When Do You Replace Tires?

kahit kasi i-rotate mo yung gulong mo every given mileage (I practice 10K kms), napansin ko na di pa rin pantay pantay yung pudpod nung 4 na gulong. ako honestly 2 lang din plano kong palitan, kaso nag 40% off si bridgestone kaya pinilit ko ng 4 ang palitan... tsaka syempre approved ni misis kaya go agad ako.

Same here. Masakit sa bulsa, pero okay na rin, isang bagsakan na lang.

Most experts say replace the rears before the fronts because stability during a blowout is largely dependent on the rear and it's much harder to control the rear if that's where the blowout is.

I still change the fronts first instead of the rears because the only time I don't change the rears at the same time is if they still have plenty of tread left and are still in good condition.

Also, the tires take forever to scrub in at the rear. Mainipin at matigas din kasi ulo ko hehe

Which is more dangerous, bursting a front tire or the rear one? - Updated - Quora

Ok... Sensya na. I've read your links and they are right...

Then I realized na depende yan sa experience and skill ng driver.

So sa mga wala pang experience masabugan ng gulong... Please follow the expert's advice.

I have my reasons based on personal experience/personal skill kung bakit sa harap ko linalagay new tires ko, and sa likod yung alanganin na.

Here's a sample of worn tires (hindi pa nga super pudpod yan) suddenly oversteering on a damp road:

The usual response of drivers when their car loses control is to stomp on the brakes. If I did that, the car would've continued to oversteer and I could've spun and hit the motorcycle driver on the other side of the road.

That's on a FWD car, if you have a RWD like a pickup or PPV, the propensity to oversteer is higher. My officemate before suffered the same conditions but wasn't as fortunate - his car oversteered, he overcorrected, hit a side rail, and then his car turned turtle and landed on the other side of the road. Thankfully he was okay but his car was totalled.

In comparison, understeering is easier to correct by simply letting go of the gas pedal and waiting for the car to regain its traction.

Afaik, newer tires should be placed in the rear to prevent fish tailing.
To make your tires last longer, rotate them every 10k km and include the spare.

The tire rotation I do is when I see uneven wear, nilalagay ko yung hindi pa pudpod duon sa pudpod so maghahabulan sila, so palit ako ng apat pag super pudpod na lahat.

My Kumhos are now at 35,000 km travelled and I'll probably replace them in the next 2 months. Eyeing the GT SX2 or Yoko Advan V701 - I want something grippy, I need something that lasts long.

Bro, i jusr switchef to dunlop LM704s and they are very grippy.

This may sound stupid but i tried sliding on a wet rooftop parking lot kasi dumudulas daw according sa reviews. So far wala naman.
