@gego
You are right, I would have opted to change the tyres immediately after purchase, but to be frank I did not know much on the tyres issue, but JKs will long last, but to me they are useless either on the grip part or noise part

Jk's a well as GoodYear both of these tyres share equal part with their grips and noises.
Do upgrade it to big section whenever you plan to change your shoes, it makes a lot of difference in the handling and grip you would feel from the stock sizes.

Re: Maruti Suzuki Ritz LDI -Glistening Gray-Ownership Review
Hmm, yes Vijay, there is no point in changing them now as they have already 20000km old and do not fetch any money. I think I need to wait till they worn out now![[frustration]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Frustration.gif "Frustration [frustration]")
as these 165 are not good and next time I will go for 185 section

RK Anna,
We had ran more than 60K Km in our previous Swift with stock JK Tornado Tires 165/80R14.It has lasted long.After using those Tires for more than 60K Km tire,L.H.S Front Tire got torn before changing tires 1 day before.Then,after seeing this,we decided to change our Tires to Michelin XM2 185/70R14.It has excellent grip and done 10500 Km before selling it.I loved Michelin Tires much.But,sadly,we sold our Swift 2 weeks ago and bought Vento HL TDI 2012 Pre-Worshipped on same day.It had Apollo Aceleres Stock version.It has nice grip,but,will be changing those after 20K Km.
BTW,RK Anna,I had sent your Friendship request in Facebook.BTW,Abhinav Rocky with Vento Photograph is me.Please add me.

Since last two days, I am feeling that the clutch is too stiff as I am getting some pain on left leg while driving in traffic !! Do I need to check this at service center ??

Re: Maruti Suzuki Ritz LDI -Glistening Gray-Ownership Review
I agree with you Dharmesh, yes when we are tired, we feel that. But I am able to see my leg effort on using clutch where I can notice that reverse action of the clutch on my leg as it is not smooth and bit harsh.
Anyway my next service(20k) is very near, so I will check this till that service and if I feel the same then I will tell them to check it out![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")

Re: Maruti Suzuki Ritz LDI -Glistening Gray-Ownership Review
Are you finding the clutch heavy during morning hours when starting the car after the night's rest or all time during the day?

Re: Maruti Suzuki Ritz LDI -Glistening Gray-Ownership Review
@Appu, Thank you, the pics were taken after a 200km trip to villages with lot of dust.
I am not doing anything specific to maintain it, but just alternate day cleaning by office lady and it is always parked under the roof not exposed to dust and sun.
Yes, I am used to OVRMs very much and cannot drive without them now![[lol]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Laugh.gif "Laugh [lol]")
Yes, I also look for such opportunity very soon. Coming down to Chennai is may not be on the cards, but whenever I visit to Bangalore with my car I will give you prior information so that we could meet in Bangalore as your BIL and my BIL stay very close in Bangalore
