Moving forward the owner of the shop and presenter come infront of a new white Scorpio-N which came for new 20” alloy wheels and low profile tyres.

Following their discussions, we can note that they test fit two different types of 20” alloy wheels. Soon after, the country’s first Toyota Fortuner with 26” alloy wheels comes into the shop. The shop owner then explains that fitting these humongous alloy wheels and tyres was not an easy task.

According to the owner of Velocity Tyres, the owner of the Toyota Fortuner trusted him and his shop with doing any required modifications to fit the set in the best way possible.

He then went on to explain that the Fortuner had to be lifted by 4 inches in front and rear with a lift kit. He also added that they had to shave off the fenders as well to make the wheels and tyres fit properly so that they don’t rub and damage the car or the set up. He told that this was not an easy task and not everyone can do it because its an extremely meticulous task and takes a lot of time and effort to make it work. The presenter then shows the vehicle form all the angles and we can see that the Fortuner looks extremely beautiful.
