did you mean the allloys in the pics are added by you? if yes, then yours is a VX and those alloys are standard, right?
if you have added new alloys, please do post new pics with the alloys... which make is the new tyres?

No no! I've added the alloys afterward. I have a 2.2 EX variant. It dint come with the alloys, I added them later and I went for the stock alloys option as I liked them better.
The tyres are 255/ 65/ R 16 Kuhmo Radials

Harjeev. That's a super looking beast. But how about some pics of the Safari before its bath! Somehow a sparkling clean white safari looks a little incongruous in such a rugged background!

BTW, how happy are you with the performance of the Kumho's? How do they compare with the stock tyres. I know this is not the correct thread for this question, but since you mentioned the tyres, I thought I'd ask.

Hey Guys,

Are there any visual external differences between the EX and VX variants other than the obvious badges?

The tyres are OK, but I think that on my next change I think that ill go with a little different tread pattern, with somewhat deeper groves. I really like the stock bridgestones i think that they are good for city driving

The EX 4x2 has no alloys where the VX comes with alloys as standard. Other than this and the badges there isnt any outside visible difference that i can think off.

Harjeev bhaji, nice ride, I am thinking about getting the same though I might go with aftermarket alloys. Very clean looking ride. Have you thought of tinting/sunfilm?

Raj, the front bumper looks really great in your TCIC. any idea if this will fit the 3.0, sicne teh front grille and lights seem to have been altered a bit.

Good god! That's quite a few SUVs. You're into construction, travel or rent a car business or something?

Great deal of vehicles!
These actually suit construction business.
Btw, do you work for the const. company or is it yours?
