Question: Did you have to make any changes to the suspension to fit those up-sized tyres? Does it rub on the arches?

No changes were made to suspension to fit those tyres . The tyres don’t rub on the arches at all.

I am pleasantly surprised that it can hold a 30+inch tyre comfortably.
Also, your pearlescent white paint looks really good.

Re: PICS : Tastefully Modified Cars in India

Here's my 2013 Swift Zxi. Very subtle mods - alloys and calipers painted, smoked headlamps and tail lights. Not sure if you can tell but I've got it lifted a little bit with spacers front and back for more ground clearance to avoid hitting stuff when driving on dirt tracks. No performance mods, all stock.

Re: PICS : Tastefully Modified Cars in India

A maths teacher from Kashmir has made this solar electric car. Even though the donor car is not mentioned in any articles (also wrongly mentioned as a Maruti 800 in some), it looks like a Nissan Micra from the 1980s.

Quote:
Bilal was always a car fanatic. Also, he loved studying cars and that’s why he spent 11 years building the car of his dreams. Bilal said he has so far spent a total of over 15 lakhs. In his innovation, he did not get any financial assistance from any sector and no one provided him with any financial assistance. ”If I would have got the necessary support, perhaps I would have been India’s Elon Musk,” said Bilal.

Going by the looks, I felt like posting this on the other thread but still posting it here for the idea and hard work gone into the car. Mods, please move it to a different thread if required.

Re: PICS : Tastefully Modified Cars in India

This car belongs to my friend and deserves a mention in this thread. It is a interesting build, he found this old Defender 110 and restored it but with a twist. The original engine was swapped by a Lexus v8 engine.The plan is to develop it is a overlanding vehicle.

This thing would look wicked with a slight drop in ride height and maybe a set of Rotiforms. Love the colour!

Re: PICS : Tastefully Modified Cars in India

Spotted this near Malleshwaram, Bangalore. A modified version of the S-presso with chunky tyres and what seems like a higher ride height too, which suits the car rather well

Re: PICS : Tastefully Modified Cars in India

Not a big fan of type conversions that is prevalent among owners of vehicles with a long on sales life. Removes the originality. But this one was modified to look like another generation!!! Not bad that it belongs to the wacky thread. Have seen LC200s being modified to look like LC300s recently, but this is the first time am seeing a Prado.

At first glance, I was like, "Ooh, a Prado"..."Wait, why is it looking small?"... "Maybe the alloys, but do new Toyotas have flared wheel arches?" "The steering wheel is so early 2000s Toyota. Heck, the interiors doesn't look like the J150, it is the J120s!!!"

Walked to the rear of the vehicle and was confused further. It had the latest rear tail lights too and the numberplate surround. Looks like they modified the quarter panel to fix the lights, smoothing out the sharp shoulderlines of the original J120 series.
