Sorry to hear what had happend to you.

Know what you are going through as it hapened to me 2 weeks ago.

Faulty Autogate remote. While I was reversing out the gate suddenly
closed on me just when the side mirrors were about to pass. the
impact......broken left side mirror....have not got spare yet. at the
moment...taping it with high durable electrictape to the body......pai
sai man.....imagine the hurt......

01 week later the gate closed in again....chipping some paint of the
right rear skirting on the right side.... double pai sei....

Best Regards

I am contemplating on getting some promo prices for an item known as auto-
seal. You pump it into your tires and in the event of any nails or
sidewall rifts, this product will protect your tire from rupture. It is
claimed to also improve fuel efficiency and make the tire last an
additional 30% longer. The more I think about it, the more worthwhile of
an investment this seems...just reading Nick's story sends shudders as
all the inconveniences and incidental damages seem to be many times the
cost of this product. Anyway, to get some better prices, I will need a
group. Any interested parties? Before purchase, I will request for demo
for all who are interested.

I am trying to get 10 persons first...at least it constitutes some volume
to get better pricing.

Could I make a claim for my tyre which is punchered beyond repairable as
it is still within the stipulated 1 year warranty coverage ? Big Smile

Can the Nabira be fitted with 18's. I've got a set of Goodyear F1 from my
bro's Alfa for free. :)

I was contemplating 17s but along came the tyres. Still new.

18" ? Have to use very very very low profile which reaulting very very
very unconfortable ride !

18" 's rubbrer , too expensive to maintaince

17" is the max recommended..215/45/17 is the tyre size , i am using
215/45/17 on my Toyota , very bumpy liao....

and Makan Minyak too...So go for looks or go for practical ?

Me using 18s on my Perdana V6, tat's why my bro gave me the tyres. Now evil
thoughts of having 18s on the Chevy have lingered coz then I buy rims only.

Car might be more sluggish with heavier wheels and passengers might need to
be strapped in for the bumpier ride.
