QUOTE(tanuk @ Apr 18 2014, 11:56 PM) Hi all sifus ... 205/45/17 is too small compare to your original sizes. You should be using 215/45/17. 205/50/17 also can but I think difficult to find this size.May i ask what is the recommended tyre size for perdana v6? Im using 205/45/17 now but have to repair my rims like once every 2-3 months 😠😠😠 Can i change to 205/50/17 or 215/50/17? Tqtq You also can use 225/45/17. Much nearer to your original tyre diameter. Its sidewall also higher than 215/45/17. |

QUOTE(tanuk @ Apr 22 2014, 06:33 PM) Thank you xxboxx for your reply. I would prefer 205/50/17 then. I worry 225/45/17 will look so weird and i prefer to use 50 because i wont be repairing the rims maybe 😅. Can't, the diameter too big.Maybe 215/50/17? Can? Just stay with 205/50/17 then, it is almost same diameter with your original size. |

QUOTE(dinnor @ Jun 8 2015, 04:20 PM) hi, just recently went to tire shop , Since the shop already move the tyre to rear, it's ok lar still can use. Only 1 tyre is like this? Just be careful when raining time. Don't drive fast as that tyre can't cut water properly.the mechanic said my front tire so bad already, he did an alignment and change that front tire to rear he said i need to change it since the condition already bad, maybe can use at least 3 more months, tire was silverstone brand as it come as stock tire for proton persona ![]() and i know it was my own mistake since i not really monitor the tire condition, mechanic said that i need to check and make sure the pressure of the tire in good condition, at least 2 weeks need to routine check for pressure but what i've already done? since i use that car about 1 and half year and the millage just about 22000 KM only, i did not check the tire pressure on my own, only let SC to do and check the tire pressure during services.

QUOTE(dinnor @ Jun 8 2015, 10:51 PM) thanks for reply, One side worn out faster (in 1 tyre) is due to alignment issue. Do you do frequent tyre alignment?both tyre at front but at right side that most affected, this kind of thing happen when tire low air pressure or what are the cause? You also need to do tyre balancing and rotation when do alignment so that the tyre can last longer. |

QUOTE(bladekiller @ Jun 10 2015, 08:36 PM) If shoulder then must see properly still within thread or already on sidewall.You mean the patching that they stick the black stuff from outside and push into the puncture area? That is actually only temporary solution, long term usage will damage the tyre. You need to ask them patch from inside method, they need to take out the tyre from rim and patch with a round rubber. More expensive about RM20 but the tyre will last longer. |

oh, come one.. do you guys know how dangerous is it to use bald tyre? some more until can see the steel belts??
below the threadwear indicator, the rubber compound is hard type, not sticky type like the thread rubber. using bald tyre even on dry road will not give same amount of grip compare to tyre with remaining thread. |

QUOTE(dinnor @ Jun 12 2015, 11:42 AM) QUOTE(xxboxx @ Jun 13 2015, 02:34 AM) There's no date to say how long can it last, depends on what the tyre have to go through now. Just noticed I reply wrongly, I thought you are the one with punctured tyre.If the tyre does not in contact with water the it might last longer. Just use your tyre until reach the threadwear indicator. the cuts, if it is not deep then still can use, if deep then better change it. Or if you got budget, just change 2 tyre first. |

QUOTE(temptation1314 @ Aug 6 2015, 10:53 AM) Anyone tried replacing with used tyres before? What do you mean used tyre for show one? Showroom car's tyre?My persona front tyres are gone case. Left side lost 10PSI per day and right side lost 20PSI per day due to multiple puncture + cracks. Gonna change them end of this month. Ask my mechanic and he asked me if I want to try those used tyre taken out from car used only for shows one. Approx RM150 per piece. CC5 cost RM240 now Then better avoid it like plague. Those car spend most of the time not moving for months, end up the steel belt inside the tyre will deform, and now the tyre is not perfectly round anymore. Sidewall cracking also prone to happen for such tyre because loss of air pressure over the time. For Persona the tyre not expensive, you still using 195/60R15 right? Survey around, most mid range brands can get around 160-190 per tyre. |
