Paps ,halos wala ng solusyon diyan at delikado hindi mo masabi aksidente . Papalitan mo na lang kung malaki . Kasi iyong mahiwaan ka lang sa gilid ng goma hindi na ma repair sa mga vulcanizing shop dahil ito pinakamalambot na parti ng goma sa gilid at problema kahit factory defect ayaw naman palitan ng mga authorized distibutor. Maraming ganyan ang nagiging problema sa gulong . Iyong tire pressure nakalagay naman sa goma iyan tignan mo na lang.

wala na. kelangan na palitan. delikado at pangit sa paningin. nagkabukol din Federal 595 ko for vios. eto matindi, 3 months pa lang siya samen at 95% nlex driven pa. bili ka na lang bago sir if di mo na matiis ang pinakamamahal mo.

in my case naman, under warranty pa, so by next week sana, makuha namen yung replacement, but thankful na din kase a temporary service tire was lend to us by the shop.

add ko lang about sa tire pressure:

may naka indicate sa gilid ng gulong ang maximum pressure. if your maximum psi is 40psi less 10% . 36 will be your rightful psi. since naka 40series kang gulong, 36psi will do.

ako naka 217/45r17, i have 35psi nitrogen. since 40psi ang max ng tires ko

Too much pressure IMHO. When I was riding on 225/45/17 tires, I set my tire pressure at around 33psi only.

i agree on that however, it is the optimal pressure when ride comfort, fuel efficiency and stable sidewall(on corners) meets each other. i put 32 down psi on it, its too heavy, slow on acceleration and decrease my FC. i followed the max psi minus 10% procedure, and its a too stiff ride and lacks of impact absorbing capabilities. put 35psi and its like riding on my stock shoes(185/70r14) regardless of comfortability issues hehe

tagal ko din hinuli yung kiliti ng gulong ko.

and kaya kailangan ko na medyo matigas is because, i have westlake tires, and they are very very very awful tires specially on safety issues when under inflated. libre kase kaya kinuha ko

OT: musta na civic mu sir?

**edison28** · September 21st, 2009 02:31 AM

Salamat mga sir.

bibili nalang tlga ako ng bago. mahirap nang maputukan ng gulong. btw, ok lang po ba isa lang bilin ko tapos ilipat ko nlang sa likod ung isa? ung isa sa harap kasi ang may bukol. at may nabibili po bang 17inch rims na pang spare lang?hehe mejo kinakabahan kasi ako pag nasa daan knowing na iba tire size ng spare ko..

As long as the overall diameter is the same size, it doesn't matter if you have a 14 inch or a 15 inch spare.

You can get tall safety spares at Banawe, but I don't know if they have 17" safety spares in your lug count... considering your tire size, I presume you're driving a 90's compact japanese car with a 4-lug hub.

The solution to "bukol"? Get smaller mags and bigger tires, or drive reaaaaaaally slowly over potholes...

Kalimitan e factory defect ang cause ng bukol sa goma . . . especially if under warranty pa. In this case, better bring it back where you bought it para mapalitan. IMHO, your tire's case is a closed one, can't do anything about it. It's too dangerous to use it further.

I'm driving a 2003 japanese car hehe.. you're right. im now considering going back to 15s or getting 16s. i think i made a mistake in buying 17s

the ride is bumpy and i cannot bring it home to our province without worrying too much about the rims. anyway, thanks for the info
