Hi all sifus,
Generally how long a tyre should last? Do we measure by years, or by mileage?
My Dunlop 175/70R13 have been in use for 3 yrs and about 50k KM, and looks like it's about time to change - is it reasonable?
A tyre shop told me if we rajin do alignment after every 10k, some tyres can last even up to 80k or above - is he bluffing?
thx.....

QUOTE(Chisinlouz @ May 13 2013, 08:58 AM) mine already near to 30k.. but alignment run away and cause both side of tyre botak. Other is just nice. May i ask how much alignment cost normally? normally they charge rm20 for wira (per car) - it seems car model/size affects the $. if you read some more here or in here http://forum.autoworld.com.my/index.php?showforum=61, there are shops that charge more but people still go because reportedly the quality is really good - i have no clue, never tried. 30k without doing alignment might be bad for the lifespan...
