Here's my 265/70 Dunlop Grantreks on stock rims:

Swak na swak with just the right width

ride is also now more cushy.

Welcome!

If I were you, I'd have the pick-up bed coated with Wurth brand spray-on bedliner as added protection. Chassis undercoating is also a must.

NEAT!

You've done it again my friend

so madali lang ba ang installation? Any complications? I think that the 50/50 mixture is better para more boost.

Where do you do your refill for the alcohol?

Memphs,
Tnx Bai, madali lang ang installation, no complications dahil very clear naman ang instruction na kasama sa kit.

ethyl alcohol pa ang mixture ko kaya 50/50, pero kung makabili na ako sa IPI ng methanol in gallons, maybe i'll shift to 30/70.

malapit lang ako sa IPI that's where i always bought methanol mixed with castor oil for my RC engines.

Does it consume a lot of Methanol as per your initial testing at 50/50? Why will you shift to 30/70? I think mas mura nga ang supply ng methanol if by bulk purchase.

whole day running ko i consumed 2 liters of 50/50 mixture, boost set at 10 psi, pero a few straight run lang naman. mas effective at mataas ang octane rating ng methanol kaysa ethyl alcohol,

^^^ Hello po sir and welcome po to Tsikot.com!

I had the same experience just recently just right after my 15k servicing, mga a little over 16k. Went to my authorized Isuzu service center here to have my brake lines bleeded for any air or moisture build-up then put in a fresh fluid supply. That solved the problem na :thumbup:

Incidentally I also had my front pads cleaned while I was there.

Hope this helps.
