Pakistan tour with family in Toyota aqua

[pwuser153285065289]

This summer I have planned to go on summer vacations to the northern areas of Pakistan with a family of three I own a 2013 Toyota aqua (s grade) just wanted to know what kinds of modifications should I make to my car I face a lot of ground clearance issues here in Karachi. Just wanted to know that should I change my tire to bigger ones or all terrain tyres or let the tire remain stock should I change my shock or add spacers for increasing ground clearance or any kind of special tuning that I will have to do. I will be going to the following places (Naran,hunza,skardu). Urgent help is required any further cooperation would be a huge pleasure

I went to Khunjerab pass November last year on Aqua S 2015 via KKH (2 persons). No modification required, car just hit twice which was my own fault, Drive carefully no problem.
Can't say much about KKH-Skardu road, i heard its under construction, i traveled on it in 2017 road is not good you have to go slow to save your car.
No tuning required if you maintain your car, Use 0W20 engine Oil with Toyota Genuine OIL filter and AIR filter. Your tire should be relativity new. Maintain all Oil and coolant levels before leaving, keep extra engine oil filter and coolant bottle (1 Liter) just in case. do not let your fuel below half point in northern areas.

Irrespective of your travel plan, you definitely need a change of tyres.

Yes you need to change your Tyre immediately, even if you are not travelling to north

with a family of three

I thought you are travelling with a child, so that's why I said no problem. with four persons it could be an issue never went there with four person so can't say much.
you can do following check weather it will be an issue or not,
Measure the height of your car from ground just ahead of rear tyre, with four persons and two persons if difference is not much then i think it will be good to go, preferably those persons who are going with you.

I'm also planning a tour to skardu on Toyota Aqua next week. Please guide if spacers required or not.

It will definitely get hit.

Specially if 3-4 persons are sitting, and if 4 then you need to be extra careful even with spacers.
