14" to 15" Rims + Michelin Pilot Preceda for $850

VBlaster SG

Just upgraded my pre Face lift Sunny 185/65/R14 to a 15" Michelin Pilot Preceda 195/55/R15 for $850. My old tyres were well worned out having done 57K (!!) on them.

Handling is definitely much improved. But is the pricing decent for such an upgrade? The new rims are very nice looking, and suits the Sunny very well.

Here's how they look like. Just checking, is $850 for 4 sets of these (with Michelin Pilot Preceda 195/55/R15) a reasonable price?

The rims state "Leonis Real Modification Team Rim".

A low 195 profile tyres costs between 120-150 (depending on brand) and so it works out close to 500 already. Your rim then roughly works to close to 90 each. A 15" simple rim also cost around 70-80 and so in my opionion it's already a good price...

Thanks. Good to know the price is reasonable. Afterall, we don’t upgrade rims and tyres every other day.

after all the best buy is still the Hankook Ventus tyre + asa rim,17 inches at $999/-good tyres n rim at the best value in the market now.

Hankook tyres r really very very good but ppl in sg dont know any thing abt this brand,

in the usa n europe this brand is on par or even more expensive than brand like yokohama/falken etc

sg ppl majority dont know abt tyres n know abt brand n origin only

very sad

Oh it comes along with the car...

or i see u should have mention OE

those that come along with the cars r normally not high performance but rather best of both world on comfort n performance,so see what u want
