renjiv2 175mm with 185mm, 10mm difference not much.

if change tyre when thread still good, waste money only. change to wider tyre which is 10mm difference is no difference.

change from 13" to 15" rims and tyres, that's have difference.

Besides looks..

Not necesarrily true..
Wider rubbers offer better grip in the dry.. the wider it is, easier to hydroplane..
Wider oso means itll have more rolling resistance n itll suck up wat little torque de little engine has n u will lose pick-up..
All trade-offs - never someting for nuthin

Thx a lot for advice. Front tyre was arnd 30-40% threat, rear arnd 50%. Was thought to change the pair of front 1st for wider tyre & exchange it to rear. If as said no much difference thn no point to change wider right?

Another question. If install anti roll bar on the stock car saga sv setup, does it make any difference for the car balance & cornering?

My point jz wanna make the car less bouncing & less leaning whn cornering without spent much on modifications. Plz advice & my apologies if the question been asked again on previous thread. Thx

Hi,'

Like l said earlier, there are trade-offs.. if u want better handling means a firmer suspension n wider tyres [ we are talking about dry weather.. here.. it seldom work for both..] n comfort n probably accelaration will suffer..
To me there is only a very slight difference [handling] in fitting those 'bars' - if  u want a more visceral experience change the springs [preferably a decent branded one like Eibach - at least got some semblance of comfort left..]

Noted & thx for the advice.

Any recommendation workshop arnd glenmarie shah alam & wat brand 15" rim + tyre wit reasonable price? budget below rm1500. If the workshop allow accept trade in the 13" steel rim better.

Oso plz recommended brand & price tyre for 175/70 R13 fit to steel rim. In case budget not allocated guess jz change tat size 1st. Coz jz now checked the tyre start cracking....

Deeply appreciate for all the advice. Thx
