Recently change my 16" rim to 15".
Wow ... big difference in handling and pick up.
Obviious;y, 16" is too heavy and big.
15" ... Just nice... rclxms.gif

Hermm.. recently change from 15' 195/55/15 to 17' 205/45/17 with Eibach lowered spring..
Can say a lot different in stability when high speed n cornering, n no more boat floating feel.. but sacrifice a bit acceleration (but just a little bit, not obvious)

Yeah ... with 195/55/R15... the wall is higher hence the floaty feeling.
Maybe in the future I'd try 195/50/R15 ... with shorter wall ... less floaty(?)
With 17" or 16" .. this effect is lesser bcoz most of the height is the rigid rim.
Mine is J spec ... the pick up is horrible with rim higher than 15"
If i'm not mistaken the stock rim was 14"?

hey, just wonder my vios doing good in fc or not.
last tank 11.22km/ltr, with RON95.

still feeling not that saving. is it because still using mineral engine oil.

Right now i'm getting averagely 13km/L. Using semi 10w-40. Eneos
I also have Liqui Moly Ceratec in my engine. You should try this combo.
Vios 2012 J owner, 15" tyres

Also, how do you calculate your FC? Vios 2012 doesn't hv FC dispay in cockpit.
So I pump full tank. Reset 000 on my mileage meter.
Drive until the almost empty or the empty signal blinks.
Fill in (preferably) at the same petrol pump. Take my KM readings and the Litre reading to fill up full (to the point the nozzle shut off by itself)
Divide the KM and litre to get the FC reading.

well, i record the range km left display on dashboard, and pump up to full tank. ofcoz set distance to 0.

then going until the same range km appear on dashboard, and see how far do i drive.

then km / pumped ltr. so i got it 11.22km / ltr.

believe this might be accurate?

So you assume the petrol usage (litre) is what you pump earlier?
Then the KM reading is from distance set from 0?
Then you drive similar KM recorded on ODO?
Not too sure what u wrote. Just wanna clarify.

Your method got too many assumption so may not be accurate.
Try my method bro.
- Fill up tank until nozzle shut off automatically
- Reset 000 in distance reading.
- Drive like normal until tank almost 'E' or empty signal comes on.
- Fill up tank until nozzle shut off automatically. Preferably from the same pump nozzle for consistency
This litre reading is more accurate bcoz it's the petrol consume since you reset distance at 000.
- Take reading from distance in cockpit and divide with litre.

Maybe you'll be surprise to find you FC is better than you think. biggrin.gif

Guys, I need advise.
My rear spoiler 3rd brake light LED doesn't turn ON when braking.
How can I repair this? Is there a fuse I can change?
Much appreciated for any help.
