If change RIM + Tyre... cost expensive...

But I saw Michelin PS3 doesn't have R13,

then save money lor. . use the M3 first ba. .regard its a non gripping tyre for normal daily usage, its fine.
even my SE is still with the stock M5 aje. . with strut bars and anti roll bar installed mine u. .
new car, got many expenditures. .loan la, maintenance la, insurance la
and some eenee mineli poison here and there. .
if u want say coz new tyre want trade in for other tyre, then up to you lu. . for me waste money aje. .
the $ used to change new tyres, I can take and do other mods first. . when I am happy with all the mods baru I tukar tyre (when thread habis). .
M3/M5 bad grip on dry, yes
M3/M5 very the farking bad grip on wet, farking yes
but yet I am still surviving with my M5 and still whacking konars; throwing my dogs from left to right inside the car.

PS3 is performance tyre ma. . 13 and 14" tak ade mia.

What you said are exactly all inside my mind... start learning about tire first.... My car still stock saga, no change anything also...

Hmmm...

Usually, we change tire after how many KMs? 10k?
*
shocking.gif 10k ? no la. . so fast meh, pokai lor everybodi. . we drive normal car only, not F1 laugh.gif

then play with ur car first lor.
learn more about ur car sin, the characteristic, behaviour, and etc.
once u get hold of it, then only change tyre, oso not late la.

the cibaistone should be able to last 80-100k depending on how you use. .
my M5 now ard 37k, i think around 50% thread left.
other non mileage tyres maybe 60-80k gua.
tyres don see mileage mia.
see thread and date of manufacture.

in fact, IMO, it's better to use lousy tyre now so that you know how the car behaves when its going out of control.
because u know the tyres are lousy so u tend to be more caution with every step.
with lousy tyres, u some how get a feeling where is the limit of ur car.
with such training, when u change better tyres d you can gauge how hard you want to push it. .

otherwise, if u straight start with good tyres, u do not know how to appreciate them and do not know how hard to push.

just like us being human, must go through bitter then only know how to appreciate the sweetness after the bitter part whistling.gif

lol. I every month around 1k millege.. dono need to change how long..

tyre change guide as below:

1) bengkak << usually due to potholes
2) pancit
3) thread habis (see thread indicator at the longkang)
4) already 4yrs+ from date of manufacture << rubber will harden over time
5) thread wear pattern not uniform until too serious due to alignment/camber/toe lari (can change to back if don wan change)

Honey ciken still got ar? I tot close shop ady geh? Shifted to where ar?

ppl say shifted to Tranchell Street; inside shoplot d.
I purposely went there but din bukak.
Not sure whether I am looking at the correct shop because the shop is still at the wai sel kai ? But the shop name memang wonderful chicken.
I oso read that last time it was a stall like pasar malam. So i assume it the correct shop since its not a stall anymore.

Din open nvm. But why they call wai sek kai when there is only a handful of stalls. My 10 fingers oso cannot use finish if want count.

In the end, went back to Hoong Tho for sang har meen. Then get free jam due to Thaipusam.

Why would there be loading ?
*
coz I fucuk ppl ass before lor. .
insurance co has the right to add certain % of loading charges if they deemed you are a careless/dangerous & etc driver and have the potential to be involved in an accident again.
insurance co will lose $ as you will most probably make claims.
in other words, they viewed me as a high risk potential claim customer.

all this while only know vehicle age & driver age will end up loading.
what u mention i only know it exist oversea.. in msia first time heard of it..
Thanks for explaining.

can say both of us bad luck. .
my car is FEB 2012 car.
2013 I change to lonelypack d. .
so FEB 2013 I changed, somewhere March / April cucuk ppl d. .
if I am lonelypack ppl, I will wtf, this fella baru aje transfer mali sudah buat claim shakehead.gif

and yes, vehicle age is korrect . . in general terms, insurans co view older cars = lesser roadworthiness (as per current nation hot topic), so got potential get involved in acident.

young drivers = no experience / reckless / careless / dangerous drivers. . so also got potental get involved in acident.

in my case, maybe rekod tak baik to them gua. . baru aje transfer over, sudah buat claim. . so they ma chaj loading gua. . but that is the insurans co itself la. .
but the same insurans co agent quoted me without loading charges flex.gif

lonelypack quote = insure 37k + 15% loading caj
lonelypack agent quote = insure 36k, no loading caj laugh.gif

in general terms, something like below

QUOTE
Loading
The most commonly used loading factors are your age, any adverse driving characteristics, cubic capacity (engine CC), specific claims experience of your vehicle and re-conditioned vehicles. The insurance company can apply a loading on you to ensure that the amount charged commensurates with the risk borne by them

keyword for why insurans co incl. loading caj
