Even I am planning to upgrade the tyres to 185 profile. Still doing research on the which brand to go for. Bridgestone is ruled out as none of the bridgestone tryes come in profile which the Elegance variant has. Only choice would be between Yokohama and Michelin. Please let me know if you find out something about these. |

You get two Bridgestone tyres in 185/60/15: 1. B250 2. Turanza ER300 I am hearing good things about ER300 so far. |

You can see that the Rapid petrol MT is technically exactly same as the Fabia 1.6. Same to the last decimal place. Even the wheels are same. |

This is the VW strategy. The same goes with Vento petrol HL and the Polo1.6! Cheers! |

I am by no means an ICE expert but if you are looking at Fiesta Stock ICE kinda performance, a speaker upgrade with a good amp will definitely sound better. I am waiting for my Ambition to be delivered but I have already bought the ICE. My setup is as follows. Infinity Reference 6032cf - Rear, Infinity 609CS - Front, Infinity Reference 475a Amplifier. |

Hey hey hey... I am not sure if anyone has pointed out this before. I was just going through the specs of Fabia 1.6 and thought lets compare those with Rapid 1.6 petrol MT and what do I see... You can see that the Rapid petrol MT is technically exactly same as the Fabia 1.6. Same to the last decimal place. Even the wheels are same. Fabia 1.6 never took off, so it was a great plan to reuse the material from it for the Rapid. IMO, Skoda have done a smart job of reusing the stuff they had. I did not find a mention of this even in the official review here. Sorry, I ain't nitpicking, this is just FYI for all. |

What a review! It was beautifully crafted, and as detailed as ever.. Kudos to Samurai and Vid6639, you guys did an awesome job... This Team-BHP review was absolutely instrumental in helping me decide which car to buy... and yes, I did book a Rapid TDI Elegance! (test drove pretty much all of them in under 23lakhs). Thanks! |

Great info. I had checked the Bridgestone website and didn't find this profile. Proabably I missed something. Thanks so much !! Also, I am looking for something which has got good ride quality, long life (atleast 40-45K) and less road noise. Any idea, which will suit my requirements ? Not too much worried about the performance part. Most of the driving will be in dry conditions. |

Hi Kryptonite, taking a leaf from what you said... why did you chose a Rapid out of all cars under 23Lacs? Why not Laura if it was in your budget. I'm asking as i'm in the same boat as you. |
