used satria 1.3 before. if u want to look nice and cool go for 16 inch but u must remember it will be tremendously under powered. fuel consumption will suffer much. then u have to knock the underside of ur mudguard if not it will touch the body.....assuming u r lowering the car.

the best to me is the 15 inch....that's the usual size for satria 1.3.

the best would be to stick to the original maufacturer recommended size.....it would be mentioned in the driver's manual handbook . i believe the satrias 1.3 comes equipped with 13" rims . iam not sure if they have started to use 14" now for the Satria SE...for looks wise then bigger ones may look nice

I have used 17" inch on my stock satria before. Looks nice but then you got to knock your iner wheel arch then you will have problems when you lower the car.
After 17" inch i change to 15" inch and that suited me the best.

So i would suggest going for 15" inch on your stock satria.......

yo bro
if ur hav lot of money go for 16inch wheels ah .. makes ur car more garang and cun ... but remember if 16inch u lose power n somemore ur tyre quite expensive then 15inch and below ..if you still wan 16inch then go for japan rims ah .. they are more durable and lighter ...

like me i used 15inch rims .. japan rims
quite ringan ... and i used the 55spec tyre ..
now my back tyre kene my fender ... later hav to go tyre shop put something at the suspension to make it higher a bit so that wont hit the fender
just my 2cents

14"and 15" is the best choice. for me i go for 14". fuel consumption will be better if not size of the rim too big make the car under power really will suffer.
