    I'm also from Alabang. And your route from home to UPD via C5 will allow you to run 40 series 18" tires. Did this with 235/40r18 without problem before. (Also did that route with 245/35r20 with no problem.) I just don't know what the terrain is from Alabang to Laguna.

    That's about the going rate for Rota rims. If I recall correctly, the 215/45r17 Accelera I got for a friend from Evangelista cost P3,500 per pc. Dunno the price of the 18s tho.

    Also, try selling your rims on your own. If you trade them in, they won't fetch much. Baka baratin ka pa sa Evangelista kung di ka kilala. Perhaps if you consign them with a suki along Evangelista, you can get them sold for a better price. And 4 lang yung isang set ng Rota. No need to sell the spare.

    Oh, and on the Federal, I think they're quite hard and noisy. But if you're using them for drifting, sulit daw. Tagal maupod. Hehe!

    I've no experience of Nankang.

    The Federal model I tried before, I didn't like. Noisier and tramlined more than my Gajah Tunggal Champiros, wore out faster, and didn't give appreciably more grip. BUT those tires have been phased out already. New ones might be better.

    Me and my friends have had good experiences with Gajah Tunggal Champiros. They're a bit noisy as they wear down because the rubber is hard, but they give decent grip and great tread life. But the ones available now in your size are HPZs. Haven't tried these yet.

    Haven't tried Nankang or Accelera, but I've heard they're not bad for the price.

    Personally, I prefer full-on sports tires in those sizes, but the likes of Eagle F1D3, Potenza Grid III and Neova AD07s are pretty expensive.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Thanks again for the suggestions! keep em' coming!

    for fellow tsikoteers, i suggest Rota Pque if buying new mags, if coming rom bicutan exit, take a u-turn the head for the east svc road., first street turn right and you'll go inside a village, head for the main factory branch of rota. you have more options and prices may still go down, sabi pa sa kin, if i'd wait baka daw makakuha pa ko ng mas magaganda. prices start at 20,800 up for 17s and 24-25k up for 18s, if ur going for rota and its quality. i'm off for shopping na for tires. sayang din ung modulo spec mags ng honda, 7500/pc nga lang
