QUOTE(leehernandez @ Jul 27 2018, 11:00 AM) wow 100000km is a lot Yes. I'm impressed with it. When we changed to her second set, there was 3mm tread left on the first set Maybe good for a couple more thousand km. According to Toyota, 2mm is the absolute minimum.

QUOTE(zeng @ Jul 27 2018, 02:12 PM) ... but according to Associations of tyre manufacturers, it's 1.6 mm or 1/16 inch. It's like food expiry date lo. Can still consume few weeks after the expiry date.   |

QUOTE(wkc5657 @ Jul 28 2018, 07:56 AM) Even michelin themselves (with their vested interest), say can use up till 1.6mm safely (for their own brand of tyres though) : Noted. Learnt something new. Thanks.https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/products/...um-tread-depth/ https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/products/...ratings-labels/ “Safety is a result of overall performance, not just tread depth," said Roget. "Our tyres are designed to work right down to 1.6mm. As a result, we tell our customers that they shouldn’t replace Michelin tyres until they reach the limit. Sadly not all tyres perform in this same way. That's why we want to see a new rating system and performance standard for worn tyres." I guess for those on michelin tyres, you can stretch your wallet further to compensate for their slightly more expensive tyres.  I would have still changed it cos: 1) Toyota had promo at that time & it was slightly cheaper compared to what my regular shop can sell to me. 2) Tyres were approximately 3.5 years old. 3) Handling was not as good as before. Maybe it's just me. Wife mentioned the ride & handling is better after fitting on the new tyres. |

QUOTE(AlittleCb @ Aug 24 2018, 03:59 PM) i called to rabbit tyre shop asked for Honda City 185/60/15R, the guy there recommend me to go for 195/55/15R and instead of Michelin, he ask me to go for firestone / bridgestone (much cheaper)... i'm confuse now, shud listen to the tyre shop guy or how ? What does he mean not durable? Which model? XM2 or PS3? My previous set of XM2 was good for 100k km. I changed it before the tread was level with the indicator.He say michelin not durable.... |
