alternatives to concept one? help please

[bad driver]

Hello peeps.

I am planning on installing 20 inchers for my Gen III paj within the month.

Went to Banawe and concept one... pareho lang naman basically ang cost ng gulong (80k++) and wheels (mga 120k++) for a set of 4.

what else can I get for this price range? standard ba talaga ang price ng tires?

Should I get just 4? mahal na ata sobra ang 5th(spare. hehe. Usually ba, pag nagpablings kayo, 5 naman talaga binibili nyo dba?

lastly, 20 inches: safe parin naman sa lubak to dba? and I've been to pagudpod (dulo ng luzon) and I really saw no major lubaks or offroading areas. I think the whole of Ilocos has better roads than Metro Manila.
Bitin naman yata kung 18s lang ikabit ko.

thanks in advance.

Meron! Rota 20s, nasa 30k lang for a set of 4. The rubber is more expensive talaga. last time I checked it was 16k each, 45 series na yun.

So I took the offroad look hehehe. Slap in some nice offroad looking wheels(16s or 17s) and all terrain tires. Matibay na, macho pa hehehe.

or get something in between which is 18s like you mentioned... tires were 8k-9k last time I checked. masmura talaga

But then depends on your tastse... for me, ok naman 20's bling bling talaga! but I'm not sure about the comfort pero kung luxo SUV naman ride mo I guess minimal effect on comfyness since Im sure maganda yun suspension... 18's best compromise between looks and comfort(+safety in terms of potholes hehehe)...

my advice, get what you really really want!!!

thanks tol! I'm more into luxo-cruiser kaya I guess 20s talaga hanap ko Sa Manila lang naman ako nalulubak eh. Baguio-vigan-Ilocos... great roads.

btw, hehe...balak ko rin sana to slap-on highway tires kasi sobrang ingay kasi sa higher speeds (60 kph above). 20 k each... Toyo ata ang brands na inooffer ng most shops I've been to.

kaso if I spend 200 -250 k, that's 250k less sa Lan Evolution fund ko next year or 2 years from now. dagdag din sa pang down payment yun.

just came from autoplus, merong Volk Rays GT-Ego 20" (forged outer rim, cast center) nasa P200T set of 4! Falken 275/40 tires are around P18T each. Since long drive, mas ok pareho yung spare tire para kung mag ka flat e same specs/offset/height pa rin lahat.

These are the Rota's I was takling about... extreme pala name nya.

The best price I got in banawe was 29k chrome na(sorry forgot the name of the store)... yun mga Bazo and MKW are really expensive... abot ng 90-100k+ rims lang. add in the cost of the tires and you've got a 2nd hand car na pede mo nang pang harabas hehehe. just kidding

Maganda rin yun mga blings ng american racing which is the almost the same price. Lenso, mahal din. Kapareho nya yun prices ng Bazo. Try looking for League Wheels also. Its taiwan based I think. Meron yan sa Evangelista...

Pansin ko lang iba yun chrome ng imported... the imported ones have that x factor, but then it may just be me. and i dont know if its marketing BS, sabi ng isang shop iba daw yun fade ng chrome ng local vs imported... halata raw sa local within 3-4 years... But I guess by that time, upgrade na tayo ng rims hehehe

Bad Driver,

May rerecommend ako pero wag mo bilin kasi magiging pareho tayo.

ROTA EXTREME 20"

20x9.5" 32k yung painted 38k yung chrome. set of 4 na yun. Amfogi!!!!

Meron 14k na 20's Nankang yung brand. Pero dont write them off kasi Yokohama daw yun or subsidiary. DAW.

Pero i saw the 17" version of the tires and they look pretty damn respectable.

[pajerokid]

ei cardo, you beat me to the punch pala. Anyways, im sure misquote yung 28k for the chromes. I got my prices directly from rota.

thanks bros! will keep all these in mind!

baka nga hehehe or am i getting old? hehehe

pero maganda yun rotas!!! personally, they do look good!!! its the tires that kill me, mahal sobra. atkins diet agad bank account mo hehehe

[bad driver]

hehe, thanks guys.

Pajkid, don't worry, iba naman kulay ng paj ko eh. hehe...

Anu yung medyo common brand sa Banawe na Modena (?) ba yun? basta starts with M Ok ba yun? around 100 k pa rin.

Anu ang good shops ang nagcarry ng Rota? how about American Racing? Medyo Masyado ng Mataas yung 200 k para sa mags palang

lastly, pano irecalibrate ang Odometer/speedometer ko to adjust to a bigger diameter tire? baka 200 kph nako tapos 120 lang sa speedo. hehe... Or should
I try to get tires that matches my stocks' diameter?

salamats!
