| ![]() I'd say the XM2 is a safe bet. I chose the Earth 1 because a few friends had it on their cars and have had a good experience with it. I did consider the XM2 as well, along with the Continental MC5. |

I took delivery of my Jazz couple of days back & got it with Good Year Assurance 175/65. Heard these are better than GT3. Can I stick with these for a while or should I opt for an upgrade. I drove around 100 kms since delivery. Will i get a better price for trading. | |

| ![]() Hi Friends, I own an 2015 Honda Jazz SV IDTEC Urban Titanium and looking to upgrade from my stock steel rims to alloy wheels. I have decided to buy Neo wheels but couldn't finalise a design yet(owing to multiple options) and hence thought of sharing the ones I liked to know your views. I am not upgrading my tyres for now and currently on my stock MRF ZVTVs. Kindly let me know your views by having a look at the pictures of alloy wheel designs posted below. Personally I liked black alloys and have sorted them(alloys) in the below referred order of preference 1.Athlete 2.Sync 3.Alpha 4.Turbo 5.Inferno Would like to know your taste/preference here. Also please feel free to suggest any other Brand/Design if you believe that it would suit the 2015 Jazz Urban Titanium. |

Infractions: 0/1 (5) | ![]() Hello Folks My Jazz's tyres are due for a change, they've run 42K. The originals are Michelin 175/65 R15. Now, I want to go for 195/65 R15, and thinking about Yokohama V550 AVS DB. Anyone used these, and what's the feedback? cheers lazy |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() 175/65R15 Goodyear replaced with 195/60R15 Michelin Primacy 3ST along with Alloy Wheels from City. NVH improved drastically and performance marginally. Yet to check the impact on FE. Costed 20k including alignment and balancing. ![]() ![]() Last edited by Mr.Boss : 23rd August 2016 at 14:17. |

| ![]() Actually, this raised the GC be couple of mm which is helping. The tires are going strong. I have completed 10k on them now. No complaint as of now. |

| ![]() Got my new Jazz Diesel delivered last week with Goodyear Assurance Triplemax on it. Exchanged with Primacy 3ST 195/60 R15 at Darshan Tyres, Baner, Pune for 13k. I do not see much improvement in cornering / roadholding, honestly did not find the upgrade worth :( The dealer was quite pushy on Primacy 3ST, repeating often that it was the best tyre. The funny part was he offered XM2 for the same price as 3ST, not a rupee less! Although I did not want to go for softer tyres, since he gave the best quote on 3ST + exchange, I went for it. Darshan, Baner - 5750 for 3ST, less 2.5k per tyre Overall good attitude. However, despite telling the workers to ensure the correct air pressure (32 front / 30 back), they did not. I found out after I drove back home and found the ride too hard. Checked using gauge at home - one of the tyres had 45! Others too were not correct. So went back and similar story again - 35 in two of the tyres. Sai, Baner - Offered 5650 for 3ST, 5500 for XM2, less 2k per tyre Good attitude but owner was difficult to trace over multiple visits. Shree Tyres, Baner - Offered 5500 for 3ST, but zero for exchange ![]() Did not like the attitude. |

An update. I went with Continentals MC5 195/60 R15. Super impressed with them - extremely silent (was using Michelins XM1 earlier) and grippy. Just did a 800km Bangalore-Coonoor-Bangalore trip, through nice highways, village roads, broken roads, rains etc. These tyres are awesome. cheers lazy. | |

Just got the CVT-V delivered last week. The stock ZVTV Mrf are puny. I am looking at options for tyres which can give better ride comfort and gripping. going through the posts across Tbhp, I have decided for the upgrade to be 195/60 R15. Can you suggest the best options as I am not well educated with Tyres on the market. ? How has been your experience with the upgraded tyres ? How much did you get for your old tyres ? Thanks | |

| ![]() Hello. Would anybody be interested in purchasing 4 brand new Jazz OE alloy wheels and 185 tyres? A guy I know will be taking delivery of his Jazz V this Wednesday and has planned a tyre and rim upgrade on the same day to Yokohama S drive 195/60/15 with HRS rims. The guy is in Bangalore. If you are interested, please PM me and I'll put you in touch with the guy. Disclaimer: I have no financial interest in this whatsoever. I can only put you in touch with the seller. It's up to you to negotiate a price. Thanks. |

![]() - 195/60R15 maintains (close enough) the overall diameter of your stock tires. - 195/65R15 is bigger in diameter / circumference, this will help in increasing the ground clearance, but negative impact includes decreased acceleration, poor braking, high input loads, etc. | |

How will this affect braking ? Isn't better road grip and braking connected ? | ||
