GR80 is a good tyre.  ;D

So you passed your remaining 3 good tyres to the tyre shop?

It's only 12 mth old, should have lots of thread left. The tyre shop will probably sell them as 2nd hand tyres for $25 each.

Hi gui ge

I disagree.
Is no choice lah, coz no time lah. U know, rush hour now lah.

Anyway, went to Htyre (Htyre.com.sg) at Bendemeer road during lunch time.
The screw spoil the tyre and cannot mend, bcoz it is kena at the 'side' of the tyre.
So, I have changed to GR80, all the 4 pcs at S$110 per piece. Total S$440 + 7% GST = S$470.80 :(

Huh :( Tyre = Tire man....

Iagree, life isn't that tough...there's tougher ones out there....u r in a rat race, that's all.

iagree, sgd470.80 compare to your life which weigh better? what can u disagree upon?

You can check tyre production date at tyre sidewall.

Look out for the 4 digit no.

Hi AnnLeong

The feeling of the new tyres are good, compare to the previous Stock Toyo.
Quieter and good.
Heng i didnt chg my Stock Tyres when i bought the car otherwise at 30000km i chg to new tyres then siong leh....

I never know where it was made from. And, I don't know how to see the tyres.
I just change & pay & go. That's all. :(

Hi clarence buddy,

Oh, i will check tonight.
If they give me old production tyres at S$110/= GR80, i am going to shoot them down :) If so, do lend me your hands.

Regards.

Hi all

After changing to GR-80 (all the 4 biji):

1) Better driving pleasure
2) FC improve a little bit
3) Feel the ride is 'taller' abit? Why?

But the CVT pick up is still the same, so weak at pick-up. This is the sideback of CVT, cannot cheong when start to accelerate.... We may kena bully sometimes if there are some impatience drivers drive behind us.

Regards.

Rm250 Thai GR80 vs S$110 Japan GR80. Why go KL to change it? My relative from Malaysia even change their tyre in Singapore when they came for visit, better quality at almost the same price.
