Need help...di na ko natutuwa sa ride ko

[banjo123]

Need help po. Im using merwede 1.5 drop with 16 size rota quake mags and di na ako natutuwa sa tagtag ng oto ko...napa check ko naman yung shocks ok pa. Im planning to change my spring kahit close to stock lang yung feeling...nagrereklamo na kasi magina ko everytime nalulubak kami talagang ramdam na ramdam yung tagtag...na mimiss ko na tuloy yung stock ride. Patulong naman how to improve my ride. Better to change my spring or change size mg mags or palitan pareho?

[speedyfix]

well, compromises have to be made for the sake of porma. if ayaw mo yung tagtag you can at least always go back to stock

[empy]

ganun talaga bro. lowering springs are like that because they have less 'travel' to absorb bumps in the road.

[5Speed]

go back to stock....yan ang sakripisyo ng pagpapa-lowered nang sasakyan....hehehehe

[the_wildthing]

Stock talaga dapat... Set up for comfort and daily use.

Lowering = porma. Firmer ride. Lower center of gravity (But do you really need this if you're not going that fast?) Better handling (same thing, are you going that fast?)

The best talaga is you have another ride for regular use and the other is your "toy".

nag lowered kasi ako nung nagpalit ako ng mags size ko to 16...medyo tumaas yung oto ko...mga 5 fingers yung clearance nya sa fender. How about yung mags size ko...dagdag tagtag ba yung 16 or better to have 15 na lang yung size?

[TaNgENgot]

tama si sir wildthing...kung gusto mo may "pampapogie" dapat suportahan mo hilig mo..bili ka isa pa...kasi niliitan mo clearance niya kaya tukod agad..tiis na lang sa tag tag

may effect din size ng rims mo. kung size 16 rims mo, i assume na 40-50 series ung goma mo. try mo change ng size 15" rims w/ 55 or 60 series tires.

[ssaloon]

try mo palitan springs mo. based on other's feedback, medyo matagtag ang merwede. try shifting to H&R or other european brands like Eibach ;)

[hens]

sir, anong ride ninyo?..lowered w/ lowering springs lang ba? (putol?)

palit kayo ng shocks (gas type) or cup kit...

pareho tayo sir, GALIT na si kumander...hehehe (cut spring)..Next week darating na coilover ko..Yehey!!!

[odell]

pare.. try changing your rims to 15's pag corolla o sentra.. or mga 1.6 sedans.. ok naman tignan tapos smooth din ride

[27th_Faktory]

wah im planning to buy merwede for my CRV after reading this thread better go with tanabe or H&R.

hindi ba kung nag change ka ng lowering springs may chance pa rin na bibigay ang shock mo.

[ILuvDetailing]

ano ba advantage ng gas shocks?

[hens]

AFAIK, (kung matigas ang ride or matalbog?) wala yan sa rims or low profile na tires...Si Ogie aka Schnitzer4..he's rolling on 19's w/ 30 series & Andy aka ACT111 naka 19's din..pero naka Coilover sila..parang stock pa rin ang ride nila..

ang problema lang sa mga naka-low profile...maingay! pero, may nabasa ako na ang bridgestone tires daw OK..

[banjo123]

98 civic lxi....try ko magpalit ng sping na eibach baka mabawasan yung tagtag.

[ssaloon]

H&R the best!

advantage ng gas shocks ay hindi magbobottom out ang car pag dumaan sa lubak or humps. mas matibay din ito compared sa fluid type.

[odell]

pero mas mataas un stand ng naka gas than naka fluid

[ILuvDetailing]

Magkano 1 set ng gas shocks?

[banjo123]

i heard na yung Zee shop nag rerefill ng Gas Type na shocks and nagrerepair ng mga tie rod and ball joint....ok kaya don? may nagtry na ba sa inyo?

[ILuvDetailing]

Hear a lot of good feedback about that. Why don't you give it a try...
