Not sure on the tyre size but for the rim, look for a pcd 5x100 with an offset of +45 or less. Anything more than +45, you'll need a spacer to clear the caliper. Sa altisclubzz, may mga nagbebenta ng rims from time to time. i bought my 17" rims from sulit.com after months of looking around for an OEM Toyota rim with the correct bolt pattern.

With my experience with that Jazz and it's City counterpart, my main gripe was the suspension. I deep potholed a brand new unit at low speed, in a parking lot before and it made a very ugly, uninsulated, "thog" sound. I also heard it from another unit that hit a deep pothole while i was walking on a street before. But the Jazz is lighter to drive around in the city given it's compact size; can't comment on the fuel consumption though.

Good day altis owners! Lately ive been experiencing foul smell on the aircon. Amoy basahan na d natuyo. Pero eventually nawawala din after few minutes of operation. Same scenario happened with our montero last year. The only resolution what mitsubishi did is to pull down the evaporator for cleaning. Will toyota also do this also? Im only running less than 3k on odo.any same experience guys?:confused:

lagay mo lang sa fan mga 2 minutes before you park para mawala lamig

ganyan din sa vios, off ko lang cool before parking (esp. overnight) para lumabas na mga tirang lamig

tirang lamig lang naman ata yan foul odor eh

Parang problem na ata ng brand new cars ito. Bad trip lang pag may kasakay na iba baho ng unang buga. Try ko din linisin yung cabin filter baka mag improve. Pero dun sa montero namin same problem nawala lang talaga nung pull down evaporator na

Well tgnan mo muna kung kaya mo pawalain by cleaning or yun sinasabi ko. Both, cheaper and less hassle kaysa pull down ng evap

Mahirap yata cleaning ng mga evaporators ngayon dahil pullout dashboard yata. Try mo muna suggestion ni renzo

Nilinis ko na cabin filter and spray some microtex deodorizer sana magimprove, check ko tomorrow morning usually mabaho pag morning pagkastart.

Boss, tanong ko lang kung anong engine oil ang gamit nyo pati tuwing kelan kau nagchachange oil. Lagi kasing fully synthetic ang gamit ko tapos every 10000km/6 months yung palit. 2012 E yung oto ko. Medyo magastos kc laging sa casa. Salamat.

IMO, better to go for every 5,000km change oil, kahit regular/mineral-based oil ang gamitin mo.

Right now i'm using ZIC semi-synthetic, changed every 5,000kms at Toyota Shaw or Pasig (as they allow me to bring my own oil). It's also cheaper if you do away with all unecessary items (i.e. additives) which the CASA offers when you go for service.

Sir any idea po ba ano difference sa specs and features ng G variant from E variant ng Altis? I'm also considering buying the Altis this year..
thanks and hope yung ibang owners din dito ng Altis can share their thoughts also..
