Time for a new set of Rubber
I was having some curiosity about my car….it’s the tyres….i looked at it closely with the utmost attention….and i found it to wear out and having nearly 0% left to its end of life span. SO….that’s why after meeting with Nik Fahim, i rushed ahead to Bangi at Seksyen 15 for the tyre replacement. That area have some promotions on tyres. Not cheap tyres….but then it came with a competitive price tag and a band name too.
I went to two place to survey, at first premises… My eyeballs attracted to its banner on their promotion of tyres for the size of 195/50/15 at RM115. However, i was not attended to and the stuff looks very busy changing tyres and doing repairs on its clients’ car. Since i think that i don’t deserve that kind of attention and i was not entertained at all, i buzz off to the next premises.
The next premises is just around the corner within 5 blocks from the first that i went. Looking at the banner, the price is slightly higher for the tyre size of 195/55/15 that cost about RM 125 per piece. But the staff is friendly to entertain my queries and the deal went on.
So…here it goes….hehe i mean my pocket starting to get lighter and lighter this month…RM 555 to be exact including labour + alignment + balancing + labour.

Getting the new tyres fitted to the rims

Balancing take places

My previous tyres….damn…the worn part is obvious especially the front tyres. The upper part i you realize is my front tyre.

Togol…Ayam Togol…without the tyres

Now… the Alignment take place…putting this gadget on the rims.

Fuyooohhh….all red….the guy said that if you remain with your current alignment, it will damage your tyres and the worn will turn out faster.

Hehe…Now Ok Al ready…..how they did that huh???

Yess….they just adjust the chamber ….

Precise alignment surely guarantees you a good ride

Damn….the Gen-2 air filter cost you RM38, i can get it from internet much cheaper at RM18. The price is doubled!!!
About the Ride
Yes…the ride is much more firm and you can feel the grip on the road. Handlingwise superp!!….Now this is what i called Gen-2. Heheh
Just another day of my ramblings.
