Hello! i'm new and need advice.

Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

Look @ tyre sidewall. It's written there

205/55/R16 -> 205mm width, 55 profile, 16" rim
 
Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

If you don't have to change tires now .... Decide on your rims first before you buy the tires.

You sure 17" is what you want ?
 
Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

225/45/17 is a very common wheel size, I am sure you can get almost any tyre you want. Decent ones typically cost around $200/pc.

Tau sar bao, she alr say her tyre botak.

Like what d8 said - bigger rims looks better but got some trade offs. Just think it through ....

How much does rims usually cost? any attractive package? I got this from Hankook just now, MAK DTM rims + Vredestein tyres S$3050 and MAK DTM rims + Hankook tyres S$2765. What are the popular rims around?
 
Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

I think you better come and meet some ppl before u commit to any of these things. Not sure what kind of rims are those (I've never heard of).

Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

All i can say is that do enough research before the mod. Don't come here & KPKB after that.
 
Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

From A1 ?

Authentic Mak seems to be of Italian origins ....... Anyway do research on the offsets as well so that it flushes against the fenders.

Quite heavy.

Re: Hello! i'm new and need advice.

Shandy, MAK rims from italian, 2weeks back i was at hankook woodlands checking out the rims. For BMW they only carry Rims. They have Japanese Wedsports very light and nice which i used on my previous wrx. Their hankook tyres i have been using past 5yrs, still ok. But so far they dont have runflat tyres for 18" and above.

Daily street use V12 good enough. If occasionally track, use S1 evo. If monthly track, use their RS3.

Shandy, meet RBB first...

P.S. you should try out one of our rides on the 18" or larger rims (with stock suspensions) first. See if you like it. Some gals hate a rough ride... Either next meetup, or you can call me next time u are in the north or CBD.
