NishaSahay Neutral Newbie March 31, 2016 Share March 31, 2016 Yes, changing a tire for every 2, 4 years is good, because it is important for the safety of your vehicle as well as you too. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashbang Turbocharged October 8, 2016 Share October 8, 2016 Depend on your car left how long... if got 1 year more then change 1 pair of tyres lah... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahbengdriver 6th Gear October 9, 2016 Share October 9, 2016 Hasnt worn down to the wear indicator blocks so technically can still drive on. Just that on rainy days be a bit slower as you might experience some squaplanning when there is PONDING. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that on rainy days be a bit slower as you might experience some squaplanning when there is PONDING. Correct. There is an indicator block within the gaps (thread) of tyres. Once that touches the road, it's time to change. The picture shown threadwear still within limits. Pls show a clearer picture with the indicator like below.

I think the indicators are towards the bottom of the tyre... not very clear but to me it looks like it's only a few mm above the indicator mark, not long left for his tyres.

Jamesc Hypersonic October 9, 2016 Share October 9, 2016 (edited) How much money can a person save by squeezing another 5k? Nowadays every day wet and coming to monsoon season so wet weather for the next 6 month. If it was me I would change. Any minor accident and lose NCB would negate any savings from delaying.

flashbang Turbocharged October 9, 2016 Share October 9, 2016 Really depends how long left to drive, if still got a long time then no point waiting. If left say 6 months I would wing it and be careful. Personal choice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberttan 5th Gear October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 Correct. There is an indicator block within the gaps (thread) of tyres. Once that touches the road, it's time to change. The picture shown threadwear still within limits. Pls show a clearer picture with the indicator like below. te technically the indicator shown can still last a little but physically the RHS already botak , you tire is 1/5 gone , will suggest you replace it for some brothers here mentioned how long more your car left before due for scraped , this is another scenario base on the Life of your car not tires anyone need to kill(confirmed) your car in next 2 years best is consider replace all them now . don't save dollars on your tires (only contact btw you and road) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahbengdriver 6th Gear October 10, 2016 Share October 10, 2016 the wear on the tyre may not be even on the inside/outside if there is camber(ie tyre slanted) in some situation the more botak side may expose internal threads/steel wiring, in which case pls change immediately as there is risk of tyre bursting.

Marley254 Clutched October 24, 2016 Share October 24, 2016 (edited) Well, I think you really should change your car tires. It's not safe to drive with tires that makes you feel is damaged in any way. http://www.serviceplus416.com/tires/things-you-must-know-before-buying-new-tires/ Here's an article I read recently on, what all you should keep in mind while dealing with tires.

frisjee Clutched November 21, 2016 Share November 21, 2016 Driving with almost flat tyres increase the risk of your rims being damaged and also wheel being misaligned (if one side wears off more than the other). Better to go and get a wheel alignment check if you wish to keep using old tyres (alignment service is cheaper than changing new tyres) ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
