I personally like michelin Primacy LC. Super quiet... But kinda expensive. It claims to save fuel, but I dun feel any fuel saving also...

a33 ori is 16inch?

 

[doraemon98]

yes 16

hi, newbie here..

just change my front tyres to yoko cdrive 215 55 16..but dunno the tyres performence..:hmmmm:

 

[doraemon98]

C drive is good also, just got them replaced 6 months ago. Can tahan until around 45kkm... How much u bought?

 

[meazmi]

rm325 inclusive balancing..

the mech offer turanza/potenza (cant remember which 1) at a price rm328/pc..but sadly its 2007 tyre..too old oledy..if not, sure angkat

is it ok to change the ori camber bolt to adj camber bolt?...

 

[weikee]

If camber got no problem why adjust. usually only have problem when using chepo / malaysia apm absorber. the japan import absorber normally don't have camber problem.

 

[meazmi]

really heh?..change oldi
then need to check my absorber lh..tq sifu

the nut in long run may cause more problem. my mechanic face lots of problem with some customer put in the nut. cause it jam after sometime and got to skim it out.

Camber may only have problem if car had a bad knock (accident) or the absorber maybe twisted. if you want to make the tires wider by adjusting chamber for better stability then is another story. by default it won't need to use camber nut.

 

[meazmi]

no wonder i feel not right when the mech told me to change the nut...anyway its my fault, me noob hehe...need to learn more about this mechanical thing..

so, is it better for me to change back to ori nut?...aisehh forgot to take back the ori nut....

 

[weikee]

if its working now, don't change it. since money already spend. bolts usually mechanic have some extra. so no worries.

 

[meazmi]

sifu weikee,

thanks alot for the info. really appreciate it.

 

[seizai]

some "dark" shop sure ask change that nut.. cost only few sen but charge till ten or twenty

 

[meazmi]

maybe it's their business strategy...:hmmmm:
they sell main product with cheaper price but tekan on these small2 thing...in the end total more than rm100

Anyone use Bridgestone GR90 or Michelin Primacy LC before? thinking to change to either one. still in dilema which to change..:stupid:

 

[ctk22]

been using Michelin XM1 for around 50k km on my A32, and still left with 40% tread. I used Flaken Ziex 912 before, only lasted around 30k km, but wet grip is good.

Ppl said european brand tyre last longer cos they caster for heavier vehicle load.

 

[weikee]

i use xm1 before, and now also xm1. wanted to change to cpc2 no stock and my tires are due to replace. the xm1 left 20 - 30% very dangerous already when i drive. and only lasted me around 40kkm +-

My A33 is using Primacy LC... Damn good, quiet but damn expensive. But I am sure u will love it!

For your reference... I bought mine at RM530/pc.
