I will say trade-in price not bad. Service also very good.

1. Life time warranty (although not so important cos rim seldom spolit)
   
2. Free rotation every 10K
   
3. Free service for flat or puncture tyre no matter which part of SG.
   
4. Price of rims negotiatable
   

Best of all the rims are all very swee. You can just look at mind Just feel free to drop-by and have a look.

ok thks again bro

yo yo anybody any idea offset 38 can fit Koup ???

saw a white koup wif what looks like OZ Superleggra today.

Happen to find this on the web so share it here....^^

If u want to save $$$ you can remove the silver piece(by remove of 3 screws)leave it black. Or spay the silver piece to the colour u like.



Sorry if this been posted be4....Cheers....^^

This idea is very cool ! I wonder how it looks like after all silver panels are taken out....actually should look not bad !

hehe no prob bro

this is the thread that says koup stock rim is 7kg: http://www.ceratoforte.forumotion.com/general-discussion-for-cars-only-f30/forte-with-koup-rims-t2786.htm

ya 7kg... dunno how true.....

hmm... haha u go take out the rims then try weight again loh.. borrow from c&c..

if i were to go cnc dis few days den think will be damn noisy there lor...

17" rim cheap ones approx $180 each..

17" tyres decent ones approx $200 at least...

This is one of the reason why am staying stock for this.

where u find d cheap lobang?

u asking me? v cheap meh?

yup bro...

ehhh cos today i at AMK autopoint..then walk around 1st level got quite a few rim/tyre shops..so went look see.

AMK autopoint 1st level.

Tyres..really depend on what u pick..17" tyre don't expect to be cheap though..$200+ each easily.

i say 7+ kg la.. go weigh it manzzzzz..

got exceed 7.5kg not?

in comparison..an expensive 17" rim like PRODRIVE weight about 5kg.

prodrive need to c which model.... not all 5kg le...

yes not all...

but a forged 17" can be as light as 5kg.

the extra 6kg savings may not be worth the price... might as well spend on something with higher returns...

Bro, I weight from the koup rim is 10.6kg leh

I change to a taiwan made rim(Advanti) 8.8kg, only topup 300+ hee:>
Maybe the wheel shop weighing got problem.

Forget to add

The original Koup rim is
7Jx17"
Offset 50
PCD 114.3

those who are waiting for their koup can search for new rim first

Wow.. the koup rims good leh. Kena curb rash can take out the individual piece & repray, no need take out whole rim.

so strange.. mine is 7+ kg leh.. maybe mine is lighter? hahaha..

so who is correct abt d weight????

The Koup rims design is part of the overall package of the outlook of the Koup. I'll be keeping mine.

17".....good enuf for me. As for the tyres, will see how they go, prefer the Yokos or Bridgies.

I aim for this rim very long ago and finally give up cos one rim cost around US500. Excluding shipping.

wah 4get it ....

LS has something that looks like Wed-Sport or BBS CK replicas. They are nice and cheap at 250 a piece for 18' . However, I am still undecided as this would mean unsprung weight will increase which will of course affect your FC.

Not so sure about the construction of the rim too. So if the stocks are really 7kg plus, it may be a good option to just stick to them and get some decent tires.

got some say stock at 7kg, some say at 10+kg... so dunno who is correct....

unless someone wanna t-loan spare tyre den go and weight loh ....

I have a portable weighing scale (up to 30kg, NOT bathroom scale....LOL )...... can arrange to meet to weigh the spare rim + tyre.

For clarification, I meant 7kg+ for the rim only. Tire weight differs but is quite negligible. Besides, the Koup is not a sports car so I doubt anyone will go all the way like PS2 etc. Thanks

so bro, u confirm d rim weight is 7kg ya?

scalar wrote:so bro, u confirm d rim weight is 7kg ya?

Sorry sorry for being unclear. What I meant is 'Is the Koup rim (alone) 7kg+?
