Nung nagsimulang kumabig GS ko, slightly oblong na yung isang front tire.

Yikes, 35 lang pala ang tire pressure ng GS! Driver namin ang gumagamit at feeling cguro na mataas lang ng konti sa kotse ang tire pressure. Naka-42 na ngayon. WIll have to travel sa even road to check for misalignment.
New tires na GS ko, 2 kumho portrans in front and goodyears sa back.
Thanks for all the input!

Went for gas yesterday. The gas man (di pwedeng boy, matanda na din eh, hehe) could not believe that i said "45 psi po". Clarified twice pa.

It's a bit higher than the 30-35 i'm using but that's the requirement...

In other news, got a 3SMF R Amaron Hi Life yesterday with 21 months warranty.

Let's see how long it lasts, and how it fares in cold Baguio next week.

Was watching Top Gear for about 3 hours yesterday while detailing the interior plastic bits of the GS. Lutong pa din ng cranking.

Hopefully tumagal.

iba takbo pag 45 psi, parang mas listo siya. i normally just put 40 psi on city driving but always put 45 psi on long drives.

san maganda pa-align? napansin ko medyo may kabig sa right. sa zafra pa din ba?

san maganda pa-40,000km PMS outside casa? i have not looked at my manual but i think i read somewhere in this thread palit lahat ng fluids. so change engine lube oil, transmission oil, power steering fluid, brake fluid, differential oil? does anybody know what oil types/brand is used by hyundai for our GS?

45 PSI? Light Truck (LT) tires ba gamit mo or Passenger (P) tires? Standard on Passenger tires is 30-35 PSI.

Over-inflation will give you a small contact patch to the road. This is great for fuel mileage, but horrible for safe control and ride comfort.

Not if you're referring to the GS.

Okay, I just checked the owner's manual of H-1 Grand Starex Van.

Front - 42 PSI
Rear - 51 PSI

What?! Recommended yan? Hmmm.. I know na magkaiba ang stock tires ng GS sa Fort pero hindi naman yata magkakalayo ang kanilang max pressure. Sa Fort - Bridgestone Dueler H/T max PSI lang is 44. So kung ganyan ang recommended, anong max pressure pa yung nasa stock tires?
