The Best Brand of Tires

[Salanguit]

Ask ko lang po, Mirage GLX po yung unit ko, pag nagpalit ba ako ng 15" mags, matagtag kaya since di po sya katulad ng GLS trim na may stabilizer ata yun? Stick ba ko sa 14" nalang? Then, anu po magandang sukat ng muffler, na hindi kapos at hindi sakal yung sasakyan. Bka po kasi may sukat, ano pu yung ideal?

totally different market yung dalawang models na yan

re002 advantages:
-suited for spirited driving.
-great handling and cornering properties
-great steering feedback
-great dry and wet grip!

re002 cons:
-wears faster than ecopia (depending on how you drive, baka abutin lang ng 35k to 45k kms yung re002, less if you do frequent city driving
-more tire noise than ecopia
-road debris magnet
-ecopia is way suited for comfort


if city driving lang, ok na ecopia.

Salamat idol, but how about ecopia? any pros and cons?
First time ko kasi magpapalit ng gulong at 75% city driving ako.

Permission to post po, maganda po ba yung black lion tire?

[dishcom]

Mag tatanong lang po.
Totoo bang mas stable ang takbo ng auto sa hi speed, kung mas malapad ang gulong.? I have hyundai eon, stable siya hangang 120 base on my experience. Pero sabi ng bayaw ko mas stable pa daw lalo kung lalapad ang gulong ko,

[R0TC1V]

As long as mababa talaga un center of gravity mas stable, the more un surface na nalalapatan ng gulong sa concrete mas madami un kapit versus lesser surface na na o occupy ng smaller radial/s.

[dishcom]

Pag 140 na kasi parang tumatalbog na. So ma leless yun pag malapad ang gulong sir,

Wider tires will also consume more fuel.

I actually observed this with my car. Stock was 175/70/14 (dia. 602 mm), upped to 185/70/14 (dia. 616 mm). FC worsened initially. Still w/in the 3% advised. Used to ave. 5.3-5.5 L/100, immediately down to 5.7-6. I think it's the effort to roll the bigger tire from a stop.

[dishcom]

I see. Thats the effect of bigger tire. Maybe dahil mas mabigat? Or mas mahirap e roll?

Pero more grip on the road. Means more safe?

[Walter]

Wider tires will be able to provide more grip when cornering and stopping (assuming the brake system can handle it).

My stock rims, 17x7.5J ( I have no idea what 7.5J means, is it 7.5 inches??)

currently on stock rubber, 205/50/17.

How much wider can I widen the rubber (if that's possible) or do I have to upgrade to wider rims too just for the little widening?

Currently very happy with my Continental CP2E. What would be better but not significantly more expensive? I like the grip of the Continental especially in wet but the noise is just bothering me esp on imperfect/unpaved roads. On fresh, properly done tarmac though, it's very quiet.
