hi all sifus, i have some questions about rims i'd like to find out more.

ok, 1stly, i'm driving a used Kenari. the previous owner changed the stock rims from 14" to 13". was this a smart thing to do? is it recommendable that i continue using these 13" rims or change back to 14"? what're the pros n cons of using smaller or bigger rims?

2nd part is, if i want to change the rims, any brand recommendations? mid ranged ones lar. where's the best place to get em? i know nuts about rims.

thank you all so much in advance

what is? i have absolutely no idea about rims. u can laugh but pls do tell me wutcha laughing about so i can learn. thx

yeah i know, and i'm stupid too to have taken the car. that time din know anything until i went to change tires, then only i found out they're actually 13 inchers.

but what're the cons of having 13" rims? for a kenari. atos also using 13" rims right?

phew, guess there's no harm in using 13". but about the cheaper tyres , not really. coz the last time i went to change my 2 back tyres, the mechanic told me not many brands r available for 13". it was either Simex(ngam ah?) or Yokohama. Yokohamas were RM170 a piece! i took Yokohama coz from what i heard Simex tyres r...not so good. OR DID I GET CONNED? no gua coz i asked at 2 diff tyre shops, both also told me the same thing.

so what rims brands can you sifus suggest to me? something mid ranged in terms of quality & pricing but looks not bad either. haha like asking for so much.
