Hi rayace168,

$40 lifetime applies to the lifetime of the current set of tyres. In theory, that means the subscription will expire for that tyre once it is replaced. Upon purchase, Stamford will stick a Nitrogen sticker on each rim. The customer can top up Nitrogen at any of the stamford outlets. Do note that charges may differ at different outlets.

Alan,

In my last car, I had free nitrogen top up when I replaced my tyres.

Those 4 tyres never needed to top up air during its 4 yr lifespan.

4 years and you never topped up? Did you check the pressure?

I checked the tyre pressure, and it never dropped below 220 KPa.

Tyre was changed at Comfort Delgro.

I changed abt 1 yr ago Bridgestone GR80...... Immediate diff is the quietness and braking quite ok ...the stock tyres are really noisy and uncomfortable to me.

My company car(toyota picnic) came fitted with Michelin Primacy.So far its smooth, quiet and the grip is pretty good. But then the car has only travelled 3000+km, so not sure how the tyre will be once it reached 20000+km onwards.

Hi just a bit sidetrack...

I saw on my stock tyre that the KPA is 300 (max) or PSI 44..

Not sure if it is okay to pump around..KPA 290 or PSI 40?

Any views please?

your tyre will be too hard & uneven wear & tear..

for me, ideally is F240; R230 when tyre is cold. but still up to individual.

290KPa will give you an exceptionally bumpy ride and minimal grip.

240KPa is the safe extreme.

I'm on that profile, what do you mean wise or not? Grip? Bumpiness?
