I plan to change the tyres of my petrol Vento Highline to improve the ride on bumpy roads. It currently runs on factory-fitted 185/60 R15s. Is an upsize possible without changing the wheels? Which tyres would you recommend? I use the car mostly on highways.

AAA You could upsize your tyres to the 195/60 R15s on the existing wheels. The increase in width will improve the road holding and the increased volume of air will improve the ride comfort as well. The 195/60 R15s are available from most Indian and imported tyre brands.

The Mahindra XUV 300 facelift will be called the XUV 3XO. Should more brands rename models for facelifts?

Yes, it could give new life to a slow-selling car Yes, but only if there are significant changes No, it's confusing and dilutes the brand name No difference, the product speaks for itself
