I have written to you on the Getz India groups.However,do go in for tyres wider than 165,coz The European version comes with 175/70 R 14 or 185/65 R 14 as standard fitment.

Yes I have GLX- (top end) so Alloys are factory fitted - IMHO they are no so good. in design and finish. u can get netter after market.


Cost me 2500 +340 for wheel balancing.
