    ei wulf! mustang carnival? as far as i know in any car when switching from a smaller to bigger-sized wheel & tire combo ride quality will be sacrificed for better road handling.

    Mas matagtag ang lower profile tires. But if you are contented with your current settings, why do do you want it changed? For better looks, it would certainly improve but as they say ride quality will have to be sacrificed.

    Check mo kung ano ang PCD/bolt pattern ng sa iyo vs. the Eclipse. Ang Eclipse same PCD as L300.

    Minsan kasi kahit 5 lugs magkaiba pa din ang spacing like nung sa Escape vs. Vitara.

    true,
    just recently kinain ng bolt yung alloy mags dahil hindi match.
    hanggang sa lumaki ng lumaki ang holes, na lose thread and the wheel just came off,
    good thing mabagal lang sila.

    share ko lang.

    may 16" mags / 50 series goma nakakabit sa Starex (9Seater) namin
    same ata PCD ng Toyota Corona & Hyundai Starex.
    galing kasi sa Corona ung mags & tires eh.
    pero ginagamit lang namin yun pag nasa lucena.
    sayang kasi yung goma, mauubos agad.
    =)
