UPDATE: wheels and strut revalved



Wheel upgrade XXR 501 16x8 ET+15

my previous wheels was 16x7 ET+35 and on some turn it will rub inside the wheel well and front strut.... it also rub some parts of my inside guard...

however i personally like the size (16) not too small or too big... so decided to get wider stance to push the wheel out... the 8inch width is so i can fit 225 in the future after rolling the guard...

here are the pics when i pick it up from OTR, thanks to johnny... had to hand carry 2 of them from melb to jakarta... literally (missed my flight from KL to singapore and had to take bus instead hahaha no more... no more)... the other 2 way carried by my brother when he visit me in melbourne...
     


here are the pics of the stretched 205/50/16...
 

here are the back with 205/55/16... it rubs, but i changed to 195/50/16 the next day (forgot to take pic)... once the front tyre is gone (soon), i will use 195/50/16 all around...


pic of it with the revalved strut...




Strut Revalving by MUZE
i went to MUZE to harden the four stock strut to match my lowered spring and shorten the strut at the same time. (re-gassed)
 


here are the final shot with 195/50/16 at the rear at sentul... didn't ended up tracking my car as the gearbox gate/pin for 1-2-R shot out and fluid leaks thru.... also my diff main seal leaks... the driveshaft also vibrate at 120kmh which i found out on the way to sentul... will have to fix it up ASAP...


next is wheel alignment Razz i got massive toe out at the front after lowering...
