I would suggest u to stick with same stock n just get decent set of rubbers n good set of 5J rims....u will have improved grip n will enjoy the good ride quality...also u will get the mighty maruti FE Quote:
1.) 13x5.5 rims with 185/65 R 13 tyres

Perfect upsize but U wont feel much difference from the stock...
Not sure if this size will not touch anywhere.... Quote:
2.) 14x6 rims with 185/60 R 14 tyres

Good upsize if u are a highway blaster....
Good handling at the cost of poor ride...n go for 5.5J rims.. Quote:
Also can somebody help me out in deciding the correct offset. I have seen aura provides rims with 38 and 40 as offset. Which one sud i choose

Dont think it will cause much difference....38 & 40 hardly any difference... Effects of offset
