I was getting 15.3 to 15.5 on in dash meter in city with light foot, but actual was less i.e. 14.5 to 14.8 (checked with refill auto trip).
After changing tires to 185, in dash is showing 16.2 to 16.5 with same driving style. Lets hope due to reducing error %age I would get somewhere between 15.5 to 16km/L.

I dont know there is any solution of noise except changing the tires. let it be if you are satisfied with the road grip and comfort level. change otherwise.

wasimcsi (Wasim Abbas) 2018-05-19 16:26:37 +0500 #51

website is not updated bro. web shows Immobilizer as optional whereas its standard now. came with my city 1.3.
5.5 as per manual.

dts nyc but too low as compared to my stock 175s euros, 22k driven, getting 17.7-18.2 in city drive n 19.5-22.4 on long routes depending road conditions !

kamyykk (kamyykk) 2018-05-19 16:37:47 +0500 #53

so 5.5j pattern can support 195s while 5j only upto 185s !

wasimcsi (Wasim Abbas) 2018-05-19 16:54:07 +0500 #54

MASHALLAH. thats great.
but difference is due to extra grip and comfort im getting with 185 yokohamas. even though 15.5 to 16 in city is much impressive.

wasimcsi (Wasim Abbas) 2018-05-19 16:54:31 +0500 #55

exactly.

kamyykk (kamyykk) 2018-05-19 17:01:38 +0500 #56

so u recommend 195s or 185s as i also hv a plan to upsize !

wasimcsi (Wasim Abbas) 2018-05-19 18:05:12 +0500 #58

I would recommend 185 for sure for better grip and comfort than stock, meanwhile no major effect on fuel efficiency.

kamyykk (kamyykk) 2018-05-19 18:53:36 +0500 #59

what ab ground clearence issue in 185s? than 195s !
KK

wasimcsi (Wasim Abbas) 2018-05-19 19:22:02 +0500 #60

Not as much as in 195. If your primary focus is ground clearance then ofcourse 195 will do the job for u.
In terms of ground clearance 185 is in between stock and 195.

Ok so apparently there is an availability issue of Advan DB 185 tires. I decided to go for them after reading the feedback on this thread since the fuel efficiency increases with negligible difference in road grip. Plus i'm hoping the noise will reduce as well since a Honda wala told me that extra width of tires exerts pressure on the suspension of CITY since it was designed for 175 tires, which may result in extra noise.

So i went to my tire wala to put this issue to rest for good but apparently the 185 variant is short all across Lahore
