I've 2 pcs on rear 225/45/17 bought late 2020 apparently it's bulging. Discovered this when I wanted to do balancing as steering felt a little shaky. Was informed by tyre shop no point do balancing as tyre is bulging and suggested to claim fro seller since most tires are with 5 yrs warranty. Any experience claiming such? What's the process? BTW these are Nexus Nfera tyres

Guys pls recommend me tyres for above. Prefer quiet, comfortable and good grip as I am on the road most of the time due to the nature of my work. No budget on the price as tyre change is covered by company. |

Currently using Michellin PS4, but need to change since the sides bald already. I travel every weekend from Kuantan tu Putrajaya and vice versa, and my style of driving is quite aggresive. Should i remain with PS4 or any other brand / model you all would recommend? |

QUOTE(GuyzNexDoor @ Jun 18 2022, 09:19 AM) 215/55/r17 Hey,Currently using Michellin PS4, but need to change since the sides bald already. I travel every weekend from Kuantan tu Putrajaya and vice versa, and my style of driving is quite aggresive. Should i remain with PS4 or any other brand / model you all would recommend? With 215/55R17 you have tons of choice. From my price table I got the following options. Kumho Ecsta PS31 215/55R17 313 Toyo Nano Energy NE03 215/55R17 352 Goodyear EfficientGrip 215/55R17 370 Continental UC6 215/55R17 400 Continental Max Contact 6 215/55R17 430 Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 215/55R17 440 Goodyear Eagle F1 Sport 215/55R17 441 Michelin Primacy 4st 215/55R17 528 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 215/55R17 565 From what you said, I deduce that your main requirements are mileage and handling? I would recommend Primacy 4st due to its higher UTQG treadwear rating (340 vs 320-PS4) and better overall performance You can check out the head to head comparison here GuyzNexDoor liked this post

QUOTE(jepakazoid_82 @ Jun 19 2022, 09:15 PM) Hi guys, According to tyre manufacturers yes, it's recommended for replacement.Not sure what happened. Wife drove my car and found out my few months old xm2 plus got scratched and peeled at sidewall here. How? Need to change ah? This tyre and rim wheel runs over a curb. Michelin 6 year warranty likely not applicable here. |

I'd no such experience. This post has been edited by zeng: Jun 22 2022, 09:52 AM |

Town and residential area should be safer if I may guess. |

QUOTE(zeng @ Jun 22 2022, 09:19 PM) It's good to know you have gone over a year plus with a longer side bulge. 110km/h is so normal speed for me when driving around klang valley, after the tyre damaged, i still go 120-140km/h on kesas and 170km/h on karak with that tyres, 160+km/h on sepang circuit long straightOn highway, did you dare to go over 110 km/hr with the side bulge? Town and residential area should be safer if I may guess. i can wear out a treadwear 320 tyres in just 2 years with rotation done, that's less than 30k mileage, how extreme you think i torture the tyres? and it still hasn't failed because of sidewall damaged it is just a slightly deeper surface scratch, sidewall is not that weak zeng liked this post

QUOTE(jepakazoid_82 @ Jun 19 2022, 10:13 PM) You changed? No need la... only recommended to change if sidewall bulging. In your case, just lose a small chunk of rubber. It does not affect anything. What really holds the integrity of a tyre is the wire mesh cooked into the tyre construction. That's why it is recommended to change when sidewall bulging because the wire mesh inside already compromised. Not sure just bended or snapped thus advisable to replace. |
