2012年9月1日 · Hello all-I own a 2010 Ford Focus (compact sedan) and had to purchase a set of new tires. I went to a retail chain store that I’ve never been to before. The salesman suggests a set of 195/60R15 Trazanos for $304.68. I drive home on a side street about 5 minutes away. Seems fine. The next morning I enter the expressway and there is a slight curve to right when …

2017年1月16日 · As we all know, proper tire pressure is vital for tire life, proper handling of the vehicle, fuel milage, etc. It is also somewhat common knowledge that proper pressure is based on the cold pressure - i.e. when the tires are stabilized at ambient air pressure. In my case, my car is parked in my 60º garage overnight, and outside during the day. The outside temp is forecast to …

2024年12月7日 · Dear car talk, My 2020 Nissan NV3500 calls for 50 psi for the front tires and 80 psi for the back tires. I was recently sold a set of Continental VikingContact 7 winter tires, which have a max pressure of 51 psi. The local dealer gave me the van with the rear tires inflated to 80 psi. When I asked about it, they said it was industry standard to obey the vehicle placard. This …

2023年11月17日 · If tires rate about the same I’ll choose the lower priced tire. I read user reviews, but pay only slight attention to them. IMO the user reviews compare the new tires to the ones they just replaced, and the old tires are typically at the end of life. They are of course louder, ride poorly, and have worse wet handling than the new tires.

2009年10月28日 · Sure enough, the toe of the front tires was way off. My mechanic realigned it and now it drives straight as an arrow. My mechanic believes that the new tires changed the stance of the car and therefore the alignment readings. This doesn’t make sense to me but all he did was adjust the toe and the car drives perfect again.

2024年12月4日 · Yellow highlighted part is definitely the outside. There are no markings idicating which side out. I was shopping for winter tires for my car and compared all available tires and to my suprise, QuaTrac had better consumer reviews …

2011年9月12日 · I went out to check/adjust the tire pressure on my 1997 Saturn wagon today. The car has 4 new Sumitomo HTR A/S P01 tires. I checked the sidewall and found that the max pressure for these tires is 51 PSI. The manufacture recommended pressure on the door tag is 32 PSI for the front and 28 PSI for the rear. I also checked the tires on our “new” 2010 Pontiac …

I have a RAV4 2015 and wife Kia Optima 2016. I have a schwinn bike pump in each trunk to fill tires (especially if on the road). The pump works on my RAV no problem. Last tire change was in 2021. The optima had 7 yr tires on the back so I got new ones in july 2024. Now I cannot use either bike pump where I lock the nozzle onto the stem. I can hold the nozzle in 1 hand and …

2025年1月10日 · On my 2014 Ford Taurus, I finally changed out my inner and outer tie rods on both sides of my car. After changing the rods, I went and got two used tires as both barely had any thread left. Since I got that new tire my car has been acting funny. It’s hard to explain but the car acts like its swaying back and forth. It’s like the passenger-side tire has a mind of its own …

2024年11月6日 · Hi everyone, I have a 2015 Subaru Legacy. I took it to the dealer for a routine tire rotation, and now there’s a cyclical whump-whump noise when I drive. It’s loudest at lower speeds( below 35), but I can hear it when going faster. I took it back to the dealer right away, and they said they re-rotated the tires. I still hear the noise, and it’s louder than before. The dealer …
