mga paps pacheck naman yung link below regarding tire size calculator.. which will be the closest to the stocks wheels and tires ng GE which is 16s w/ 185/55/16

parang sa tingin ko its 215/40/17 next will be 205/45/17.. pacheck nalang din mga sir :D

[dambee]

and to add regarding lowering--- or for the meantime just stay stock and wait until budget permits. just something that i have observed, i've seen people change to lowering springs and then back to stock, or from lowering to CO, where in they could have just gone straight to CO, it may just take more time pero if CO din naman and requirement, then wait nalang until budget permits for coil overs.
just my two cents.

Actually priority ko is the ride quality second to that is ung lowered look. Will the coilovers improve the ride quality by much?

AFAIK bro the best ride quality will be the stock springs/suspension

[imogen]

Thanks for the quick resoponse imogen!
Nagstart ung ingay 2-3 months after ko magupgrade to 17 inches. After ko palitan ung mags and tires nafeel ko masmatagtag talaga pero bearable pa. Yung ngayon which is 1 year na from upgrade ko to 17 inches, medyo nakakaasar na yung ingay pag dumadaan sa not so smooth road. Yung kalampag sound pinakamalakas is galing sa front left wheel. Regarding sa coilovers, other than lowering the ride, will it improve the ride quality too?

front left wheel, hmm.. pa check mo na sa Casa boss, pero tama sila, balik mo stock mong rims, para ma warranty.. yung maingay sa daan, part yan ng sport tires, sabi nga ni boss jolens, you can't have it all, comfort and performance can only be together with high end tires talaga, pero may ingay parin, usually mga Bridgestone RE series yan may comfort and performance tire, pero yung ingay meron parin kahit papano,, yung kasama namen si C2fuschia naka toyo tires din, if I'm not mistaken, sabi nya lakas maubos at maingay nga raw..

regarding coilovers, ofcourse coilovers will give you the best ride if you pair it with proper tuning, yun kase mahirap eh, pag tune nya, andaming combination of settings, ang the best is coner weighing, may ratio kase yan para balanced ang ride mo, do this especially if you'll go tracking. ako kase tantsa system, hehehe!

and to add regarding lowering--- or for the meantime just stay stock and wait until budget permits. just something that i have observed, i've seen people change to lowering springs and then back to stock, or from lowering to CO, where in they could have just gone straight to CO, it may just take more time pero if CO din naman and requirement, then wait nalang until budget permits for coil overs.

+1 ako dito, eto rin lahat ng advice saken, antay lang at tiis, tapos I was supposed to get Maxspeed coilovers, then inadvice ako to wait for 2nd hand tein, after 2days, I got tein

closest is 215/40/17 pero mas manipis kesa sa 205/45/17 and sa stock. in summary on 215/40/17 ang 100kph mo is actually 99kph, sa 205/45/17 naman ang 100kph mo is actually 101kph.. if I were to buy now, I'd get 215/40/17 kase protection yon sa rims mo dahil mas malapad, mas makapal rim guard,, ingat lang when you turn your steering wheel, just be sure you are moving when you turn, kase mas malapad yung gulong mo non, mas mahihirapan power steering, electronic kase power steering naten at designed to turn a certain weight of wheel.

[dontdothat]

Called Bigbert's to inquire about paint protection. Baka drop by ako this week. 3 hours pala yun grabe. May maayos na waiting area ba yung sa Araneta branch? Or should I leave my car and balikan ko na lang?

Ang dali humingi nang humingi ng pera sa asawa kapag para sa car. Puro sige lang.

Correct me if I'm wrong, it depends on the quality you are looking for, stock suspension has the best comfort, coilovers has the best handling,, ulitin ko, hindi talaga makukuha yung dalwa, hehehe! it depends din on your preference, honestly when I got my coilovers, nawala yung harsh ride ng stock suspension, that's why mahal ang tein, yun lang on wavy roads, talagang wavy din ang ride mo dahil talagang nakadikit ang kotse mo sa daan, pero yung biglang bako, sa stock may kalampag na katumbas yon, sa tein wala, parang may dinaanan ka lang na hindi pantay na daan. my wife never complained with our coilovers, honestly she love them, sabi nga nya, iba feeling, walang body roll, sa nlex parang ang bagal lang ng feeling, pero takbo ko mabilis na talaga,,, actually boss ang the best dyan is sama kayo sa mga GT, then makisakay kayo sa mga naka lowering springs and coilovers, ganon kase ginawa ko rin eh, I tried Eibach lowering springs ni C2fuschia, natakot ako sa tagtag, to think na maganda raw talaga ride ng Eibach sa GE, then I tried Tein coilovers, that when I noticed the difference and at that moment, I bought the coilovers.

I like your last line mam, even if I'm a man, my wife always love what I buy sa car namen.. actually sya pa nga tong "Dear ang ganda neto! gusto ko neto!" syempre ako "tara bilhin na naten!" hehehe!

anyway, ingat lang mam sa pagpapa carwash, ayoko manakot, pero I'm not sure kelan ko nabasa yung news, bagong style ng mga carnappers is target nila mga babae na nagpapa carwash, be sure to bring someone with you nalang para di kayo pag interesan,, then regarding sa waiting area, big bert's araneta branch di pa po ako nakakapunta doon, big bert's ortigas has a starbucks and other places you can hang out sa tabi nya.. sobrang bait din ng mga tao sa ortigas at mabilis, pero tama po kayo 3hours talaga, kase they will have to detail(remove asphalt or contaminants first) then Carlack AIO, then Carlac LLS, papatuyuin nila ng 1hour, then buff off, they will also clean your interior, pero di naman detail, vacuum and dressing lang. 3hours is actually quick, nung ako umabot ng 5hours, marami kase non tao, hahaha!

imogen, yung ingay is not from the tires, ung klase ng ingay nya is parang masyado shakey na matigas parang nagearthquake (hehe malala na ba?) ung car pag sa mga ndi aspalto na road, parang feel na feel ko ung hindi pantay kaya i thought na pag palitan ko ng coilovers it would solve all the problems since may another kind of sound na calampag sa front left pa, parang "klok klok klok" sound..

got it! thanks bro! really torn between the two kasi nga its quality of the ride vs looks. pagisipan ko una mabuti to.

yup what i meant was the comfort. well really depends sa priorites ng gagamit. :D so mukhang stock nga muna for me then ipon for coils

yung klok klok klok sir pag turning lang or kahit pag diretso? pag kahit diretso, mukhang kailangan mo na pa diagnose yan sa casa sir, hehehe! yung altis ng ate ko ganyan din, napalitan ko na CV joint, okay ang ball joint, napalitan ko stabilizer link, aba ayaw matanggal, then we saw na yung shocks nya pag naka expand maluwag na, hindi man tumatagas talaga, pero nabigla ako maluwag,, mahirap talaga hanapin ang sa suspension sir unless talagang itaas mo at isa isa mong tanggalin at i check,,

sir another advice ko ibalik nyo muna stock nyo, then kung andyan parin yung ingay sa daan, then it's your suspension na talaga.

got it! thanks bro! really torn between the two kasi nga its quality of the ride vs looks. pagisipan ko una mabuti to.

hahaha! 215/40/17 na bro, tapos kuha ka yung falken kamukha ng kay sir jonas, para iwas rubbing maporma at mas comfy ang 215/40/17,,

stock muna sir, laspagin mo muna, sayang yung binayaran naten, hahaha! ako mga 9months ko nagamit stock ko, ngayon naka box nalang, di ko binenta, para in the future pwede pako bumalik pag nagsawa rims muna sir, kaya buy mo na yung rims ni uncle spoon kana non

Yung klok klok sound kapag dumaan sa maliit na butas sa road or humps na hindi swabe ung pagkagawa..Sige padiagnose ko nalang muna sa honda bago ko magdecide kung ano gagawin. Pero too bad I don't have the stock mags with me already. Thank you very much for the advices.

awts! that's the reason why until now I still have my stock rims, though without tires, hehehe! hanap ka muna mahihiraman na rims sir para mapa warranty mo talaga,, I remember complaining the same klok klok sound when driving on small holes and bumps with my stock suspension, sabi ng honda normal lang daw, then when I switched to 17s, yun yung nabawasan, although not alarming naman, yung feeling ko lang non parang naiiwan yung suspension ko or nakakalas sa bako, hehehe! parang hindi tight suspension.. anyway sir, goodluck and hopefully makahanap ka mahihiraman ng rims,, balitaan mo nalang kame sir

stock nga muna.. medyo masakit ang mags ni uncle. ahahahha!

hahaha! kayang kaya mo naman boss! ikaw pa!
