Hi, together, last summer I hit a nail in one of my summer tyres (255/30 R19 Goodyear Asymmetric 2). It only struck me when changing to the winter bikes. Of course, it has to be a new tire now. After searching through diverese forums, the majority opinion in such a case is for exchanging both tyres directly on one axle. However, the described tires in the forums were usually already older anyway, which makes the decision of course easy I have now caught it with relatively new tires. Purchased 04/2014 about 10,000km (wearing arm / many motorway kilometers) about 1 – 1.5 mm consumed Is of course annoying enough to replace such a new tire. And a 2nd, even good tires to exchange all the more. Costs would be 2 pieces incl. assembly about 400 EUR. Now the question is: How “wrong” is it if one would only exchange a tire? Do you remember this very much when driving behavior? What would you do?

Hello, I’m looking for winter tyres and I need tyres of the format 225/55 R16 99W XL. MB E220 T , 212K (first addition 28.09.11) (2.1 1313) (2.2 BHK) But I find only “V” or only summer tyres. Do I do something wrong? Can I drive other versions too? Thanks for the help Rick

@ all Moin, I plan to change to GJR soon (autumn). However, I’m still unsure which manufacturer to choose. It’s just that it’s supposed to be a brand tire. It’s therefore only Goodyear and Michelin in the selection. One more winter- the other more summer tires. I’ve been informed about the pros and cons. What’s hard to find is something about the possibility of saw tooth formation. My current summer tire (Michelin Primacy HP) is quite loud by I would therefore be very grateful for experience in this respect. Tyre size is: 205/55 R 16 Weight index 91 Vmax-Index T (minimum requirement). Vehicle is a Ford C-Max, 1.6 l with 88kW, vehicle is mainly operated only with 2 persons and little charge. In addition to a certain wear resistance, the formation of possible saw teeth and associated noises are also decisive for the purchase. ue mich auf Zuschriften. Greetings dudel Addendum: Air pressure currently at 2.7 bar all around. I have already received some information about the Michelin CC, there are still some missing about the Goodyear.

Hello! I looked at the rear tyres of her Citroën C3 (1.4) year 2003 for a friend. She has been driving winter tyres on the rear axle since about 2011. The tyres are loud when driving (“wummering” and seem to run round. In my opinion, there is clearly saw tooth formation here. In addition, it makes me stutzig that the tyres are round and some profile blocks are significantly lower than others. I wonder if it could be that There are damage to both tyres inside the carcass. No further damage is visible on the outside. Is there a safety risk with the tyres or can you drive with it for a few months if no further damage is seen and the profile depth is sufficient? With photos and a video. I am happy about many, detailed comments and thank you for your assessment!

Hello, have ordered me online via a website complete wheels. These came today and I was not enthusiastic. It is about Dotz Revvo gunmetal, which are ex factory grey-black. Unfortunately all rims on the inner outer edges have like grinding marks. Some also scratches or notches where the silver of the rim gets through. I wrote an email and sent photos. Then I got an answer that the quality claim (so or so similar) to the inside pages not so much is high and such traces are created by the manufacturing process e.g. by conveyor belts of the rim manufacturer. Since this is normal the goods would have gone through the quality control. Is that really so? On the inside of the rims were just 2 cardboards and you can see on every cardboard circle tracks where probably the cardboard has sanded off the paint. now I don’t know what to do with this mail and whether this statement is “right” and I have to accept the goods like this. I don’t imagine the rim in the load also look like this

What experience do you have with GOODRIDE RP28. Or equivalent tyres? I have just gained positive experience with the winter tire of Goodride. Wear after 9000km Ca 2Mm, residual profile: 6Mm. Vehicle weight: 1550kg/ 116PS 280Nm 205/60/16 Size.

Hello together, I know there’s a thread next door to BILLIGEN (!) tyre dealers. Now I don’t want to be cheap, but rather ECONOMIC tyre dealers. Reifen.com seems to be very cheap, but I read rather mixed experiences about this tyre dealer. Concretely I want a brand product à la Continental, Dunlop, Michelin, Pirelli etc., but at a cheap and fair price. And above all also real new product from the current year (DOT), not tires that according to the law are considered new, but already a few years at the dealer. Where do you get such a thing? Where do you buy your tires? Thanks already!

Hello together, yesterday I thought to myself, I wash my new (by the way also my first) car for the first time Now was or is still on the tire a somewhat unsightly stain, which I wanted to get away with the strong water jet of a high pressure cleaner in the SB washbox. I think that I sprayed for good six or seven seconds on the stain water with the high pressure cleaner. The stain then unfortunately did not go away, so I stopped and one day after I did read on the internet that you can never spray the tire with the high-pressure cleaner, that is very bad and dangerous!!! After that I drove 15 km also on the highway and nothing exploded. Now you can imagine that I am a bit worried So one day after that I got to the car and looked at all the tires with the flashlight. The high-pressure cleaner looks like the other three, look neither bubbles nor cracks. is an 18″ Dunlop Sport Maxx and only two months old. What do you think, half as bad or like to replace the tire?

Hello, my summer tyres will probably have it behind them in autumn at the latest, so I’m already looking for cheap and still usable replacement in size 205/60 R16 92V. Currently SAVA, Kumho and Hankook are in the race ahead, because China hard rubber tires don’t get me to the car. When I was with my daughter’s car because of TÜV and AU at a free workshop the master told me about his new “house brand” called Torque. For my size it would be there nn probably the model TQ021. Since I had never heard of this company I Googled a little and found out that these tires are “Made in Great Britain” and in the self-promotion as pretended high-tech-operation quite strongly “put on the cream”. Well that’s what Sailun, Roadstone and other cheap homes do, so I looked for concrete test results. I found only a tire test of the “Autozeitung” and also only for a winter tire of this brand. D However, the test result was far from convincing. Since the British have never had a semi-useable winter tire in the history of tyre baking, but actually – who wonders – can build quite rain-proof summer tires, I would be interested to know if anyone already has experience in this regard. Whether I would actually buy this tire is once put aside, but it is always nice to have a few alternatives in the portfolio. Wa not even a “British”, at SAVA in Slovenia you have also learned to produce quality. Greetings Reimund

Hello together, I have been driving for 3 years an a3 8l 1.8t bj 2002 193tkm. The car is series, no lowering or other tuning. For 2 years I live deep in the Black Forest, accordingly the roads are curvy, straight there is hardly. If the engine is warm I drive accordingly, the curves I drive at the grip limit, accordingly high is also the load for the tires. It’s just like driving permanent circuit, in the week ~400km. A set of front tyres lasts 6 months, then sin d she blank (first inside). Profile depth: left outside 3mm 2mm 1mm inside right inside 0mm 2mm 4mm outside My tyre dealer tells me every time the track is misplaced and that it cannot come from the way of driving. However, the tyre dealer is not in the Black Forest, but in the Rhine plain and has to do with cars that are loaded differently. My correct workshop in the Black Forest, however, has never pointed out to me that what could be misplaced, it comes as only the hint s that the profile depth is too low. A rough exit is given, the car pulls neither to the right nor to the left. Can such a wear picture come from the way of driving or should I really have an axle measurement carried out ? Greeting, Nils
