New Tyres

[Beanoyip]

Guys.. gonna change my 4 tyres soon. Any recommendable and affordable ones? Price range per tyre around 140. Quiet and good road holding preferable.

Hi,

 

What's your rim size? If they are 16", check out the link below. I think it is a pretty good deal.

Hmmm..... got 2 to recommend you

 

Kumho 712 - nice and cheap.

Toyo Vimode - Performance (on paper) is close to Pontanza Pole Position SO-3, price is about 150 to 160 each (for 205,55,16).

mine is 195/60/15 btw. I was thinking of michelin. Will see how this weekend. If able to change rims best!

[Skoda_Man]

If change rims upsize lah, 16" will look better.

[Beanoyip]

Yea! Upgraded my rims to 17" with AVS E100 i think. Cost about 2k. Some italian made rims. Looks nicer now

[Skoda_Man]

hey I want review on the tyres okay??? AVS is too expensive for me to try out so want some review can???

[Fabiaman]

Yo Beano, what rims did you buy? Any brand on it? Where did you buy?

[Beanoyip]

No brand. Its some italian brand made from there. Shop is at Sin Ming Autocare. Sin Tai tyres. 2nd storey same level as servotronic. Recommended by them actually.

eh bro.. i remember asking you abt the ATF flushing. Which brand or type of ATF must we use uh? And any ppl out there can tell me where can i get the window lifter. I'm desperate for it...

[Skoda_Man]

ATF flushing you can do it at BVO at Sin Ming. They are good. Not just plug in the machine and flush, but they actually start the engine and shift the gears around while flushing to clear everything out if you request them to do so.

 

For flushing use mineral ATF can liao. After the flush, please go get VAG ATF. Not cheap but last 40K

 

Hope this info is of help to you.

[Beanoyip]

Servotronic cannot do for us ? Where to get VAG ATF anyway?

[Skoda_Man]

not too sure if Servo got the ATF flushing machine, you need twice the amount of ATF to do flsuhing.

 

VAG ATF can get from C&C or those Waterloo shops.

Ok tyre report! Noise and comfort level is optimum. Road holding is SUPERB! 100km/h at corners no problem! Never heard a screeh from the tyres. Yea anything wanna know more just msg me.
