Some GLs have been swapping their rims for what appeared to be black rhino look a likes. Sablay ang offset IMO.

Actually maselan sa offset ang Grandia based on what i've seen using aftermarket rims.

Same with GS, actually. Parang car-based ang offset nila.

What I've noticed are some Grandias (whether GL or Super) resort to the 6 spoke, 1st facelift Fortuner 17s. Since medyo nakalabas yung goma, they also resort to what appear to be lower profile tires. I would think this would lessen the load bearing capacity of the tires, right?

Ditto. The load ratings drop with the low pro tyres. Something i wouldn't risk on a van.

Nakow... pero maporma diba?

Just cross check the van weight along with the usual payload you carry to the load ratings of your tyre, and keep the tire pressure in check to ensure that the low pro tyres keep up.

Hahaha! Trade offs.

Our GS is not really meant for heavy loading -- mostly it's for me, the wife, 2 young kids and 2 yayas -- so proper inflation on the low profile tires have been doing the trick.

Have taken it to Dinalupihan in Bataan and San Juan in Batangas with my usual passengers + 2 more adults and gear. Will revert back to stock for an upcoming Baguio trip para sure.
