What is the correct pressure for 195/50/15 tires? I would usually pump 200, but I notice that my tires are flat, tires eat one side already. Sigh ..
 
how much is ur rim dimension? the air pressure i tink is written on the tyres.

Just wondering how much does an alignment, cambering work cost at YS Khong...anybody knows?
 
hahaha...rite...diff price for diff cars...for protons, allignment+camber RM90, for continentals its about 110 i think...but they're r good...very friendly n knowledgeable
 
I normally go for 235KPa all around for my 185/6014. Realised the tires is graining quicker a lot at the sidewalls so i'm happy with 235KPa but also because i'm always carrying people on board so to compensate the extra weight, i normally put in abit more air.

Could also be the alignment, but I just don't like seeing all my tires flat. I don't have chamber screws, didn't fix.

Care to explain what is pillowball? :D
 
pillowball mount is the suspension mounting in which u can adjust the degree (vertically) in which the damper sits in ur suspension system...wut car r u driving? if its proton or any other...there should be a way to adjust camber setting...if not how meh...hehehe...just go there (yskhong) they know wut to do
 
In my experience, some petrol stations have faulty air pump meters with inaccurate reading. So, you may think you pumped in 32psi, when in actuality you might only be getting 28psi.

It is recommended to invest in a reliable air pressure gauge.

totally agree!!! coz tyre pressure is one of the important dependence when it comes to thread wear...normally once in a while i'll go to workshop so they fill in n measure the pressure using a gauge...reccomended...coz to buy a reliable gauge cost bout 40 bucks...those cheap 5 bucks wont do
 
Hmmm my case in 195/50/15 i pump 230 front...205 rear...bcs rear become botak liao...worry pressure too big then bocor...
