Thanks for sharing! Btw how's the performance of the tyres? Noisy/bumpy/grippy? My experience is only with the stock tyres.... So in comparison, it much quieter than my previous tyres, not bumpy though, much grippy than the previous one ...overall, generally .. find it quite good. Guess it much dependent on my previous experience ... |

Thanks for the recording, can't listen in office so will go back home tonight and hear. Actually personally I prefer the 'understated' kind of look, matt or bronze goes well with Black Picanto! (Btw mine is the non-FL version, black auto ) |
