    Hi. My wife and I are getting an 2008 Altis 1.6G M/T very soon and considering replacing the 195/65r15 tires with 205/55r16 tires like the one na nasa V model. Is this a good idea?

    Would you have suggestions kung anong ok na upgrade/replacement (size,brand,design, etc) for the stock? We'll be getting medium silver na color.

    Thanks in advance!

    go for 17's, sir para mas maganda tingnan altis nyo. you may use 215/50R17 para nandyan parin ang comfort. para sa brand naman ng rims marami dyan like concept one, veloce, rota, rays engineering (volk racing). for the tires naman marami din dyan like bridgestone, dunlop, falken, nitto, michelin.

    Why don't you enjoy your stock wheeks for some time, well until after the first year? But, if you really wanted to change them right away, the 16s you mentioned would look good.

    Since the new Altis is now 5 lugs (PCD114 kaya?), you might want to consider the stock 17" rims of the Camry.

    thanks mcbry, 1D4LV.

    medyo nalula ata ako sa 17". hehehe. di kasi sanay sa malaking gulong - saka baka out of budget na. in any case, may idea ba kayo sa costs? suggestions sa ok na design? engot kasi ako sa mags & tires e.

    Im looking for a budget of 25-30k sana na additional cost sa trade-in ng stock tires/mags.

    salamat ulit

    Medyo matagtag na rin po ang 17" rims. 16"s are the best compromise for me
