for me its always standard 220kpa

MORNING pump, not afternoon. bec after heat it expands.

anything lower u need to pump regularly, some ppl dont like the hardness going over bump.

but anything lower than 180 will increase ur FC

Usually 210-230.

I pump 220. 230 too hard, 210 okay but scared it'll affect fuel consumption so stick with 220.

Mine myvi too. Same tyre size as yours. What pressure do you pump? Maybe try pump a bit higher

220 is the pressure, not amount of gas pumped in
So it doesnt matter big or small tyre, just follow the recommended pressure on the bottom of ur car door, driver side

Excellent for Malaysian weather as its technology is Japanese based and cater to Asians

Michelin is excellent but chips on Malaysian roads if you corner hard

Hankook. Quite all round if we talk about UHP tyres

Never tried Goodyear and continental bec my sizes they don't have latest tech or UHP tyres. 15 inch

Never use Silverstone and capalang brands or ull get into accidents easily if you are an aggressive spirited driver
