14" to 15" Rims + Michelin Pilot Preceda for $850
-
Just upgraded my pre Face lift Sunny 185/65/R14 to a 15" Michelin Pilot Preceda 195/55/R15 for $850. My old tyres were well worned out having done 57K (!!) on them.
Handling is definitely much improved. But is the pricing decent for such an upgrade? The new rims are very nice looking, and suits the Sunny very well. -
Here's how they look like. Just checking, is $850 for 4 sets of these (with Michelin Pilot Preceda 195/55/R15) a reasonable price?
The rims state "Leonis Real Modification Team Rim".

A low 195 profile tyres costs between 120-150 (depending on brand) and so it works out close to 500 already. Your rim then roughly works to close to 90 each. A 15" simple rim also cost around 70-80 and so in my opionion it's already a good price...Originally posted by VBlaster:Here's how they look like.

Thanks. Good to know the price is reasonable. Afterall, we don't upgrade rims and tyres every other day.

Hankook tyres r really very very good but ppl in sg dont know any thing abt this brand,
in the usa n europe this brand is on par or even more expensive than brand like yokohama/falken etc
sg ppl majority dont know abt tyres n know abt brand n origin only
very sad -
I am using hankook tyres though.. hmmm.. and they are stock tires
