I have completed 42000 km last month. It is July 2007 model Wagon R duo LXI. My long-planed wheel upgrade finally happened yesterday. I was wating for my car to reach 42000 km milestone, though I achived miles last month, had to wait for another some days coz the Alloy & Tubeless Tyres of my preferred brand & size were not in stock & the tyre dealer had to order & get the same.
So, finally alloy & tyre reached the dealer & I drove to his shop y’day and got the new shoes fitted on to my car.
Alloy: Aura (Model No.D3350) 13"X5".
Price: Rs.8600/- (for 4 pcs.)
Tyre: Infinity INF030 155/70/R13 (TUBELESS)
Price: Rs.1600x4=6400/- (for 4 tyre) with bill & warranty.
Air Comp.: Rs.400/-
Tubeless repairkit: Rs.250/-
Wheel Balancing & Alignment: Rs.300/-
Initial impression:
Alloys definitly enhances the looks of the car and the wheels it self is now a head turner!!!!!!!!!
I can feel better steering control, also feel steering is slightly light-weighted too. Braking has greatly improved, able to do tight corners at bit high speeds. Ride comfort is awesome, feels like driving on a carpet, just glides over pot-holes and rough patches with ease.
