First-ever Kia Sonet With Aftemarket Alloy Wheels - THIS IS IT!

The Korean automaker Kia has recently launched its all-new sub-4-meter SUV named as Sonet in the Indian market. It rubs shoulders with the likes of Maruti Vitara Brezza, Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon and Ford EcoSport. It is the most affordable SUV in the carmaker’s stable and one of the most feature-loaded cars in its segment. The new Sonet owners around the country have also started customizing the SUV as per their preference. Here’s one such modified Kia Sonet, which gets swanky looking aftermarket alloy wheels. 

The entry-level models of the SUV come with 15-inch steel rims, while the top-spec trims of the SUV employ 16-inch alloy wheels. The Kia Sonet you see here gets 16-inch multi-spoke dual-tone alloy wheels. The red coloured front brake callipers are enhancing the overall look of the wheels.
