wow! congrats sir! how's the ride? Don't forget the tire black, it makes a big difference. Para laging bago ang itsura ng mags and tires. What happen to the impul mags?

Salamat Mr. VP,

Ok sana sir Impul kaso lang sablay un lapad ng rims.. nakalabas sa likod. dami ko pinasukat na broken size kaso di talaga pang livina.. kaya i opted for these.. karamihan rin kasi ng Inperio universal ang holes atleast eto exclusive sa 4h114. also 215 pinalagay ko para mag mukhang 50series un tires.. Regarding sa ride parang same lang nmn i really can't tell the difference.. pero may sinukat ako dun na 19's na Lenso. panalo!.. pasok pa rin pala, Sarap lang gamitin pag malapad ang gulong kasi kapit na kapit sa daan di katulad nun stock natin na medyo madulas.

I agree with that, yun diffrence sa tagtag eh konti lang considering na 18" at 40 series yung sa akin what more sa 45 halos pareho lang din. Ok talaga kung was malapad ang tires mas stable sya. For me mas gusto ko pa ride nung 18 ko kesa dun sa sixteen, ironically mas magaang pa ihandle considerng na 225 ang lapad nun. Rare ang 4 holes na 114 ang pcd kaya ok yan.

Wow 19 na lenso, baka naman may pics ka nun heheh? How come gusto mong mag muckang 50 series? for me mas maganda kung magmumukang syang 40 series diba?

nice sir!!! kainggit... di nakao pwede tumabi sayo hehehe. magmumukhang kawawa ako at baka tumulo pa laway ko.

I also like the tire size!!! 215/45/17. tingin ko swak talaga yan sa grand livina.

Wow Very nice sir. Match na match sa color ng unit.

Actually bitin talaga un 17 sa livina para lang macompensate un gap sa fender kaya ko gusto na mag mukang 50... and also sa driving ng wife ko.. wala kasing lubak lubak dun e.hehe

@eggy: naku sir nagkataon lang na may dumating na pera kaya nakabili.

@marckd1: Salamat sir.

awww, nice one sir!! sana me dumating din na pera sa akin. hehehe... skirts na lang

nice shoes sir! i'm also due to pick up 17" mags tomorrow. not sure which way to go with the tires yet, was thinking na 215/50/17 kasi my wife also uses the gl sometimes, and like yours, wala ring sinasantong lubak

bitin ba yung 205 sa lapad tingnan, that's why you went with the 215 sir?

and how much kuha niyo pala sa westlake? tia!

thanks for the post na rin on the offset, at least alam ko na offset ng gl natin.

Wow excited na ako to see ur mags sir, pa post ng pics ha. For me sakto yung 215/45/para sa size 17. between 50 series and 45 series halos wala ng diffrence yun sir, I'll go for 45.

Have you seen yung triangle brand ng tires? It looks good and maganda ang feedback. Gamit ito nun friend ko sa swift nya, ok to pulido ang itsura parang nangkang supersports ang itsura, at they're on the same price range.

Might want to consider before getting one. ito yun sight nya para makita po nyo design. btw i'm not connected with this company sir.

Got mine for 2.7k

may stretch kasi un 205 sa width ng rims i really wanted it "squarish" hehe

Post ka pics sir!

@pres: Tnx! Pag nakuluwag luwag bili ka na rin sir. Skirts siguro saka na mas gusto ko un SPOILER!

@chualie: San shops available un triangle sir?

@ chualie / cht2wenty4 - thanks mga sir! siguro mag 215/17/45 na rin ako, sana may makita akong ganon presyo sa evangelista, dun kasi ako bibili nung gulong. i haven't seen the triangle brand sirs, ngayon ko lang po narinig/nabasa. nagtitingin ako sa tsikot ng mga ginagamit na budget tires na ok naman performance, laging nababanggit federal evo595 and nankang ns2. pero i'll check out that triangle brand when i go buy tires, hindi nga lang pako tomorrow bibili ng tires kasi mags lng bibilin ko tomorrow muna. medyo naka discount lang po kasi last stock and wrong color (black) yung mags na kukunin ko from concept one. papa-paint ko na lang dun sa isang nagrerestore/paint ng mags sa grupotoyota. tapos i'll probably buy the tires next weekend after ma-tapos paint nung mags.

excited nako hehe

Sir yung nangkang at federal medyo nasa upper category ng mga tires nasa 4k up ang nangkang and nasa 5k up naman ang federal as far as I know. Nasa mga ordinary tire stores din yan triangle brand kung san meron westlake mostlikely meron din nyan.

You can look at our recommended shop n mechanic categ dto sa forum and u can call GTD in banawe, Gladdies in bluementrit, or even dub unlimited to inquire, u can also ask it's availability and price.

@ sir manok the best po ang original paint ng mags mahirap po makopya lalu na kung mga hyper colors to, plus nawawala din yun orig plastic coating na nagreretain/nagproprotect sa mags color and shine. You might want to consider this sir, Magwheels po laging center of attention sa car kaya most the time we r too excited in buying one kaya kung minsan apektado ang judgement natin dahil sa anxiousness.

Ako I'm always with somebody pag bumibile ako ng mags i need his opinion kasi medjo na haha-hyper ako sa excitement at this stage hehhee.....

pag repainting ng mags its better na sa talyer mo na pagawa kasi mas makapal ang coating nila because they are used to painting cars.. just my 2 cents. (also sabi nun magwheels center na malapit samin.hehe)

@ sir manok-- Ano na po nangyari? did u get the mags sir?

hi mga sir, sorry for the late post medyo busy the other days. i went last weekend to pickup the mags sana, and tried mounting them on the gl. unfortunately, di ko nagustuhan yung ichura nung gl, parang kelangan i-lower ng at least 1-1.5 in para bumagay, naging kalesa-effect kasi ang taas nung gl. i tried on 3 different designs, lahat ganon ichura, laki kasi nung space between the fender ng gl natin. di ko lang talaga magustuhan yung ichura, parang trying hard yung naging dating e, i also had a couple of friends with me at the time, same opinion sila. needs to be lowered a bit para bumagay ng maganda.

unfortunately, wala naman lowering spring pa dito satin that's specific for our gl, so i deferred on getting the mags muna. i know there's a lowering kit available in malaysia from impul, but it would be too expensive to ship here due to the bulkiness and weight of the springs. ayoko naman nag putol ng springs din. i guess it's not time pa for my gl to get new shoes oh well

@cht, musta na westlake mo? Pinag aaralan ko pano ko I swing na bili ng goma ng Kia, swap mags and tires ng Kia pati ni GL to get mags (rota) and tires para sa GL na di masyado malaki ang cash out. Gano na katagal westlake mo and ano tinakbo in kms, pati sa tingin mong percentage ng wear nya? Tahimik naman? TIA

Nangkang na lang sir

Nice and bagay na bagay yan sa GL mo.

So far for me maganda ang performance ng westlake. Un lang medyo maingay sa un even roads.
