Still considering whether to revert to 55 or not. Currently waiting for the spring buffers to arrive, will only make my decision once I've tried that.

By the way, what's the average age for tires before they wear out? Assuming regular driving of course.

I still have 13" stock rim with tyre, if u r interested to swap let me know

Thanks for the offer. Car in Taiping. Would swap to 13" wira jrd rims maybe, when current tyre need to change

Yeah~! gone RM160 fix rear wheel bearing.

vinod macha, it really depends on what tyre you are using as well. some eco tyres can last up to 70,000 km of normal driving conditions. some tyres only last about 30,000 km. on average, it should last you about 50,000 km before the next change provided conditions below are met:

- rotate tyres every 10,000 km (front to back, back to front, then exchange all corners, then repeat step 1-3)
- tyre balancing is performed every 10,000 km
- air pressure is checked on weekly basis to maintain recommended tyre pressure
- no hard cornering, no hard braking, no heavy load all the time

one side or both side?

bothside.

I need to double check on the mileage as I can't remember the mileage from when I last changed my tires. I am due for a rotation within the next month or so.

Still yet to install the spring buffers, been super busy these last few days.

both is is reasonable pricing then for it.

busy man.

I had all 4 bearing changed twice now.

newbie here, is there any speaker with good SQ and rich bass(preffered Pioneer)
is it necessary to drill speaker hole ?

what is your budget for the speakers? are you looking to install amplifier and upgrade your headunit?

front the front door, confirm need to cut the door card to fit the speakers. alternatively, you may straight bolt the speaker to the door like how our sifu, jaesern did it.

budget around 500, using pioneer MVH-155ui headunit, i think my budget not sufficient for amp yet
any pic of sifu setup?

ini kena tanya sifu post. i dare not post mine coz my setup is cheap cheap setup.

mine low budget...
just starting.....bought my car for almost half year

My setup lagi cheap

Happy new year everyone!

I've installed the spring buffers and they do make a difference, albeit not by much. One thing worries me though - the springs now make a soft but deep "creak" sound whenever I go over bumps. Is this normal after installing the buffer?

nvm, slowly slowly install all the parts then can become king in here already. xD

LOL! your one is stock standard audio ma.

could it be the sound is coming from the buffers?

I'm hoping I didn't install it wrongly. Anyways I'm less than 2k away from my next tire change, so I'll get my mechanic to check on it when he replaces the tires.

I've also identified the cause for the strong wind sounds in the car - the rubber lining for the power window is broken!

Wah! gap duration from the 1st change?

Happy CNY all.

I own the car for 9 years now, first change was 3 years after i bought it and the 2nd change was also 3 years after the first change. I travel alot so i already expected it, my milage was 255k now.
