QUOTE(ronaldet @ Jul 25 2008, 05:13 PM) I'm drivin Saga Lmst...i'm thinkin watz the best size 2 fit my saga...do u think is wise 2 upgrade it 2 16inch? cuz the car wil b more stable during connerin..stock rim is 14 inch...wat about the performance after i upgraded it 2 bigger size rim?? 15" will be good for look and performance... 16" and above are more towards showcar already... all show and no go, u want??... as for performance, it is important to use good tyres.... wider tyres, but cheap capalang brand also do no improvement....

QUOTE(nd_4ever @ Jul 26 2008, 01:21 AM) If u want better acceleration with superior road gripping capability, then go for 15" with 195/50/15 for your Saga LMST. U can opt for 55 series but if your car's suspension is stock, then these 55 series tyres will scrap your rear fenders if full loaded with rear passengers.  I've seen LMST with 17" but running with adjustables & man, it looked ganas betul. mine is scrapping the front fender whenever full turning circle... my suspension previously meant for 50 series tyre.... ngam ngam clearance with fender... now using 55 series, dont even dare to do full turn...

QUOTE(tkhoo @ Nov 21 2010, 10:06 PM) Current is 185/R14....Pls advice why you advice me to use 205 and not 195? Thanks. Added on November 21, 2010, 10:09 pm14" direct to 16" can cause my 1.5A year 97 City low power? honda city performance still not that bad... upgrade to 16" rim still wont affect much... if u worry or care about losing performance, get lightweight 15" rim lo... UHP tyres are cheaper as well...
