A180 HID & Changing of Rim/Tyre Size

Greetings everyone, wanna ask a noob question, previously driving a Japanese car, hence got no idea if changing of original head light to HID will that void the warranty; I would be getting my ride sometime frm Dec15/Jan16, kindly advise. Apart from that, would changing of rim/tyre size affects anything? I understand that originally was on 17inch tyre and rim.

Regards,

Keith

Void warranty is one thing. Lta compliant is another, even if you change to original bixenon, lta will officially still require you to submit documents from the manufacturer which Mercedes cnc will not do.

Changing of rims to 18" will add to the beauty of your car at the expense of 2k every 2years to change the tyres and extra fuel consumption cause the car is so underpowered to put 18"

I did ask my SE regarding rims and bodykit, and she said won't void warranty. But if touch engine and lights, then MIGHT void warranty.

 

I'm on 18" now with a Monster Tune ECU reflash, and I wouldn't say that there will be any cause for extra fuel consumption. Based on my 25km single trip, to and fro work, 60/40 highway,major road, my dash display is showing typically 7.5/100. But that's based on gentle foot la, go to work and return home also can't whack the car. But if I whack the car, that's a totally different story.
