Oh no!!! Tyre master has spoken.... Haha... But if new then better use it until botak first, sinc the price increase for another 8% again...

limit your throttle input. i saved rm10 petrol a week by doing that.
slow nevermind but as long as u save fuel. besides the car will eventually get up to speed if u keep at that low throttle. only slow acceleration.

totally agree with you... u need to use to it.... my old toy (13 yrs old) 1.6L using 40 litter petrol for 300+ km only...


no tyre master but some ppl just don understand how a tire will affect the ride quality, handling, braking distance and also cabin noise...

In terms of highway FC... Camry still loses to Accord 2.0 5-speed AT. I got over 830km @ RM 120 of Shell RON95.

I would have bought a Camry 2.0G if the Toyota salesman have been nicer to me. Damn arrogant and rude. Did u notice my Honda hire more girls in the sales department? Try checking out Honda @ Mofaz in TTDI.

Bro,
tq for the tips. I guess I wont be changing it first... rugi man!

well it is up to you... have a few AW forummer changed their tires just after 1~2 months... of course have to fork out another few hundreds to swap to new tires but at least it meet your requirement...
i changed the NCT5 (98% new when installed) come with the 2nd hand rims for only 1 yr and did not even mnage to clock 20k km from it... really have to throw it away as it's wet grip sucks that is dangerous...
then changed my 14" CC1 even have more than 40% of thread... really cannot stand the grip it gives and the common problem (bilateral offset) on the tires...
it depends on individual...

Bridgestone tires on Toyota does not perform la... u thought Potenza they give you is good meh... just entree level for performance and it's sidewall is hard so got some ppl complaint y toyota suspension is hard... by right is just the tires... haha

well girls more easy to get sales kua... btw a lot of sales (car) did not even know their product spec properly one... so better do homework and test drive, then make decision yourself...

Bro, smart move! NCT5 is rubbish! my vios used to run on it and then i changed to michelin XM1, good!
I see ur profile pic is altis, u also own an altis?

Usually tyre that come from new car are by bulk... So, the quality are a ???? Because they need to make profit, so they won't give a good set of tyre.

haha that is an Altis Hatchback... from Aus... the photo i put there years ago... they called it Altis Sportivo 200HP on stock

not the matter of coming in bulk or not... is the cost... recently they switch back to Bridgestone, the tire's comfortness sucks... so choose your own tires...

Well, if you can save rm100 extra from the tyres, you are actually making rm100 extra profit...
I will even change my rim + tyres when it is still new. Got some extra value when doing this...

they will use what tire which offered to them cheaper... like Proton Inspiria, CC5 is like good cars with entree level tires...

Well, this happen evert where, basically...

What can you expect from Camry 2.0 147hp. It is a car tuned towards ride quality rather than performance.

If you ask about performance, based on my father '09 Accord, I can tell that the Accord 2.0 can easily tapau Camry 2.0 from 0-190km/h ++. Oso Camry can't take corner as hard as Accord could. I oso tested that Accord can also tapau Teana & Sonata. Ride comfort of Accord is also good. Damn nice this car. When i'm old enough i'll surely going to buy this Accord.

are you sure accord ride comfort is good haha... well you still have things to learn...

ur dad's accord did not tapau nasi lemak, roti canai or yong tau foo??

I have an '08 2.0 Accord bought in 09. While ride quality is marvelous... the NVH (outside noise) is terrible! Had to do sound proofing after buying it.

good handling but ride comfortness i still doubt a lil... i feel humps and bumps easily although it is on a comfort tires, can't imagine if it was on a performance (harder) tires... especially the rear passenger if long journey and bumpy ride then u know

soundproofing materials for whole car cost less than RM350 u know?
Haha
duno why many ppl got ripped off pay 2k++ .
If u noe how DIY + find direct distributor, any car also can sound very comfortable with proper soundproofing.
Not japanese nor continental car only.

In my opinion I think the Camry has a better ride comfort due to softer springs/absorber combination. Accord is a bit towards performance and sports mode hence the suspension is a little stiffer

Added on February 28, 2011, 10:00 pmThere are many types of sound proofing materials in the market. It's not that those paying RM2K+ is getting ripped but it's a different product altogether. What you pay is what you get

Well, there's people willing to spend that amount of money.... Atleast they can boast around that their throat was being slaugther.... People now go for branding rather than quality... Even with the fact that the branded are actually help a little bit....
