Hello BHPians, I had seen another Cruze with no front number plates. Is it legal to shift placement/remove number plates from the front or rear of the car?

Dear mate, good afternoon, welcome to tbhp forum, congrats for your 1st post. See as per law it is illegal to remove/change the position of the number plates from the OEM one. Penalty/Challan can be issued even on using fancy alpha-numeric fonts in delhi/ncr.

thanks

2 Things.

1. Matt black is a big no with matt red on the car. Plus, the red looks a little different and matt-ish too.

2. Metallic Red wheels with matt black. A big No No!

Seriously. I'm re-checking if I'm in the right thread! The Mafia Baleno and the Matt Cruze exhibit horrible taste.

Someone please post cars from Cochin :D

Here's the cure :D

Mods include

Tein Super Street with EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller)
Garett T3 turbo
Malpassi rising rate Fuel Pressure Regulator
Autotronic SMC standalone Engine management system
17" Lenso Samurai rims

Now thats what we are talking about, the Cedia is looking great in white and the list of mods also is great.

I just feel the engine bay(look wise) could have been better which could have complimented the car much better.

Edit : I guess he got the rims but was unable to source the tyres. Probably 245 was the best he got. Sourcing 20" tyres must not have been an easy task. :)

This car belongs to a friend, the car is running a Dual Concave Setup. Front and Rear both have 10.5J wheels. Front Tyres are 245/35/R20 Rear Tyres are 255/35/20. The whole tire upgrade is complimented by Coilovers from BC Racing. The profile on the tyres give a stretched look to the wheels, as desired by owner. Vossen wheels recommended these sizes for the particular look. The car looks amazing with big wheels and lowered stance!

So he must have done his homework before selecting the tires.

Another reason for going in for 245 tyres could have also been done to avoid fender rubbing. Gauging by the pics the rims seem to be slightly out when compared to the fender edge! But I fully agree with comments on the 20 choice which even on good roads = bad ride, read only a select bunch go for it when usage is more occasional/weekend oriented, I shudder to think how the ride would be on our country!

Damn. That is more than most of the mid size and some of the big sedans
