Where can I find an extra pair of these mags?

[notEworthy27]

my dad will be sending over his "leftover" steel wheels. I'm still waiting for the brand and part#. Of course, this will go to my ride. Where's the best place to find surplus wheels like these?

[chieffy]

bro ayaw lumabas pic...

[notEworthy27]

ayan naayos na. :D

[Ungas]

Dami nyan sa 2nd hand tire dealers... Blumentrit area pa rin!

15x10 ba or 15x8, looks like 10" it will not look good on your strada, not to mention that it will increase wear on your front suspension and steering components.

[notEworthy27]

how come? wouldnt it be wider?

[Ungas]

15x8 will fit with no problems, pero kung 15x10 ang pipilitin mong sukat... it'll be an expensive trial/testing procedure.

[ARB]

pag 15x10" it would be too heavy on the front end components, and not to mention the unsprung weight, you will feel it pag nahulog sa lubak ang tires mo. and the dirt the side of you car will encounter you wish you had not put one on. boderline 15x8 lang. steel wheels pa yan it much heavier than most alloy rims, acceleration will suffer so as mileage.

[notEworthy27]

ARB:: what do you mean by unsprung weight? Dirt, I could handle that.What are the possible front end components which would experience increased wear?

Ungas , what do you mean by expensive trial procedure? Is there a possibility that the tires won't fit? Before I forget, will having wider wheels require the use of wheel spacers?

[kimpOy]

kung 15x8 yan, pa powdercoat mo ng flat black...

di ba yung ROH ganyan ang design

[notEworthy27]

ROH? dude, na try mo na ba mag 15x10?

[kimpOy]

15x8 lang sa strada pre...

[notEworthy27]

so di kaya ang 15x10?

[Ungas]

Ilan na kaming nagsasabi, kung gusto mo talaga subukan why not? Experience will still be your best teacher.

[ARB]

increased wear on all components, ball joints, tierods, shocks, centerlink. when tires and rims are hevier than stock you will feel it when you hit bumps, the way it translates the shock to your steering wheel.

[kimpOy]

correct ako nga nagbalik pa nga from 15x8 STEEL to 15x7 ALLOY
ramdam ko ang lag sa accelaration sa STEEL

[notEworthy27]

so how come there are still steel wheels available?

[tebs]

noteworthy,
kung pupunta ka ng blumentritt, paki-canvass mo na rin ako ng mga 16x7 or x8 na mags. yung mga around 1k lang.

wag ka nga mag 15x10. mahihirapan ka lang. lalo na makina mo.ang laki kasi ng drag nyan. lalo na pagliliko ka. malaki kasi yung nakadikit na gulong sa pavement. gets?

15x10's are not entirely impossible. This is Carlos' (aka cap510) GEN II Pajero. You can see more of it on 4x4wire.

He is running the 15x10 wheels he got from his '85 4Runner.

His first GEN II got wrecked. He is currently building this one up:


Here he is playing around with Ray Sala (aka off-roader, a Pinoy):

there are still steel whells available because there is a market for it. and also they are cheaper to make than alloys. it is not impossible to fit the desired mags, am just advising you my experiences with these wheels. i have tried a lot of rims already on my pick-up i still went back to OEM's because they are kinder to my front end components. i have tried gen.1 strada mags, 15x7 AR steel wheels, 15x8 AR modular steel rims, 15x7 Kosei alloys, 15x7 AR outlaw alloy, 15x8 AWC baja, and now stock 15x7 fuego rims. guess what everytime i changed to 15x8 rims i ask myself why did i change, surely it looks better but then for practicality 15x7's are great. but if the mags are free and all you have to spend is for installation and balancing then theres no harm in trying.
