    Hi fellow Tsikoteers, just want to ask for everybody’s opinion regarding my shocks. 2-3 months ago nag upgrade ako ng rims and tires from the stock size of 16s to 17s. It was a 205/40/R17 Nexen N3000 tire. Okay naman siy I had no issues with the ride comfort. However yesterday I changed my rims and tires again thru Concept One. It was the same tire specs however it was changed to Saffiro SF5000. Rims were concept one brand. After nun, naging sobrang bouncy na ng ride lalo sa uneven roads. Parang may tubulence sa loob ng kotse eh at parang matatanggal na ako sa upuan ko. Hindi ko naman sya na experience before when I first replaced my stock tires and rims. Read sa fiesta fb group na sensitive yung stock shocks ng fiesta pag nallift ng matagal baka nagstuck. But i dont think it was lifted for more than an hour naman. Some say give it sometime para mawala ang iba palit na agad ng shocks. I already checked alignment, camber and also checked if lugnuts were securely attached. Napacheck ko na din shocks if there are leaks and also they did test it per corner mukang okay naman it didnt really bounce back ng madaming beses. Pero kapag sakay ka na at umaandar na ako dun ko na nararamdaman talaga na napapagod na ako at nahihilo at the same time. I don’t know if ma-appreciate niyo sa video ko na inupload sa youtube yung pagkabouncy nung ride. Please help on what I should best do.

    Na balanced ba yung rims and tire?

    If you still have your previous rims and tire,try changing it back

    Just a hunch. Pero baka you need to have hubcentric rings installed.

    I got mine via amazon. You need to measure the stock fiesta hub diameter and your concept one hub diameter to know which ring to buy.

    Cant say. May center cap na nakatakip eh. Hehe.

    Anyway, hunch ko lang naman yon. If it doesnt go away, siguro might as well install one para marule out. Plus, it will lessen the stress on your bolts.
