Anong bagay na rims at sukat ng gulong sa pizza pie 97? stock is 14 right? okey ba ang 16? or masyadong itong malaki?ano ang impact nito sa performance ng car?do I need to change anything(sa stock) aside from the gulong? (e.g. shocks?springs, etc?) salamat sa mga sasagot... I need opinions before I change the stock wheels and rims sa pizza pie. ty again.
IMO 16 inch rims for the 97 Lancer is still small. Stock nyan is 15 so going +1 wont net you that much visual difference. a +2 or even a +3 will definitely change the look of your car. I have a 99 GSR and the biggest rims that I have used are 18 x 7.5 inch rims with 215 x 35 series tires...believe it or not walang sayad pero its such a pain to use everyday so I changed it na lang into Work Mesh 17's with Contisports 215 x 40 series tires. with regards to the design ay iba-iba naman tayo ng taste so it will ultimately boil down to your preference. you will need to change the springs so that the fender gap will be smaller and para exactamento yung tayo ng kotse...hindi parang truck. Tanabe springs ang gamit ko and the ride is firm pero tolerable naman. Impact sa performance? babagal ka sa acceleration for sure lalo na pag 17 and up ang nilagay mo pero the handling will be sharper and more agile lalo na pag 40 series with performance springs. good luck sa investment mo bro.
15" rims would be fine for a pizza pie... 195/55/15 tires... bagay ang gram lights or racinghart replicas. tapos kung gusto mo magimprove ng handling and looks, drop mo ng konti. i think H&R offers their OE Drop lowering kit (1" drop) for the pizzas.
thanks.. since baguhan lang ako.. eh I'm actually attracted to the brand than the actual looks. and worry ko lang kasi eh may chance na ma-'bingkong' ang rim in long drive? would it happen to those 'branded' rims? like momo for example? (as i've said, newbie ako, the only thing I know is momo rims.. are there any rims better? but those are expensive). Gusto ko rin kasing mag-mukhang 'pogi' ang auto ko.
saan yang H&R ssaloon?may sticker na H&R yung auto ko (nabili ko lang ng 2nd hand yan)..i don't know kung lowered na yun pero sabi ng tropa ko, 'parang' lowered na sya.. i still can't see the difference unless someone who knows cars would tell me.. I'm planning to go to Speedyfix's shop sometime next week.. dapt 2 weeks ago pa kaso naging busy naman ako, plus may pera na ako pambayad since sahod na! yahoo!
fusionR yung name ng shop nya located along e. rodriguez.
i think it's best that you stick to ROTA (tangkilikin ang sariling pinoy hehe) tried and tested na ito sa durability and di naman nagkakalayo sa qeight vs. the orig ones (pagdating sa 15"ers) plus the leftover cash you save from not buying the orig ones, you can use for further mods ;)
if you're coming from tomas morato, turn left at e.rod... tapos lampasan mo yung unang street sa right, makikita mo yung fusionR... katabi nya bilyaran.
16" rims cost around 12-13k per set, tapos yung goma, mga 3.2-3.7k per piece.

correct. in addition to what you have said the increase in the unsprung weight of the tire/rim contributes also. Yung mga local at Taiwan na 17, 18 and up na mags ay mabibigat compared to the German and japanese rim manufacturers. Minsan nga pati yung braking affected pag nag +3 and up increase ka lalo na pag naka ABS yung kotse.

curious question... pano naman yung mga cars na naka 18" and up na OE wheels? compensated for na yung braking systems nila for the upsize in wheels, e.g. ABS, EBD, etc?

yes. Cars that have size 18 and up rims are usually the high end cars and/or the supercars like Ferrari, porsche, Jaguar etc. Their engines, ABS, EBD, traction control, trip computers etc. are all calibrated for the diameter of the OEM rim/tire assembly.
opo.. sa tingin ko po yung mga cars na may 18" as stock.. ndi magkakapproblema,... hehe but baka magkaproblema mga yun pag mag palit sila ng 15"s hehe... baka ndi kasya brakes... sumama handling.. at iba pa... hehe
btw... i have the same problem as sir mgbrillo... i have lancer gsr... pizza pamily din po.. hehe and i want new rims.. gusto ko sana.. smtn special eh.. smtn ndi ko lagi makikita sa road.. im not a racer.. i dont realy care about weight ng rims.. but.. magkano po kaya aabutin 18s? yung locals lang po.. kasya po kaya ito sa gsr fenders nang walang sabit.. kahit i-lower ko ng kaunti? ryt now kasi im riding on stock 15"s 55 series.. sa totoo lang.. ndi ako masyado attracted sa 15"s nabibitin ako sa size.. actualy.. my older car(a corolla ae101) had mags.. i changed it to 16"s and nabitin ako.. i wished i had 17s nalang.. but.. than time mahal pa 17"s so nagtyaga nalang ako sa 16"s minimal sayad lang naman.. but.. kulang tlga sa looks fac tor.. hehe ano po masusugest nyo? also.. im looking for a 2nd baka lang po may ma-advice kayo.. but kung 2nd hand i want smtn po sana na still in perfect condition... and a set of lowering springs po sana.. but budget ko for springs is only 4t... hehe pag higher pa kasi... ipon nalang ako for new ones.. tnx
btw.. same lang ba suspension namin ni sir mgbrillo? baka kasi ndi match springs namin eh.. tnx po uli
uy. daming sagot dito.. thanks mga pare.. hindi pa rin ako nakabili ng rims at gulong.. i'm thinkin' about getting 17" pero baka naman matagtag.. i go for the looks syempre, like A C's.. di ka naman makamabilis na takbo dito sa metro manila unless you go out sa madaling araw :-) yeah.. tight budget.. i can go for 10-12K pero sana rims at goma na yun... also, i may need to lower the springs? H&R madalas kong makita sa mags (and Neuspeed, tama ba yun?) anong diff nila with other brands? is it just the brand name or may 'performance' difference?
