said previously big rim ride feels funny. Im saving for 16" rim with thicker tyre profile like mc5. smile.gif

initially i also ask to downgrade to 16" but the type shop fellow told me hard to find 16" with 5 hole fit our forte...

and the design not nice too...

now looking any solution to improve car comfort level...

Toyo cost you almost 2k? Which series oh?

17" low profile is nice to drive, hard to sit in.

Honestly, try Ultrex.. EA Autoworks sells them. Good performance and also less brake dust.. PM me when you are free to head over to Bukit Jalil area, i could let you test drive my car to feel the brakes before you make a decision.

Forget to add, Coupled with Stainless Steel Braided Hose by SuperCircuit.

do you know what is the price tag for ultrex?

Allignment look for a good tyre shop. They do a better job at a lower price.

What is your RPM at idling? Mine felt vibrating a little as my rpm is some sort like 600rpm.
*
same...above 500 bar abit...so guess is 600RPM.

but vibrating is annoying....

no its for papago...not speednavi. Create a new folder named 'Papago' extract to this folder. No need to delete the Speednavi folder. Just create new one and change the navi path file in the HU settings.

3 files were shared just now. 1st was the full papago, second was the latest map and 3rd was by zero which included the voice thgy. You extract all 3, copy the 3rd into 1st, then if you want the latest map just copy the 2nd into the maps folder which will be available in the 1st extract. Hope its not confusing.  rclxub.gif

its work now...TQVM...

Morning all sifus,

My kia forte 1.6 rear mirror view is blur after tinted. Before it tinted, the view is also blur but after tinted worser especially during night time. The view of front light of others car light will scatter a bit when looking at the back. Is it normal or is it due to my tint film? FYI, my tint is not security film, it's just normal solar tint. Thanks.
*
if you not see from rear mirror, see from the driver seat, still similar like see from rear mirror?

i'm using Llumar, faced the same thing, if see from rear mirror, looks very blur at nite.

but see from driver seat...its normal view.
