Hi,

Like to know how big is the different at your ride when you change form stock to 195.60.R15?

I mean how many km can travel per liter....

How about 195.55,R15?

Many thanks... :thumbsup:

Hum...that is intersting :unsure:

Both same size can have 2km/l different.

That is quite alot.

Btw I'm getting close to 14km/l with 75% HW 25% City, 75% alone and 95 grade petrol :cool2:

My tyre pressure front 240 and rear 230....Too high or not enough :blink:

My tyre pressure only 230 front, 210 rear.
Only 12km/l.
Should increase the pressure to get more km??

if i am not wrong, higher tyre pressure equal to better FC but at the expense of ride comfort.

Fc is the least of my concern, the major change is when u take that corner, significant diff between a 185& 195. I feel better with the bigger shoes, and when u need a sharp lane change at some speed 195 makes a diff

Nvr tried sizes beyond that as rim is stock, i'm sticking to 195s for handling sake

was on stock 185 for the last 3 years and able to do 160km when going genting, about 4 months ago changed to 195 hankook, now when travelling at 140km, the steering virbrates liao siao.  Not sure if its the tyres or something wrong else where.
