@webblescott :- She looks hot dude, I love the floor mats, but isn't 4K a little expensive?
I have the following queries

1) how does the steering feel with the wider tyres, and how is the ride quality.
2) With steering turned extreme left or right does the tyre brush the body?

I believe you could have gone in for 205/60.

Could you post pictures showing the width of the tyre? Also has the height increased?

she looks hot mate no doubt

Looks lovely. I've had two white cars, but white and black are the worst for someone that doesn't clean very often <blush>

Those mats... are they shaped? they look like they have a 3-d fit. I'd love to have mats like that for my Swift --- and I'd pay 4000!

Well the Floor mats are imported ones from Hong Kong, there is a supplier in Mangalore, 4k is selling price, i got it for 3k as the supplier is friend of mine. Well its sounds expensive but it realy gives a great rich look for the i20 interior.

Riding quality is very good as i feel the vehicle sits to the road perfectly and it gives out very comfortable braking grip.

Regarding the tyres, as i am using just 15' it doesnt brush to any part, i remember 17 was brushing while fully loaded.

No No Nothing has done with the Height. I will be posting the picture of tyres width.

I wash my car every 3 days. I love to keep it clean. even if i see a finger print on my windows, i will wipe it off. I look for people who lean over my car lol ....

Regarding the mats Yes it has special moulded shape and it fits gud. Available for swift also in 2 other colors.

Too many complaints on the AC and all coming from the 1.2. Any feedback on the AC from the 1.4 or the CRDi?

AC on 1.4 AT is equally bad I'd say. best option is to make the fans point towards your body/face. but this won't work if you have 2-3 passengers in the back-seat as well.

Mine is the 1.4 CRDI, one word for the AC, PATHETIC.

Dunno about others, but the A/C in my 1.2 Asta seems to work fine!

Even when the sensor was showing 43 degree C outside, it had no probs cooling me inside!
(no sunfilms etc.)

maybe because I always travel alone and all the other vents are always closed and the FATC is always in recirculation mode(as soon as I turn press 'Auto', I press recirculation button)

What I'd like to change is the blower air direction!

Somehow the blower on left side of the steering wheel doesn't directly blow on your face! (I have to redirect the air via hand placed on the steering! lol)

Thats a good way for giving your car A/C a clean chit. ( i have recently tried this trick on my last solo drive)

It would be interesting to know how Hyundai is going to respond to this problem. Its better to act now rather than making a dent in sales.

Well, I have already started the negative publicity regarding the i20 AC to prospective buyers, they should be aware of it.

Hyundai better do something about the weak a/c. After tinting the side and rear windows, how does the a/c perform?

LOL! I agree, its quite bad for family ppl!

anyways, I was wondering whether its possible to get colored interiors like the one in the pic attached

since my i20 is 'Sparkle Blue', I'd love the blue upholstery and trim!
