Hey Karan(and MODS and priince85) thanks bro for clearing the confusion as yesterday the post dates were messed up or i dont know what happened. But anyways i would most definately recommend you smoking the rear lamps and its perfectly safe at night. I guess Arush had already suggeted the same on a different thread about smoking lights when you had posted there. Do check out his website Autopsyche - Racing Techniques and check out the Corolla there.

Yeah the earlier rims looked BLING i still have them , but i wanted the 15" setup for a while and was wanting to experiment a new look (the car is looking sportier - FINALLY).
With this SETUP , il again SAY im enjoying every bit of it . This SETUP has the foll. Advantages ;

1) Better Ride Quality
2) Better pick up (though im loosing out on the traction because of the 30k old tyres)
3) Better FE
4) Steering feels lighter
5) & no need to be overcautious on BROKEN TARMAC / POTHOLES (i.e. what we have to be in case of low profile TYRES)

BTW just thought that even the lights smoked out with the same colour as the alloys would look smashing man!

Man Arush always manages to stun people with the freshest and sexiest stuff out there. Check out the other cars on his site most of them are not what you see often.

Totally agree with you. Some of the designs are simply amazing!!
And the alloys always suit the color combo; not once have I see a car whcih could have had better alloys put on it. Superb job!!

Check with any of the modifiers in bombay or ask the guy who painted your alloys to do the job for you.
