    if magpapalit lang ng isang gulong, may procedure ba na dapat sundan? kailangan pa ba irotate or watever?

    wer's a good place selling bridgestones? turanza 195/60 R14 yung nasa car now.

    and san ok magpareface ng rotors? napansin ko while checking the tire may mga guhit guhit na yung rotors ko sa harap e.

    thanks

    best to change the tires in pairs and put the new tires in front. Keep the other good tire as a spare for future replacement.

    preferably, change 2 and put them both in front.

    had an idea, though, dunno if it's ok.

    what if you evaluated the 3 remaining tires and looked for the least worn and put that up front with the new one, would that be a problem?

    or, if all the 3 tires are worn too much, then why not put the evenly worn pair up front and the new one at the back.

    ewan ko lang. wadya tink bros?

    preng kimpoy,
    o nga pre. dapat nga yung bago sa front.

    pero, pano naman kung sobrang worn yung 3 (sobra, meaning worn to the extent that there would be a big discrepancy between the new tire and the worn tire, but not so bad yet as to requiring a replacement)? hindi kaya magkaroon ng steering/swerving problem up front coz one tire has excellent traction vs. the other one, so perhaps the car would steer/swerve toward one side? :?:

    kapag siguro sa high speed situation pero kung normal driving condition minimal ( i dont know pre iniisip ko lang as i answer this)

    siguro nga sir mag swerve sa isang side dahil worn out na nga yung isa

    pero bottomline
    dont take chances, lalo na kasama ko family ko, sa tires kasi nakasalalay ang buhay natin di ba,

    Right on, kimpOy! :D

    Actually, the one tire scenario is something i thought of when i remembered what we did for my boss 2 years ago. Dapat talaga, 2 ang palitan para pantay. Pero in her case, since about half a year pa lang ginamit yung isang nasa harap, at yung isa naman e nabangketa nya, isa lang ang pinalitan namin.

    i guess gawin ko na lang spare yung isa. factory spare pa yun e. tapos itrade in ko na lang siguro yung isa.

    btw, i asked around and mga 2k daw yung isang turanza. I'll try calling Freddie's tomorrow.

    salamat po ng marami...

    kimpOy,
    delikado na yun sobra, kung nakalabas na yung ply.

    boybitz,
    good luck. replacing 2 tires is really the recommended solution, but you could try our options on the 1 tire replacement.

    Kung magpapalit ka lang ng isang gulong dahil sa ito ay lat say flat, just use your spare then have the flat tire repaired/vulcanized then ibalik mo ito. Unless your tire is the same size, thread pattern and type as your flat tire then leave it be. The situation is different if your planning to rotate your tires. Most manufacturers recommend rotating your tires every 10k of road use. For new tires always place them in front if your vehicle is FWD and rear if it is RWD. Goodluck.
