Rim 18

[Praba8848]

To all A33 owners,
I m planning to change my rim to 18inch(half cut). I would like to know if I need to upgrade my suspension ir the soring coil. Need your inpur so I dun hv to worry more later.
Thanks.

Praba.

There is nothing to worry about changing to 18" except that in a long run, your wheel bearing might give way as its too heavy. changing the coil over springs to sports would make it lowered but mind you riding on 18" with sports suspension would break your back. if you are planning to sell ur standard 16" rims & tyre, please do PM me. I'm interested to "downgrade" mine from 18". hehehe coz i've been riding on 18" with GAB sports suspension for the past 6 years & getting pretty tired with it.

Want to ask bro. Your GAB suspension is adjustable or spring?

the biggest issue is the cost of tyres...

In the long run, they cost more than rims...
unless you are thinking of using used-tyres. That I don't recommend.
