I am using a Kia Picanto 2016 model and i need to replace the tires. The agent informed me to use only a Korean tire brand. ( Kumho, Nexen, Hankook) During the last wheel alignment ( not at agent ) a mechanic also informed it is better to use Korean brand tire as other brands can result in suspension issues. Currently it is difficult to find Korean brands in the market due to import restrictions. What will be the suspension issues i may encounter if i use another tire brand ? Or is it just the agent promoting Korean brands? Any advise from Picanto or other Korean vehicle users will be highly appreciated. When i checked at a few places, brand such as Federal, CE#T and Maxiss are available. Are these ok to be used as a replacement for Korean brands ?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?
