Qns regarding tyres

[inlinesix]

Golden rules on tyres:

 

1. Check and maintain air pressure every 15 days

 

2. Rotate wheels every 10k to have even wear and tear.

 

If Front wheel drive, FL to RL, FR to RR, RL to FR and RR to FL.

 

All wheel drive and Rear Wheel drive, FL to RR, FR to RL, RL to FL and RR to FR.

 

3. Change all tyres together - same brand, same profile unless you opt for staggered when any one of them with surface getting close to the wear indicator button.

 

Safe tyres, safe roads!

1) not true bro, it depends on the drive you have

 

How much lost before you pump air? 

 

For my car, it takes 1 month to lost 5 PSI.

[Steptronic]

I fill up petrol almost every week. If no one, I just check my air every other time!

Every 15 days too xiong... I usually check once a month together with pumping petrol, and also a few days after the car is washed so not so much brake dust

 

Once in a month you fill up Petrol ah? wow, good mileage for you. 

3 to 5 PSI every fortnight.

You drive through the nails kept for coffins ah? Too many sidewall punctures everytime   

Last mon I had a sidewall puncture . Immed changed both rear. Same type!

Tyres barely 10k. Mine is rwd so more wear tear there


If people willing to stinge on such things drive by all means but if you die, do so alone and not drag others on the road with you

Nuff said

I lose 5 PSI every 3-4 months. So i pump like once every 3-4 months. Think my mileage is low and the car is light.

Michelin had tested,put 2 new one infront is Safer if your the other 2 old one is not very new.

Because should you lost front grip you can easily take control of front

should your back tyres lost grip , most driver will panic.

anyway you own and drive your car , you always has the final say/

BUt do remember , is just advice from Tyre Company

your car is in your hand , you control it and responsible for it

PIRELLI : Power is nothing without control

So for FWD, when rear loses grip, whats to correct thing to do to manage over-steer?

Never ever brake.

I would just step a bit on accelerator and tad countersteer to bring it back.

Thanks.  Sounds like FWD seldom oversteer, but when it happens, its like blind feeling to realign it.

I can't understand the logic behind the recommendation; If the rear tyres are the older ones, it makes it more likely for one to lose the rear rather than the front.  

 

how did Michelin do the test? can share the link?

 

but yeah. understeer is much easier to recover from than oversteer. Personal experience.

Maybe Michelin don't  support drifting

could that be a very specific condition.  Front tyres very new & rear tyres 'still new'

 

Which is different from the more commonly seen front 'OK', rear left half life or 'time to change' marker.

yeah I was wondering abt that, but the text says "not very new". So dunno how "new" is "not very new" LOL

It make sense provided the car is FWD.

 

 

[Roberttan]

sorry every body for your doubt

It was my stupid mistake

the correct arrangement  should 2 new place at Rear

and 2 old one infront (may be anything less than 50%)

you can easily find the video clip from youtube about the above

10000000 sorry

[Thaiyotakamli]

Yah normally new tyre at rear. Replace two min at once.
