Got tires and alloys done yesterday. Took these pics from my mobile when i was admiring her in the morning.

Tyres Yoko A Drives 195/60 R 15
Alloys X2

Also got the gearlock, Film and number plate fixed yesterday. Planning to get the ICE in coming days. Suggest me what should i do with a budget of 20K. What i am planning is a Basic Pio HU with USB and AUX capabilities along with basic JBL components in the front and an AMP with a sub at the back. If the need arise maybe two coponents on the rear doors but that i will decide in the future. I took a demo of the same yesterday and i feel it should be enough.

congrats switch finally you bought swift vdi, nice looking alloys and good choice of rubber. do post some better pics.

and for ice 20k is little less for a good setup.

hu 5/6 k
fronts 6k
rears if you want 3k
amp 6 to 10 k
sub+enclosure 5k
wiring,damping,installation 3k

total approx 30k.

its a lock which locks the gear lever in reverse gear. it helps to prevent the car from theft
