Good morning guys,
I have few questions to ask. I noticed my left back tyre become uneven already, can hear the hissing sound. I using myvi btw.
1. Is it still safe to continue driving using uneven tyre? The tyre tread depth is still ok.
2. If not safe, do I need to change both of back tyres? because both of the back tyres are different brands. One is Conti and one is Silverstone. The uneven tyre is Silverstone. I believed it become uneven because of me using different brands. Please correct me if im wrong.
3. So last one which tyres you guys recommend? Think of getting Michelin
Silverstone will not in my list anymore. Last time both of my back tyres are from SS but after using only about 2-3 month, one of them become "bengkak" and I changed it to Conti. Then now become uneven pulak

Hi, imho,
1. May lead to unsafe condition in the long run
2. Normally, if you are referring to the tyre uneven wear @ 'tayar makan tepi' better to
- check air pressure
- check balancing & alignment
But since you mentioned both rear tyres of different brand / model, possibly uneven wear due to different tread depth, tread pattern, treadwear, etc. for each tyre even though both are same size.
Thus normally recommended to change same brand / model, both rear tyres, both front tyres or all 4 tyres at one time.
3. If original size 175/65R14, more to comfort & quiteness like
- Michelin Energy XM2
- Toyo Teo Plus
- Continental ComfortContact5
- GT Radial Champiro Eco
- Continental PremiumContact2
