I enjoy the drive in last nite ND, thanks everyone! Unfortunately, I was too tired at 1:00am and cannot go to Sai Kung with you guys!

Nice to meet you guys too.

I'm sure this new tyre/wheel configuration will help him save some fuel.
We have asked Pingu to buy 3 extra of these so he can officially upgrade to 17"

I guess just because yours is already very nice.

By the way, I like your rims.

Ricky san, the tail light is very very bright in dark. When I stopped in front of the traffic light last nite, there was a Japanese car behind me and there was a woman sitting in the passenger seat. When the car approaching mine (I am still pressing the brake on), the woman put her left arm in front of her eyes and also pulldown the sun shield on the roof!!!
I saw this in the mirror, then I release the brake and she put back the sun shield...hahah

It's because press brake on and off equal to tail fog light on and off. I through that behind driver and passenger hate you a lot.

Ricky and AK suggest to relieve the tyre pressure as they are 38kpa before. Now the tyre pressure adjust to 35kpa. Moreover, the sway bar was adjusted to soft setting. My ride was improved, but still not as original.. .

I know i can't change back all but hope this can help.

again, thanks ricky and AK
the down side of lowering the tyres pressure is increase in fuel consumption but you can always gradually increase the pressure back to 38 so she wont notice. alternatively, just tell her its your car so mind her own biz.

the 3 bars will be out of question of you, you would feel more of the road after installing them.
