195/60/R15 would do the job,if you are considering an upgrade...

Remember if you choose a 14 inch Rim then you need not go below a 70 profile tyre...You will have ground clearance issues...

Hi

I agree with Aby

195/60R15 or 185/70R14 should be ur choices for tyre upgrade for a swift

@ Dr.Abyshines

@ Bhardwaj

Thanks a lot Friends!

Will 195/60/15 break the warranty that MUL offers? can we see a noticeable difference on 195/60/15 interms of performance!??

I take your advice and go for 185/70/14... Would you suggest me a good tyre with the combo performance>comfort>Life..?

I may go for alloys later (14")  so getting a tubeless tyre for the stock rims  and then going for alloys some time later would cause a mess up interms of having the tubeless setup for the alloys? Does it cost more? Im jsut totally unaware of the process! Or do you people advice to go for alloys immediately....

@ ami....

The budget is for the whole ICE setup!! Hope it brings a good sound after all the phases!!!

It doesnt have a different set up but yes there are little differences on the contact surface where the tyre sticks to the Rim/Alloy wheel,

Its better to have them together because the tyre will accustom to it rather than getting use to it later...

No proven facts to support it but itherwise you can have the alloys later also,no harm in that...

Probably i would have waited for sometime[unless with pocket full of money] and would have changed them both at the same time...

In any case it might not cost you more,only exception being finding a discount for so much of investment if you manage to find both the alloys as well as the tyres from the same showroom,and you get buyback for the old tyres and rims as well...

it might fetch you approx 600-700 per tyre +rim...

Or if you manage to find someone who needs them later on is good enough,Definatley these guys would sell them for more money[the guys who will be selling you the alloys]

I understand its more good to have alloys and tyre change in one go... But all these are because of sheer budget constraint...lol... I wonder if it would cost more to make the tyre tubeless for the alloy that i will be adding in near future?

How about Neo alloys... I ve checked with a nearby dealer. He had Neo alloys ( venom ) black machined with life time warranty costing 16k for the set of 4.

I also have a dealer who is ready to offer 1300 for the stock jk tyres / each but sadly rims rs50 /each...Tongue out. he quoted Rs3295 / per Bridgestone G3....

Wat about the warranty status after getting 15 inchers???

See if your overall diameter are in good standard within 3% of the original tyre size,i think its not gonna be void...

Just have more expert opinion from the MODS

I dont think even if we have a genuine warranty issues,claim department hardly listens to a customer and has all sorts of explanations so as to what might be the so and so reason...

i mean a car comes only after very well planned efforts,Why not live it full size...

If you feel like having an alloy just go get them...will give a new feel to the car...

And by the way those were very nice quotation for your tyres...i would call it a move...Cool

They are good but still feel lensos are better...Enkei leads[but unfortunately no suppliers]

Definately price tag is also an issue...

I havent seen the ones you mentioned so i really dont have any idea about that model Venom!

Do check out some alloys in indian roads here[image source:GOOGLE]

There are few more additions...

Besides it might give you a clearer picture so as to which ones are good to look at but how they change the look of the car...

And reply back if you liked any!Cool
