No, do not simply change tire size. Your original rim width is design to take on the 175 width, if you up size wider just think your small feet running with a bigger shoe size what do you think when going high speed or enter corners with the bigger shoe? Besides that, with fuel subsidies going off soon, 185 wider tires also will impact fuel consumption in long run. Only if you change sport rim together with the correct width and lighter weight only can see the benefits, if not the cons is more compare to pro in long run. A lot of local made tire brands also got carry the size, Toyo CR1 is one of it. Just google search Toyo original website and ask for nearest dealer to order/book. https://www.toyotires.com.my/our-products/proxes-cr1/175/60/R15 is one of the available size This post has been edited by littlefire: Mar 18 2025, 05:10 PM |

QUOTE(faruko @ Mar 19 2025, 02:01 AM) Hmm... I see... I guess it make sense that you can't simply just change the size. I've read some reviews from some sifu's on this forum that the Toyo CR1 has some pretty mixed results. Some say it's pretty good for the price but some say wet braking feels scary? Not very sure about this I am using it on my Perodua Kelisa, no issue. My sisters husband also using it on it's Honda City no complain also. If you know the tire limit and dont treat it as a racing tire it will serve well, CR1 is consider as normal budget touring tire which is more towards comfort base. |

Most my rides tire are at least 8~10 years OTR already also no issue. As per feedback, most tires can well last around 10 years if no serious wear or cracks.

QUOTE(autodriver @ Apr 4 2025, 04:03 PM) Tire basically expired after 5 years after installation. The tire may still looks good but the tyre lost grip after 5 years put into the car. Go and try hit the brake hard on wet surface with 5 years old tyre vs tyre age of 2, you can clearly feel the different. The rubber lost it elasticity Tyre is the only component of the vehicle contact to the ground directly. You may find some article to say tire can use up to 10 years. If a new tyre stored properly without use and on 5th years putting into a vehicle then generally it can be used almost 10 years from the date of tyre being produced. If the tyre being install into vehicle then the tyre is not recommend to use more than 5 years. Tire shop would be great to have customer like you or you are either tire brand spoke person. In regards of wet surface braking performance, if you so scare about it just go buy Michelin as they claim performance only drop very less even after many years on the road FYI, the wet performance is not about the tire age but tire wear https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/c...s-tires.302436/Consumer report got do experiment, it is the tire tread thickness which impact the most. |
