Anyone having front wheels balancing problem where the front wheels became


/ -- \ <-- Front Wheels.


|----| <-- Rear Wheels.


The mechanic told me to install two camber nuts to fix them. RM55 per wheel.

And do you guys do alignments and balancing in tyre shops other than Perodua Service Centre? May I know how much they charge normally and do they impose Government and Service Tax?

Do we need chamber nuts for the back tyres?

Sweat, today I installed 2 chamber nuts (RM55 x 2), Wheels Alignments, and Balancing at RM 150. Sweat... Why they make money like that... Really no ethics...

laugh.gif i know what u mean ler...

yes the price is a lil on the expensive side.... but i wouldnt go to the point of saying they have no ethics man..... mainly because ive seen worse.

put it this way....

55*2 = 110
alignment = rm25
balancing (rm5*4) = 20

total RM155.

considering u got RM5 discount its ok mah.... BUT i have to say the camber nuts are a lil expensive... they usually dont cost more than RM50.

so again...a lil expensive...but not up to being no ethics

Haha... Different people different view... Anyway... I am already being cheated... Should have done some homework...
And it is actually RM6 per tyre... And I am not as rich as some others out there... Every RM1 counts for me... Maybe you got more money to spend, but not me...


And about the rear absorber, as I am always carrying people behind, so the rear absorber is kinda "soft" now. Any recommendations to raise the back a little bit? Some of my friends say add some material(rubber?)?
