Tingin ko nga din tagtag dahil sa nipis ng gulong. low profile kasi. well pag nakaipon bibili ako ng mas makapal na gulong. M guessing na tire size is calibrated with speedometer or Odometer. If oem is 20" i guess they calibrated it na with it's size. Not sure din.

The entry level ambiente has 17" rims. So tingjn ko ito talaga ang pinaka-ideal for optimum ride comfort and good FC.

Matagal ko na kase plano yan with explorer who had standard 17 rims and 245.

I resersched american forums who changed their tires with low profie 20 rims, they all arrived at same conclusion, bad ride quality and bad FC.

That was year 2009-2010 pa. So I decided otherwise,

Physics-wise, i dont kung anong magic magagawa ng mga engineers to make good ride quality and good FC with 20" big rims,

It's form over function, sort of wearing a Converse sneakers sa basketball. Maporma converse, pero can it supoort the ruggedness of basketball.

Am not a beleiver of low profile, more tire sidewall, mas up for the job. And this is suv, dapat kaya ng gulong ang demands ng car na ganyan.

Nagiging marketing na lang mga cars ngaun. Napapasin ko, even HRV has 17" rims tsk tsk.

Generally you should try to keep within 3% of the original size. But for those who oversize their tires (off-road look), they don't mind the loss of accuracy of the speedometer in exchange for the beefier aesthetics. Just don't go too big without a lift because you'll encounter rubbing issues.

yes agree changing tire size may effect sa speedometer. Eto naiisip ko lang ha ang isang revolution ng 20" tires covers more road compare to 17" tires or wheels. Kaya in reality your FC improves but the mechanical ratio speedometer affected kaya they thought FC suffers. Parang bisekleta 29" is easier than 26" Just a thought

Addict ata ito Si OB....

dati..pero hindi na ngayon..still undergoing therapy he he he he

but in fairness to ob..maraming follower yan dito sa office he he he

[tonggressman]

what is better in ride comfort trend or titanium.. or is it the same?

Di po ba same lang ang diameter ng Rim and tire combo ng 20" at 18" rims? Since lumaki yung diameter ng 20 rims pero numipis naman yung profile ng goma?

Yung sa 29vs26 tires naman sa MTB mas mahirap pa gulugin ang 29er tire vs 26 from standing start.

Same lang halos ang overall diameter ng tires ng Titanium (265/50 R20), Trendy (265/60 R18), and Ambiente (265/65 R17). As the rim size grows, the sidewall profile decreases , keeping roughly the same diameter/circumference.

Unlike with bikes, bigger ang overall diameter ng 29er sa 26er.

Bro correct ko lang, the wheel itself contributes to unsprung weight. It does affect FC if the wheels are heavier than stock. If you want to change wheels, try using lightweight wheels like the original 20" Volk Rays TE37 SUV if you want lower unsprung weight. Medyo pricey but worth it.

Tire diameter affects tire revolution. So check first with gps speed kung accurate nga ba sa speedometer ang factory installed tires. Usually cars sold here run slower than what the speedometer says (ex. Speedo is 100 km/h while gps speed is just 95 km/h) because of tire sizing. If your current tire is 265/50/20, running a 275/50/20 could correct the speedometer deviation. For bigger diameter tires installed on lifted SUVs/Pickups, a differential regear is needed to correct power delivery and speedometer reading.

FC could also be affected by the type of tires used. 10-ply tires are usually heavier than 6 or 3 ply tires. A/T is also heavier than H/T.
