Thanks Anekho.Stock tyres because tyres are still in great condition and also vitamin M deficiency.

shk8896,
Thats a nice ride you have, and the alloys go well with the car. I too have a year and half year old ritz, mine is a petrol though. Love it. Managed to clock almost 28k.

hows your car holding up? any rattles, just asking since ours have done almost same run. I have very recently started getting a strange rattle sound, from the boot. That does not happen when the boot is loaded up. I always think its because of the flap on the extra tyre in the boot. But havent manged to figure out yet.

govigov · 27th April 2011, 03:23

good choice of alloys.
please let me know if you are in the cochin area. would love to catch up.

Thanks.I have not noticed any serious rattles from boot.Is it from the spare wheel cover?

No I am in calicut.I also love to meet you people there.
One bad news.My dad got transfer to Kannur so he is now traveling by train.Therefore the car is now static for many days.Poor car.

gemithomas · 12th May 2011, 11:52

Nice alloys. Suits the car well. The price too is really inviting.

The amount of rubber left on the tyre is good. It seems that my Figo would need a tyre replacement around the 32K Km. Not sure if this is a good mileage. Our Fusion and Uno used to have a life of upto 40K km.

Klub Class · 13th May 2011, 11:11

I must say your selection is really brilliant. You know, I never thought that those allows would go well with your car when you had shared the images of the alloys before buying, in Facebook.

A couple of days back, I had spotted your car at the traffic signal near the Varkeys supermart. IIRC, you're wearing a red T-shirt. Even though I had waved my hands, it went unnoticed. Anyway, I'll catch you later.

shk 8896 · 13th May 2011, 15:00

Thanks Gemi and Amith for the comments.
The tire is in great shape because of my dad's mild driving style .Even my friend's 8k crunched Swift VXi doesn't have this much tread left on it.Guess it will last for 40k kms.
Which tire should we go for after that ?
Michelins or Yoko A drives ?

shk 8896 · 16th June 2011, 14:07

The car is now 2 year old and 30500kms old.Her birthday was on 5 th june ,sorry i wasnot able to report this earlier because of internet failure in my home .The service guys had done all the works and niggles were sorted well but also sponsered a mark on the Left side of the bonnet.Was not able to remove this even with diesel.Help needed.

Pics coming soon of our 2 year old
Sreehari.

govigov · 16th June 2011, 14:47

How are the monsoons coping up? pics???

dhanushmenon · 21st September 2011, 09:14

fantabulous choice of alloys. If i get something similar in cochin for the same rates, I would like to upgrade my figo too. Can anyone help me with suggestions, if available?

shk 8896 · 21st September 2011, 19:59
