Second Gen. Honda Jazz/Fit

mga bro na naka 1.3, kamusta ang handling ng 15" wheels ninyo? and acceleration? I have a 1.5AT and will be going for 15" in the near future. TIA.

[renzo_d10]

^^ You're downgrading ? Diba ang stock size ng 1.5V rims e, 16 ? Why downgrade ?

^
- to significantly reduce rotational mass
- to reduce unsprung weight (for every lb times 6 daw sa sprung weight reduction)
- to increase handling
- to increase mpg
- to lessen brake stress
- to increase acceleration

And have you actually WEIGHED the tire/wheel combinations? Kung parehas lang yung WEIGHT ng mga yan, walang bisa ang mga ss:
-Unsprung weight
-Increased mpg
-Lessened brake stress
-rotational mass
-increase acceleration

Handling is REDUCED kasi mas makapal yung tire sidewall - more sidewall flex.

Grab a set of 17" TE37s. Those will be much much much lighter than the stock 15s or 16s.

[LeapFrog]

chong dude pare, nice point on the sidewall flex.

[parakitoJDM]

eto na lang based on simple physics...

let's try to compare a 15" tire/wheel combo vs. a 17" one....
even if the over-all mass are the same (assuming that your 17 inchers are the lightweight one) the 17" will still consume more gas, why u ask?

kasi the heavy part of the wheel is much farther away fm. the center of the wheel...kasi nga bigger diameter sya -yung rims...and that increased Rotational mass/inertia requires a bit more fuel for the engine to turn the tire/wheel. handling wise and porma wise of course the bigger mags are better IMO...

ang problema kasi nung stock 16"mags , is that their quite heavy so its robust enough not to crack in our extremely bad roads...

well to each his own.

[mda]

^ Tama rin,

But if the weight difference between the smaller / larger rims when the tires are mounted are negligible, there probably won't be a significant effect on your fuel consumption/acceleration/braking figures anyway.

Might as well sacrifice a little for your car's better looks

[LeapFrog]

^ syempre kung forged 15s vs forged 17s...ramdam mo pa din ang increase sa perf.

Lolz parang ako kabaliktaran ginawa ko dito ah.. hehehe From 195/50/r16 nag upgrade ako ng tires to 195/55/r16. Pero laki ng pinagbago ng ride quality


according to the tire size calculator:

Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revs/Mile Difference
195/50-16 3.8in 11.8in 23.7in 74.4in 852 0.0%

195/55-16 4.2in 12.2in 24.4in 76.8in 825 3.2%

bro pictures naman ng rim mo patingin. Thank you

[henyomzky]

is it true that an OEM honda jazz side skirts will cost us around 32k? pls confirm po..

[LeapFrog]

^ better call their spare parts dept. Or ask those who upgraded to Js, Mugen or Noblesse if you can buy their OEM side skirts. HTH.

[rxr]

mga sir anu kaya opinion nyo maganda kaya tingnan if magpalagay muna ako ng js na wing then mag drop ako with stock mags on my 1.5 jazz? then tsaka naku magpalit ng mags at mags pa noblesse pag may budget na..

[jmpet626]

imho lang sir parang hindi pa bagay pag naka spoon/j's wing tapos stock mags. Dapat sabay sila or mags muna.

[red07]

I agree, shoes muna bago body kits =)

[bwiseat]

I agree, shoes muna bago body kits =)

+1 pa with wheels first before kits.

[LeapFrog]

+1 sa wheels/tires upgrade bago j's wing. imo, medyo ricey pag ito inuna mo. pero, kung trip mo talaga, you can go ahead kasi its your money and car naman. pampalito b? hehehe

Na-misinterpret ko tong question nya. Kung wing lang naman pala eh sa tingin ko medyo okay lang basta hindi body kit since okay naman ang stock 16's ng 1.5 variant.

[red07]

May USDM wing na available na kay c3x4 ha, any feedback on this?

[jmpet626]

yung parang nasa fit sport?
