my car is 4 months old, i already check my car fenders, there are some oily black kind of thing, i believe is caused by the rubber rubbing by the offset rims, now looking to change rims, aihh...

here's an old pic, as u can see the rear tires is out a bit


@zerohunter

hey bro.... ur car is 4 months old i dont think your absorbers problem.
Since you found out some blackie oily stick on your fender then it will be your tyre rubber..

Rota Rims right? 16x8JJ offset cant found on net. but most of the rota rims offset are quite marvelous. tongue.gif
i saw 16x8JJ +20 in the market too... laugh.gif

You may look for 16x7JJ +40 to +35.
hope this help. Cheers icon_rolleyes.gif

dont think front one will give any massive different.
install ARB, then u can feel totally different.

*as what have others said la...  laugh.gif

yup ARB is most effective among those bars.

QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 31 2013, 03:02 PM)
160? Got so cheap ah? If any one found this price better buy alr. But the rear ARB is the killer. Double or more the price of tower bar. Now I am also thinking if I want to add front and rear lower strut bar.
*
i saw some group they did the group buy at RM160 per pcs.
ARB is around RM480 if not mistaken.

Yeap Adjustable is the best.

QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 31 2013, 03:11 PM)
I have yet to read on adjustable, so I do not really know how it works.

By adjustable they mean that the setting can only be changed by tuning the suspension. It is not like what the K9 is having, adjustable from within the cabin, Full Load Mode, Sport Mode, Normal Mode right?
*
Full adjustable Soft/Hard and Hi/Lo can do alot of things according to your favorite.
Some of the ppl would like to adjust it till the lowest or maybe highest or softest or stiffest depends on what kind of usage. Full adjustable can use on road or track.

My old car had been installed Full Adjustable, Stiff Ring, Strut Bar, ARB and Room Bar. The feeling is superb but big hole on my pocket.

anyone of you have tried DIY to change the front Position Light before?
As i found it's quite difficult to take out the light. No matter how hard i pull it but then still can't remove it.

And i read somewhere they said need to dismantle the headlight to do it.
Is it true?

And what is the bulb size of position light? It seems like an T10 light bulb.

Thanks and cheers.

It's okie bro....
GAB maybe can get very cheap if you know the dealer's boss or the Distributor Boss well.
I bought my GAB SS (Super Street) for myvi is around 2.2k.
Not sure abt for Forte. but price should be around there.... biggrin.gif

But after using it for less than a yr switched to other better brand of adjustable. laugh.gif

may i know the reason u switch to other brand of adjustable?
btw, is IMP better than GAB since both are local brand

well at 1st to support friend's product then after used my friend's adjustable no regret at all.
Street and track use as well. Thumbs up for that brand.

Ya IMP/GAB are local products. Didnt use IMP product before but then i know they are quite famous for normal absorbers. If not mistaken they named it after Improve.

Stock rims are 17x7JJ +48 offset....
so if go for +38 to +40 should be no problem and also depends on the rims' width.
I'm thinking to change SSR Type F 17 but then after fitted in car the design looks like 16''.. Lolz....

Roughly around RM1750, haven't seen it in person so I'm not sure whether it's too dark lol..but meh..i'm fine with it being dark lol... the darker it is the better haha...the offset is +45 so i guess there shouldn't be a problem.
*
7.5JJ? Hmmm..... offset +45? Hmm... better ask them fit with your tyre and put in the car 1st...
see if there is any rubbing on your absorbers or not.
