    Dear Sirs,

    Good Day. I apologize as I am a newbie here at Tsikot Forums. I currently own a 2011 Tucson CRDi 4WD. I would like to ask you guys what off-road modifications I could do to my ride to improve its off-road capabilities? I would like to:

    1. Change the OEM tires and rims to mud terrain tires with appropriate rims. What brand or tire size would you suggest? Size of rims?

    2. Increase the ground clearance. What is the advised max height?

    3. Change of OEM shocks to more durable ones. Any advise on available brands?

    4. Change of stock halogen headlights to HID. Any advise on brands to choose?

    5. Install rear tow hook if possible.

    Thank you very much for all your replies. Once done would like to try it on the sand dunes of Laoag.

    Sure ka? The tucson is not designed for serious off road... Pero ask natin mga 4x4 fanatic baka mali ako.

    Yeah, i agree parang hindi pa yata possible sa current model tucsons. I dont know of any Australian aftermarket brand that caters the tucson, even the first gen. sa pagkaalam, kia sorento 1st gen and hyundai terracan na korean suvs lang ang sinusuportahan ng ARB or ironman.
