Hmmmm am looking at 185/65/R14 now , the stock tyre size of Verna SX CRDI(top-end model). If dad says ok to Michelin i will go ahead but if he sees VFM then Yoko A-Drive.
Now what to do with my old spare tyre? Its 175/70/R14 B250 not even run 20kms so far , its still brand new but two years old! How much will they give for that tyre?

185/65 is more suitable for 175/70 replacement, but you would loose some 2 mm GC. With 185/70, GC will increase by some 6-7 mm, but there will be big speedo error.
My view, considering VFM factor, stick to 175/70, take michelin 4 tyres. Keep spare in spare to use in emergencies only.
Otherwise, if money is not a factor, take all 5 Yoko A-Drive of 185/65 size.

Yes i chose 185/65 because the speedo error is also minimum. And also why i chose 185/65 is slightly enhanced looks and grip levels at highways. Your advice also seems to be a nice choice , but i think again Yoko A-drives are available in 175/70 too , right?
If dad allows i will go for 185/65 Yoko's else i will stick to 175/70 as you said. I want to know what will happen to the spare tyre if i switch to 185/65. How much can i expect for that spare tyre?

Not more than 1000, I guess.

Long time since i updated this thread , too much attention towards Aria i guess!
Few updates and poor experiences at A.S.S.
1. Car was serviced at January last with 44k KMS on the ODO just a general oil change service , no complaints as such. I just wanted a complete Interior wash done so the normal expected bill is in the range of Rs.6500 at the max. But i was shocked to get a bill of 9k!! They had added unnecessary things like wheel balancing , wheel alignment , headlamp adjustment , AC cleaning etc etc blah blah and looted money from me! Both while drop and also pick up i was busy with Aria delivery and registration process , so i din fight or complain against them. But lesson learnt from next time i will be very careful while dropping the car for service!
2.The car has now clocked almost 49k KMS and still running very good. I feel happy that i have not spent even a penny for extra unwanted repairs so far apart from regular maintenance.
3. Planning to change the tyres this week , decided to get 185/65 Yoko A-Drive.

@ Ilango Yup 9k is too much for a Verna CRDI , must not go above 6k! Anyways as i said before , lesson learnt! Now hereafter when i drop for service i will insist strictly that i will not pay for unnecessary things done without my approval!
@ Nofate Check out the pictures before , my car already has alloys buddy.

@Dhaya, what are the current rates for tyres?
There has been a recent price hike a month back if I am not wrong. Do check out and let us know!
and reg the spare tyre, I guess you can keep it until unless it is worn out as much as the ones that are running now. You have the habit of rotating 5 tyres right? If that's the case, I would suggest a 5 tyre replacement.
reg the 175/185 section, I guess the price difference would be less than 500 per tyre. This should not bother you! And in terms of mileage, there will be negligible difference.

air filter a max of 400 to 600/-
diesel filter , depend on design factor.Indica/go cost 140 for one. keep it the worst 1000/-![[evil]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Evil.gif "Evil [evil]")
for your car.
Ac cleaning !!!!!!! removal of gas which was working fine , cleaning them and fixing , its charged 2.5k here. which is needed for some 6+ year car since dust gets accumulated in cooling coil.
Labour charge extra , oil oil filter change , coolant change . greasing etc.
