    ambaba naman ng ground clearance ng tucson, i dont know how even putting an AT tire would help you traverse an off-road. worse scenario, bad FC lang kalalabasan mo

    I tried offroading my Santa Fe sa mountains of tanay, sabi ko sayo, parang gusto na umiyak ng SF ko. di ko na inulet ulet

    If the offroading you plan to do requires more than what its stock form can do, I'd suggest taller, AT tires and perhaps a lift kit for improved grip and higher ground clearance. Though I don't know how big of an improvement that will give.

    Honestly, I am not very knowledgable with off road accessories since I much prefer doing engine mods. 2014 tucson off-road customization

    But it really boils down first and foremost on how much you are willing to spend for these modifications. Are you only going to change the tires? Or will you change the rims too? How much higher do you want the ride height to go? What sort of terrain do you plan on tackling?

    We have a Carnival, and it used to scrape its chin a lot when we were in Baguio. Upsized it from 225/70/R16 to 245/70/R16. No more scraping.

    Since it seems that you're not really into serious offroading, I'd suggest you start with the AT tires. Perhaps 245/65/R17? That's the Strada's stock size. Check if it fits the wheel wells. But do take note that AT tires are generally noisier than their highway counterparts and usually have lower speed rating.

    If you are still unsatisfied, then go with the lift.

    Yep. 2010 Kia Carnival LX LWB. It was simply too low for me. Even with tires the same size as the Trooper (which has a very respectable 215mm ground clearance) we used to have, it was still low.
