2012 Ford Ranger

[thunder_god]

Pansin ko nga di naman dumadami yung rusts.
Sidewinders din favorite ko. haha 90k yata with nitto tires. Meron din 65k with saffiro tires naman. 20s
Pero mas gusto ko yung 18's ng ford everest/ranger dati.

According to the ownwer, the BR Sidewinders from the pic that I posted are not even 20s, they're just 17x9s, all stock, no spacers and lift kits. They're not even on Nitto tires, it's a Yokohama Geolandar G94 285/65R17. Pero kung titingnan mo, mas lalo naging offroad looking yung T6 because of the bigger tires alone but still on 17-inch mags. Then if you look at it, nakalabas na din ng konti sa wheel wells nung T6 yung wheels. Kaya I'm thinking na just putting on bigger tires still with our stock mags is a good option instead of replacing everything that would cost us between 80k-100k.
Actually Sir, ok din yung stock mags ng Everest/previous Ranger model that are just 18s. It kinda looks good also with the new Ranger. May nakita na ako on the road tsaka online sa thailand Ranger forum, mas naging pogi ride nila with those 6-spoke 18-inchers.

My Ford Ranger XLT AT's Spare Tire was stolen at around 2:30am to 5:15am along Valero St. in Makati while I was in Starbucks studying. Is there anyone willing to sell me one tire?

Oh S**t! Badtrip yan Sir.... Yan ba yung starbucks across Pontecillo/711? How far were you parked away from your T6? Wala ba kayong napansin na suspicous looking cars/vans parked behind or beside your truck? Alam ko may nagpost na din dito sa thread previously ng nanakawan ng spare tire somewhere in Makati din, tapos sa loob pa ng mall. Anyway, ang galing naman nung dumiskarte dun sa spare tire nyo para hinde mapansin nung mga tao sa area. Diyan kme nagtatrabaho ng wife ko sa area na yan, and normally yung mga condo unit along Valero St. where normally cars are parked along the side of the road, may mga guards na nagbabantay sa labas, tsaka maraming tao na palagi nag-yoyosi or nag-uusap sa kalsada kse marami call centers diyan. Kahit na 2am-3am in the morning, it's still a busy street. Baka naman Sir, pwede nyo itanong dun sa nearest building/condo kung saan kayo nagpark kung may CCTV sila para atleast may lead kyo kung sino or what time nakuha spare tire nyo. Pero most likely nga Sir, nasa evangelista or banawe na yung spare tire nyo.

Anong starbucks to, yung katapat ng valero carpark 2? If so, sayo ba yung black na Ranger na laging nakapark sa side?

Nope mine is blue and I only began parking there a week ago in the wee hours of the morning. Good thing CGIC covers stolen spare tires! =)

Sir malakas na po ang 2.2 nakargahan ko na ng 20 bags of cement di man lang umiyak ang makina mas malakas pa ang grip nya kasi mabigat naka 4x2mode lang ako.

Agreed!
Kumuha ako ng stocks ko kanina sa quezon ave. e naging lowered ung xlt ko sa sobrang bigat hahaha ayus parin ang hatak! Mas maganda nga talaga at mas malakas ang grip nya. Astig ang T6 natin guys! ;)

Hi Gsp, ford just checked all the fluid levels, aircon, oil etc. In fact, it just took 20 mins. The service supervisor told me that in the next PMS (10K) , they will already replace the oil (fully synthetic). So far naman, ok pa lahat.

May nag sabi sakin hndi daw advisable ang fully synthetic sa mga diesel engines? How so? But then fully synthetic need saating ranger?

Hi there! Sorry for your loss. I was the earlier one whose spare tire was also stolen in Makati. I was only able to get the replacement unit earlier and I'm having a spare tire lock installed asap. I was able to get from Ride in Banawe for P2000 plus free installation. Hassle talaga yang mga nagnanakaw and ang tagal din ng insurance company pero at least napalitan.

Big tires smaller rims din gusto ko. Mas malakas dating for me if done properly and sa Australia yan ang mas ginagawa ng owners, not bigger rims Pero baka kelangan ilift to attain the look i want just like the first pic. And been searching the net for cool Rangers. Look at the last two with fender flares. Now that's macho!

Awesome! IMO this look suits the ranger best.

yung kadena sa picture is yung humahawak lang sa spare tyre, hindi sya lock or purposed for anti-theft.

I think there's nothing wrong kung i-retain mo yung OEM look nung XLT nyo Sir, instead of looking like some Wildtrak rip-off or Raptor wannabe. Hinde naman overkill yung mga chrome accents na nilagay ng Ford sa XLT variant IMHO, same with WildTrak's black/matte black accents. It just fits the truck right, placed in the right portions of the truck. Though kailangan mo nga Sir remedyuhan yung rust build-up sa rear bumper mo dahil dun sa sensors, well which could have been prevented if those sensors were not drilled through the bumper.

Anyway, I just find the Aurora Blue color as XLT's flagship with the new T6. I'm saying that kse if I'm not mistaken, competition don't offer that color sa pick-ups nila. Kung baga, special or limited edition yung color ng T6 nyo and you should be proud of it. Maybe bigger tires with stock mags or new set of bigger wheels would do. You wouldn't want to regret your mods sa T6 mo in the long run like what happened to your rear bumper.

Well that's just me Sir, to each his/her own preferences pa din tayo at the end of the day with our trucks.

Eto Sir, stumbled upon this pic from FCP. I think wheels lang ang binago, everything else is OEM stock ...

http://pbs.twimg.com/media/A91PIOECQAAMTR4.jpg

This is my friend's T6. Indeed it's 17x9 BR Sidewinder with Yokohama Geolander 285/65r17. We both thought the OEM 17s were small on the big T6. i wanted 20s with AT tires. He wanted 17s with bigger tires for that semi-offroad look since he's from Bulacan and he was not comfortable taking the 20s out everyday.

265/70r17 with more aggressive wheels were the 1st choice. But with 17x9s, the 265s were stretched too much. We went for 285/65r17, approximating the 70 series tires but with some more sidewall.

Bingo!

Haha me I personally prefer truck number 1 But flares are just awesome. Found a couple more Rangers worth posting here too! Ang gaganda ng mga ginagawa ng foreign friends natin sa trucks nila

And about truck number 1. No lift, 17x9 rims, 285 70 r17 Nitto Trail Grapplers. 20k each yun gulong sa sulit.com.ph since yun lang source ko ng tire prices locally haha.Expensive set-up but amazing look!

Post nyo pa Sir ibang pics...

[JX290]

Have booked for 10k km PMS * Ford CdO, monday, tanong ko lang dahil ito yung free labor pa rin, pero lagpas na ako, dapat sana nung may pa
pero ini extend ko kasi I am out of the country, is the warranty now void? 6K+ pa odo ng unit ko.

[defend2013]

May nag sabi sakin hndi daw advisable ang fully synthetic sa mga diesel engines? How so? But then fully synthetic need saating ranger?

Nicenz, yes un ang sabi ng ford supervisor na fully synthetic daw un ilagay sa 10K pms kasi every 10,000 kms un pms schedule ng ranger. We have to follow their maintenance schedule and process. Warranty kasi habol natin.
