where is hup yik bro? i'm from ipoh too...

hi, want to replace tyre for my Honda City and currently comparing bridgestone (185/55/15) Vs Yokohama (195/50/15-recommended by tyre shop)..  really appreciated for yr advice..thanks

Quoted:

"245/40R19
Michelin Pilot Sport 2 - RM1080 @ Bridgestone, Sunway"

One Michelin 245/40R19 for Mitsubishi Triton cost 1k??  This is going to incinerate my wallet next week when my car arrives. 

Just wanna share with everyone, got a flat tyre yesterday after i hit on a hole on the road *thanks to the unrepaired hole on the road in KL*

I am using Goodyear Exellence 185/R16, due to the flat tyre at the front left, i left no choice but to go to the tyre shop and seek for advise. It turns out that I have to change the tyre because it cant be used anymore, there's a big hone there. The technician checked my tyres and told me that I will not be able to find Goodyear Excellence 185/R16 in the market, and telling me that, i have to take other brand's R16 tyres.

I thought they were honest and really trusted them. MANA TAU, they gave me Bridgestone Turanza 195/R16 and I DID QUESTION THEM on the decide for changing 2 of my tyres to 195 while the front tyres remain as 185, but they told me that, my car performance will be even better after the transform. The truth is, my car turn out to be so 'jumpy'!! I have been charged 340/piece. So total is almost 700!

I went back and tell them I am so not happy with the new tyres performance lor. The *DANG DANG DANG* the boss appeared and able to get my original tyres (Goodyear Exellence 185/R16) for me.

Here's another PROBLEM again! By right, i only need to change 1 tyre as I only have 1 flat tyre not 2! since I am changing back to the existing brand I should only need to change 1 tyre NOT TWO! I pointed this out to the boss, but he refused to change only one tyre for me, and forced me to change both ! and they sell me the tyre at 289, and i called honda dealer service center, even Honda dealer selling at 262 ONLY. So, PEOPLE, you see how they do business here, becareful next time !

Tyre shop I went is at Kajang - *Enkai car care centre*. They are so not helpful and so not honest ! So ppl, I do not recommend anyone to go there !!
