Secondhand Car Needs a New Set of Tyres ASAP

[guessmynames]

Hi guys, recently picked up at 2010 Honda Civic for a decent price about 3 weeks ago. The car runs fine and everything except I notice how much grip it lacks when it's raining (KL has been raining alot recently ) I have not much knowledge on tyres but I took a look closely at the tyres and I noticed that it is quite bald. Even have a few bald patches. I think the previous owner sand papered his tyres, seriously. Thank goodness I never pushed the car much prior to the rain.

Anyone with Civic or something similar would tell me what tyres are your car running on and is it running well? Or just any idea what kind of tyres would be best for a 2010 Honda Civic.

Hahaha maybe the previous owner did not EXACTLY sand his tyres, but it sure looked like it. Hahaha.

The size is 16 wor. But I think if wanna change, better change the whole thing. Once and for all.

It depends on your budget, are u changing the 2 front/ 2 rear tyres or all 4?
going for 2nd hand right? wat size u require?

 

[guessmynames]

No no. The car is secondhand. I'm going to get a new set of tyres. Change all 4 better. Like very weird having 2 new tyres and 2 old tyres. I think going for 17" though. Big rims look fiercer

So far you use 2 in front how u feel? According to SC, he say is good. Also since Vr2turbo accept to change the tyre to SC's car haha! Traction AA with threadwear 400 wor I read. The specs look good to me la.

If u plan to change rims then 17" is not an issue. Try find see got Rims+Tyres set. If not u can try go Klang Kedai Papan. Tyres known as cheap there.

Or u can go to Hup Shun at Sunway. Seems cheap too. Just be extra careful with the workers only haha!

Danz you really budak kaya. Brake pads cost that much. The 6pots brake you install it or OEM? I love grippy brake. Don't too noisy is acceptable and currently i using IMP platinum, abit noisy during cold bite, "gok gok" sound during full stop.

PS: my pads baru RM16x (huhuhu)
