Have a question for motor expert gurus here. Everytime my tyre puncture, the motor shop ppl always ask me to change the tyre. saying its too thin. Thin as follow the picture. My tyre now still original from the time i buy de motor.
Is it true that bigger is better? If so can recommend which wan to get? Was hoping to find a tyre which can help me reduce my tyre puncture ratio. i dont think i need a tubeless tyre bah. my rim still good. dun wan to change to sport rim yet. probably around RM50 each can already, jb standard.
Read in previous post about Dunlop TT900. is it a tubeless tyre?

Don't see what's the difference in the diagram you drew. If you run over something sharp at the bigger part also it would still blow what? Like the mech said himself mar, it's too thin, not small. If your tyre as big as lorry tyre but thin like a piece of paper also no use what

When you say puncture you mean usage puncture or run-over-nail puncture?

Then use the tubeless tires, they are thicker so probably better. You don't need sport rims to put tubeless tires, just use the tire and tubes.
u can use normal "finger rims"

with tubeless,but i had enuff with it,i feel more confident & stable riding with sport rims...not just for sporty looks but imho it last longer + with a good tyre measurement some cushion effect will be created thus minimise the stress on the rims....the 1st year with finger rims or jejari i had few broken...not to mention so mafan 2 wash

....then change to sporty with six blade arghhhh ez
latest trend the normal rims blade r more & neon colour
