    ang sabi nila, pag sumabog daw o nawalan ng grip ang rear tire, mas mahirap i control.

    rear tires act like the feathers in darts or the fins of bombs and missiles. they keep the projectile (the car) pointed toward the direction of movement. this gives the driver some semblance of control.
    the tendency of drivers attempting to control their cars, is to put on the brakes. and if the front tires have good tread and the rear tires are bald, putting on the brakes may result in the rear skidding to the side and will then try to outrun the front end.
    remember that old adage...? "to regain control of the car, point the front tires in the direction of the skid." well, the assumption of that statement, is that the rear end will remain in the rear, and will not try to outrun the front.

    once the rear wheels start skidding (to the side), it is difficult to regain control of the car.

    remember also, that in today's cars, more of the car weight is on the front tires and less on the rear.. this makes the rear more likely to skid..

    i actually experienced this..
    driving down an underpass one rainy night, there was this stalled vehicle at the bottom. wala siya EWD.. when i saw it, i panic-braked. i got lucky, as my car stopped a yard before i hit it. (wala pa ABS noon..) but i noticed, after i had stopped, that my rear end was already about a foot or two, to the right of my long axis.. and all my tires were in good condition.. what if..

    bottomline... have all your tires in good condition.

    This true sir. Generally all 4 tires should be road worthy but that is not always the case in real life situations. Most owners will buy 2 tires at a time when that happens you have 2 of your tires new and the other 2 old. Question here is where should you best put your 2 new tires? To the front or at the rear?

    For me rear, follow the experts nalang lalo na rainy season. This advice covers all kinds of vehicles, whether front, rear, awd or 4x4 capable.

    Most likely scenarios:
    Front wheels are turned pero dumi direcho kasi madulas. Understeer.

    Rear wheels lumiliko kahit gusto dumirecho Oversteer. Sa sobrang liko pwede ka umikot.

    Mas madali i control ang understeer all day.

    Fyi michelin NA suggests you put the 2 new tyres sa rear.

    Ang harap macocontrol mo pa rin kahit papano pero pag nag skid ang likod.. well you do get the idea.

    Ideally 4 na bago, then rotate daw ng pa ekis front-rear left-right para pantay. Kung uni or bi directional ang tyres mo.

    Sa harap ko siya pinalagay for now. I'll buy two more in a week or two para lahat palit na. Do you guys also include yun spare tire sa rotation since same lang naman sila ng stock?

    Yes sir i include the spare in rotating my tires every 10k if possible or at the least sa 20k. Sayang kasi kung mag expire na lang yun spare nang halos hindi nagamit.

    Sirs, pansin ko na medyo matigas na yung clutch pedal ko. Nangangawit tuloy left leg ko kapag babad sa traffic. Paano po ba ma adjust o maayos yung clutch pedal?

    wear and tear po.
    replacing "worn components" inside the transmission housing, will probably revert the lightness and smoothness of the pedal to as brand new.
    but it won't be cheap. labor alone, to open 'er up, is already expensive.

    but try to see if the pedal needs lubrication first, before thinking of the trans. it might do enough to soften up the pedal.

    if the car uses a clutch cable, replacing it with a new one may soften the pedal.
    but if the car uses hydraulics for the clutch, as i suspect toyota does, pedal lubrication and transmission components replacement lang ang choices, po.

    Most likely you have to replace your clutch set. If its still original. Worn out pressure plate,clutch disc and release bearing. But first try to bleed your system before going to the transmission.

    Usually that's the issue with Toyota Corollas and the Vios. In our case, we replaced the clutch to aftermarket AISIN (which is an OEM supplier for Jap brands), and the clutch would be much lighter than the original clutch.

    I buy ours from Toyorama in Banawe. My Gen 10.5 still has the original clutch, what i changed last was on our Gen 9.5 Altis and Gen 2 Vios.

    Mga bossing, just would like to ask regarding LUG NUTS of the 10.5 Gen Altis, do I need to change it if I were to replace my rims with the newer sets of rims from the current model (11th Gen)? TIA

    Possibly not. My OEM 17s on the Altis uses the stock lugnuts that came with the car.

    Apparently not but the issue on the ZZ came out on units that extended drain intervals to 10,000kms with FS oil (no oil filter changes inbetween). Otherwise, those who changed regularly at 5,000kms or swapped filters at the least, seem to have no issue on their ZZs.

    My tires needs replacement, I was actually looking at the 11th Gen rims and tires to replace it. Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky enough to find one that suits my budget, until I come across with this one, which I think is a good deal.
