QUOTE(ZeroHavoc @ Dec 17 2015, 01:04 AM) hye guys quick question here Well what's your car in the first place, and what's the original tire size? Or is 215/45/R17 the original standard size for that car?currently im using 215/45 r17 size tyre, can i use 225/45(wider) size instead? will it affect my speedo reading/mpg thanks Btw 225/45 is not just wider by 1 cm but also about 0.8 cm bigger in diameter coz the sidewall is about 0.4 cm thicker/taller too (215/45 = 9.7cm sidewall vs 225/45 = 10.1 cm sidewall). So your speed will be higher by 1.26% for the same engine rpm. Fuel consumption will be impacted as well but pretty negligible. You can use tire calculator/conversion such as this to compare: http://www.sizemytires.com/calculators/com...CFawB4godjEMAuw |

Then by using that calculator link, you can see that both 215/45/17 and 225/45/17 are still fine to replace your original 205/55/16. Between the 2, 225/45/17 is better coz more comfort and wider footprint for better grip, so I suggest you to change to 225/45/17 instead.Thanks for the link really useful QUOTE(petra34 @ Dec 17 2015, 11:49 AM) Guys, Do you drive very aggressively? Coz I'm driving the same size but a much more powerful car than yours without any TRC/VSC, drive about 40km a day (which is 10km more than you), often corner a bit fast, using softer high performance tires than the Turanza (I was using Goodyear F1), and yet my tires can last over 50k km (3.5yrs)!need some advice on the tyre life span . i am toyota camry 2.0G (2012) owner. Purchased car on the Jan/13. My tyre change as below.Car is being usage in everyday basis of 30km perday. In average my tyre lifespan that i am getting is around 1 1/2 years. could it be because camry is heavy? Stock Brdgestone Turanza<215/60R > - Jan/2013 - August/2014 - <1 year 7 mths> 1st set Brdgestone Turanza<215/60R > - August/2014 - till current - <1yr 4 mths> QUOTE(arcdex @ Dec 17 2015, 12:41 PM) Michelin PS3 195/55/15 quoted RM235 including balancing Seems ok, some places might be cheaper by rm10-20 but not much.Is it reasonable ? or any other shop to recommend? Maybe try call OS Autocare in Subang if you live around Klang Valley. |

QUOTE(petra34 @ Dec 18 2015, 10:22 AM) As far as I am concerned I do my tyre maintenance accordingly, tyre rotation, alignment & balancing every service, but ya maybe some other aspect that i might overlooked. well the way we drive is also a contributing factor.i dun expect my scirocco front tires to last long because it is a front wheel drive, turbo and pilot is maniac. |

QUOTE(petra34 @ Dec 18 2015, 10:04 AM) No chief, I am not a very aggressive driver actually, i dont know if any other Camry 2012 users facing the same, but I have heard that one of my friend who is driving toyota altis 2012 has been having fast thread wear issue, and when, not sure if this is gotto do with the new toyota wheel issue. Should not be. I know many people who own Camry and their tires last much longer/more normal. I'm actually also driving a Toyota D-Segment sedan even though not a Camry. I suspect either:1. You drive very aggressively and/or 2. Wheels not properly aligned and/or 3. You never checked your tire pressures regularly and/or 4. You never rotate your tires regularly (at least every 20k km) and/or 5. Something wrong with your suspension which eats up your tires fast (maybe broken absorbers, worn out joints/links/bushings/bend arms etc2). BS Turanza normally should last at least 40-50k km. |

I've changed my 2 rear tyres to Michelin PS3 , but I'm still not satisfied with the noise , the noise is still there , I can't feel any differences between my old tyre with ps3 . Maybe it's my front tyres problem , I'm using Toyo nano energy 3 for front currently driving vios 08 , is there any good tyres to recommend ? In terms of noise , good grip in wet condition
I heard that continental cc5 is good , any others ? |
