I have booked Figo....I have one concern about it that the the ground clearance is low and there are as many as 100 speed humps that I have to cross everyday. Is it advisable to change the R14 wheels to R15 as we see in Swift?

The Figo has a ground clearance of 168mm which, combined with it's stiff suspension settings is more than adequate for Indian roads. The trick is to drive the car slowly over broken roads and speed breakers. The Figo has a slightly stiff but comfortable ride and switching over to 15 inch wheels will stiffen it further and would not be good for the suspension in the long run. 15 inch wheels will create only a marginal increase in ground clearance because you will have to go for lower profile tyres with them, maybe 175/60 R15. The size of the Figo's standard tyres is 175/65 R14. In my opinion, avoid this unnecessary modification and try to drive gently, which should take care of you car's underbody scraping the speed breakers and other road irregularities.
