Alloy Wheels Discussions and Show Off

The 2nd one would suite the city the best .it adds lot of character to the wheels. And the red strip brings elegance with ease.

The alloy (Alloy 2) you suggested does have more number of spokes compared to the others. I am not able to decide whether the 'more' spoke alloy looks good or the less spoke alloy looks good on a black Honda City. Please guide me guys as I am getting completely confused on the same.

More spokes = difficult to maintain (clean)

Ameyam,
Once you know the pain of maintaining a black car, you will never complain 'difficult to maintain' . When I am able to maintain a complete black car, alloys would be a brisk for me
I just want to know only one thing "Which one would look better?"

Note : No offense meant to anyone.

P.S Those front wheels if painted black would sync with the color themes

Nice snickering job though

I'm sorry there was a typo error

I was mentioning about the front black grille be painted black instead of chrome, they will add much to the styling

The original honey comb grill is black if I black this chrome grill it will not justify my buy Instead I planned to smoke the headlamps.

Design of alloys looks fab. Mine are too of the same design but Silver in color. But if I may ask, who chose the color for alloys? Second, 195 is an appropriate upsize for the Tyre(s) of CITY. I too had been recommended the same. I would request you to update on the ride and grip of the new Tyre(s) as it would help me and many more seekers.

Regards

Akash

I almost thought of adding this line to my previous comment "The photos were taken using my mobile phone, the almost pink shade that you see is actually RED in real". So if you see in real, the alloys looks like the inner portions (the design spokes) are black and has got a red layout. When sunlight falls on them, it appears like the Red color has spread to the black colored section.

Regarding the initial impressions, its amazing. I was always complaining to myself and others about the bumpy ride and not so good ride quality on broken roads. The same has been eliminated to a great extent. The grip is also better, I could corner now with improved confidence at higher speeds. And about FE, who cares as long as the upgrade keeps you smiling as long as you drive.

Note : I have not checked the FE after the update, will wait for some days and update after that.
