July 4th, 2011 10:13 PM #1901thanks for the advice! magkano and where can I get one? I went back and read a few pages sa thread and people say that cooper tires are bang for the buck tires. Tumingin ako kanina ng pirelli scorpion's 265/70/17 and huwaw 12.2k ang isa. Kaya I'm hoping that the cooper tires are much cheaper. Another option is getting the stock montero wheelset which is cheaper than changing the tires.
off topic rin... mag iimprove kaya ride quality kung palitan ko ng old man emu yun likod ko or sabay ko na lahat? problema kasi wala akong budget isabay lahat.

hi sir!
regarding the tires....the size 17 tires are significantly higher in price but still the brand still dictates the price....if you saw my post in the mods thread the prices I mentioned there is for Cooper Mud terrains which is the STT's....now for the 17" AT tires of cooper I think its priced a around 7k its a 265/70/R16 you can buy it at Ryco makati which is definitely cheaper than the pirelli's...
and with regards in replacing the mags, I suggest you just stick with your stock mags and get the tires....but if budget permits replace the also with an aftermarket one thast the best way to go...
with regards to your question regarding the OME's I supposed your talking about shocks right?
if yes, then its ok if you only replace the rear shocks even though the front is still stock....but the ride comfort will be really enhanced if all four are replaced...

July 4th, 2011 11:08 PM #1903salamat chief for the advice! Palitan ko na lang all shocks ko to OME para ma fully utilize ang ride comfort. I am assuming changing the coils will also improve the ride?
Will check out the cooper tires from Ryco... Type ko talaga yun stock mags ng strada GLV and medyo nanghinina ako palitan kasi type ko talaga siya. Hassle lang talaga yun gulong maliit para sa sasakyan.
I am hoping to join the stradaclubph para makakuha ng more tips and valuable advice from the veterans.... :D Kailan yun next EB niyo for the NCR owners?
Thanks!

gud pm mga bro...
just a question:
yung aklase ba ng aircon ng 2010 GLX yung makakatipid ka sa gas kapag mahina/mababa thermostat?
i read kasi sa ibang threads this practice doesnt work na sa mga bagong klase ng aircon
salamat

ang intindi ko kasi sa issue na ito is:
1. kung mababa ang thermostat(low setting, malamig) it will entail your compressor to run longer and engage more often for the duration of your drive to attain your desired temperature setting. the opposite goes if you set it at high(less colder), the compressor engages less often. So i take it, higher temp setting means shorter compressor working time leading to shorter engine loads resulting in lower fuel consumption... theoretically ganyan dapat ang mangyari.
2. regardless of what setting you put your thermostat at, if your evaporator coil is dirty your compressor will be forced to engage longer and more often, kaya advise is try to keep a clean vehicle interior
3. the amount of fuel that you will save doing this will hardly be noticed in my opinion. if you want to save on fuel, less engine idling, lighter foot on the accelerator and proper shift timing(manual tranny) are the only things i can advice you on.
