Contrats mate, i was told to collect mine on 8th DEC.

I could, but every time after such stunt i will need clean underwear and clean matts.

Don't know why they even want to do these stunts, are we going to go on vertical drives or is this vehicle even rated for such steep slops?

Then make sure they don't register so fast hor. Best is register the day before, or on the day you collect.

 

Else you lugi on the road tax and insurance for a few days. Cost may be negligible, but just buay song that you paid but din get to enjoy the car for that period

Anyone can intro decent tyre shops whom they have gotten their Michelin Primacy 3 from. What are the prices? I was quoted from $300 to $350 per piece for 235/50R18.

 

Much appreciated if you can share good deals. Kam siah very very much!  


Congrats! Actually what is black edition?

Black Edition is add STI Knob, STI Front/Rear Lips, Nicer and better leather, Grille, STI floor mat, STI Front strut bar. I may have missed out something

Yes. Bro carhorn is right, Black Edition is mostly cosmetic upgrades. The seats are half-leather, half alcantara. More of a need than one. 

 

But since getting new, might as well get something that you like, dun wait till buy den regret never do the add-on.  [:p]

Go for 235/50/18. There are a lot of choice.

It will fit the stock rim.

 

Sorry for thread digging this

 

stock tyre size is 225/55/18

 

What will be the effect (other than more tyre choices) of fitting a 235/50/18 to the stock rim?

Driving up to Cameron highlands. Do you think need to use X mode? Reading from the manual, X mode is only for <20km/h.

Unless you go off road, why need to use X mode?

Unless your not taking the winding road, bashing through the grasses instead.

Perhaps this thread title needs a change. 2015 Forester when in the US they call it the 2017 Forester.

 

And probably a FAQ to cover about engine oil, rim, wheel size, tyre pressure, etc?

We don't follow the US year model.

Owner here also included pre face lift model.

Not necessary if you are driving on the normal roads. Will be useful if you are going to Gunung Brinchang and the Mossy Forest. X-Mode on some parts as the 'road' can be quite steep and sandy with loose gravels.

 

Having said that, X-mode is not all that important there as I have seen old Protons on those roads. I guess it is a good place to test X-mode.

 

(Note: The roads to the above places and to the BOH Tea plantation is mildly challenging as the roads are narrow and winding).
