Hey bros,
anyone tried their services before?
I wrote emails to them on my trading of Lancer rims and upgrade to a higher inches. They do offer me quite a good price and quite responsive to my emails but I need to have a 2nd opinon.
They are mainly in the exporting biz and I aint sure if they had a big presence in SG. and those are taiwanese manufactured rims.
(Hope I posted in the right category. its not an advertorial nor something very technical to post in technical cat hehe)
Do give some feedbacks! :P

i tot ppl say lancer the max only can take 17' or the best is to keep the original 15". because the bigger rim that you get the more damge of the fuel consumption. C & C agent advise me better dun change or only change to 16" rim because the power output will reduce even the outlook apperance is better. :P

Carson, thanks for your advice. Yes it does eats away the FC for higher inches but ... I cant help myself for being too poisioned! haha.
anyway, i am changing to a 16" so the FC effects shld not be so large.
Does any bros out there deals with Rm team vendors before?

Bro Spyderic,
that is why I never called them up as yet lol...
but they reply my emails really fast.
they offer FIRENZA tyres, issit a low end or mid-range brand?
They're offering the sports rim 15" that C&C gave (of coz mint condition) + tyres for $500 (trade-in price)
I done my checking for some other tyres shop and found they willing to give $300.
Taiwanese rims is generally cheaper than Jap brands or Euro brands I would say. But how much cheaper I really do not have a gauge but you can browse the website?
Hope this helps.

Apologies for hijacking this thread.
I've done some checking with a few tyre shops on 16 inches rims.
They highlighted that Lancer must use dual PCD 16 inches rims. Else, not able to fit. Our PCD is 4 X 114 according to them.
That means to say all japanese lightweight rim(SSR,Enkei) cannot fit into our lancer already. Only 17 inches then got 4X 114.
Was wondering if you guys have any other better options on light weight rims for lancer???

bro wrecker51, which shop did you enquire from?
I'm looking at SSR type C.
Most shop don't want to bring in leh, if bring in also charge "Mount everest" price...
Any other good brands that offers 16inches light weight rims and PCD 114 ???
Experts!! Need your advise pls?
