Yeah, Mate works at Toyota, They put them on as a joke one day. ( I was tossing between a levin and stivo when i made the purchase.) Insurance was the only thing that made my mind.

hrrm, when i was buying the car i got multipul quotes that were always around $600 difference. Remember under 21 no previous insurance.

Are you planning to lower the car with low springs or anything?

Also, with those tyre specs, do you experience any scrubbing against the guards or anything? Is ride still firm since you choose 45 over the 40 series?

How could a sportivo be a cheaper choice when it comes to insurance? I was quoted $2000 plus for std sportivo, when I paid $1500 full mod for my levin this year.

well im 23 rating 1

Levin = $1200 a year

Sportivo = $1000 a year

its all to do with how many of them are on the road..

more levins are involved in accidents than sportivos.. hence a higher risk, higher premium

this is with aami btw

Is that what AAMI told you? In that case, I'd hate to see their insurance quote for an Ascent! :P

Hey yeah the car is lowered with King Springs and i don't experience any rubbing at all. I Had 40 series and it was too bumpy since i got these dunlop SP 9000's in the 45 series, it is much smooother and grips of the mark.
