Neat! When you say gulong ng Patrol, you mean sama mo pati ang rims from the Patrol? I always wondered if pwede nga ang fit. I saw one Dmax na naka Yokohama Super Digger with the same 16 na size, medyo naka-labas nga sa over fender.

Baka pwede kang mag post ng pics pre.

nice! hows the ride and acceleration?

try to check muna when you try on new mags lalo na yun medyo labas... I have done this with american racing mags + Bridgestone 265/70 AT's. I traded in my stock wheels and rubber... pero later on tumatama sa fenders when turning. so stupid of me! I reverted to stock size Dunlop grandteks... costly mistake hehehe

American Racing rims are great.

You mean you didn't check first if the new set would hit your fenders before you rolled-off from the store? Off camber adjustments are crucial too.

I used the stock dmax rims and just put on the old tires from a 2004 Patrol.

Correct ang offset ng stock rims I have checked the turns and clearance....everything is okay.

Para ngang gustong subukan ang 275/70/R16 eh...kung meron akong makukuhang donor tires.

jondmax,

congratulations on your new dmax....

jondmax - Bai! Congrats on your "white monster". I'm from Dumaguete City, marami rin tayo taga visayas here. Jarhead is from Bohol, Srbogoy is from Cebu, etc. You can also try browsing sa previous pages of this thread for pics of mods.

nice! congrat! change the brake pads? hehehe

But I'm not sure if this is already resolved with the newer units this year. On my car 05 model, after 6 mons I got squeaking brakes. Had the rotors refaced, and grooves etched on the pads as per casa advice. but later on, I had the pads replaced with non oem aftermarket pads.
