Guys , have switched to STOCK rims (15" setup , with Potenza G IIIs , 205/60) ... the cars seems to be on a ROLL since then ... have to get the allignment done + a STUDD was broken during the tightneing of the NUT (front left wheel) Axles bearing also has to be changed it seems because while taking a U-turn the rattling sound comes.
Planning to paint my Stock Rims body colour not sure what finish ( Matte / Natural Gloss-need suggestions)

How about going for Matte Black instead. Mclaren had Matte Black Corolla rims on his Baleno and they looked pretty good.

I want BODY COLOURED ... something different ... if my car colour would have been of a lighter shade i would have opted for matte black without any fuss but and im sure that body coloured would look good ... was just not sure about the finishing. I think the natural gloss look would go well. Sending the car for the repairs tomorrow .. have to act on it fast.

[quote=karan561;632616]Thanks a lot , i wonder why these lights are called ANGEL EYES .... ???? when they give the car a killer DEVILS LOOK , it should be known as DEVILS EYE actually

Bro first of all AWWWWWWWWWESOME RIDE!!!!....Hell! like everyone even i would say i didnt quite like the Corolla in terms of looks but you have sure changed a lot of perceptions.cheers:

And these lights are called "Angel Eyes" because of the blue ring as blue is synonymous with peace and angels....
The "Devil Eyes" headlamps come with blood red rings and really remind you of the devil when fitted on a car. Wish i had pics but i did see one on this forum itself so i'll try and find the link.

Well have sent my CAR to the garage & have switched to STOCK rims (15" setup , with Potenza G IIIs , 205/60) ... the cars seems to be on a ROLL since then ...
I have given a TO DO list to my tuner ;

1) Allignment

2) STUDD was broken during the tightneing of the NUT (front left wheel)

3) Stock Rims have to be painted body colour Natural Gloss

4) All four Discs have to be changed + All the Brake Pads (Brakes were down 90%)

5) Power Steering Fluid has to be changed.
