Madarmour Neutral Newbie January 30, 2002 Share January 30, 2002 Get the one with the rubber tube. It's much easier to use. I'm using Blue Point from Snap-On. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torquelover Neutral Newbie February 1, 2002 Share February 1, 2002 My manual recommends 2.4Bar for the front and 2.3Bar for the back (but these figures are for 14" tyres) I have upgraded my tyres to 15" (195/55), do I stick to the same pressure recommendation as the 14"?

Sky8807 1st Gear February 1, 2002 Share February 1, 2002 IMO u can use the recommended pressure even though you have change the tyre size. Using a lower profile tyre means there is less flexing of the tyre. The handling and cornering is improved but the ride is a little harsh and bumpy at times. If you find the pressure low and don't mind that bumpy ride you can raise 1 to 1.5 bars up. The manufacturer recommend the pressure at a compromise of ride and handling. Better handling increase the pressure, and better or more comfortable ride the reverse apply. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky8807 1st Gear February 1, 2002 Share February 1, 2002 That 's cheap. Thought of getting one like this also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbobrick Neutral Newbie February 1, 2002 Share February 1, 2002 Do note also if U're carrying more load or going high speeds >160kmh, U should consider adding 0.2-0.3bar more pressure into all four tires from the recommended one. I just retained my preferred pressure setting after upgrading from 205/50R16 to 215/45R17 and it has been just fine so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky8807 1st Gear February 1, 2002 Share February 1, 2002 Oops correction. --------------------- If you find the pressure low and don't mind that bumpy ride you can raise 1 to 1.5 bars up. The manufacturer recommend the pressure at a compromise of ride and handling. Better handling increase the pressure, and better or more comfortable ride the reverse apply. ---------------------- Increase shld be 0.1 to 0.2 bar. (1.5 to 3 psi) Slip of the mind.

Madarmour Neutral Newbie February 2, 2002 Share February 2, 2002 You mean it's cheap? I thought the Stethogauge is cheap! Anyway the Blue Point gauge is very solidly built. Looks like it will last a lifetime! I have full confidence in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky8807 1st Gear February 2, 2002 Share February 2, 2002 I mean the Stethogauge is cheap. Agree with u it is a solidly build product. Did I say some other thing cheap? blur blur leh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madarmour Neutral Newbie February 2, 2002 Share February 2, 2002 (edited) Sorry bro, wrong wavelength! OK, for the record, Stethogauge (with extension tube) - $19 -----> cheap! Blue Point - $40 -----> not so cheap! Edited February 2, 2002 by Mikeckchong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky8807 1st Gear February 2, 2002 Share February 2, 2002 Oh I see, Thanks for clarification. IMO, Blue point price is reasonable leh, sold by snap on right and do they give lifetime warranty too for the gauge. For the quality $40 is OK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallgasghost Neutral Newbie March 6, 2002 Share March 6, 2002 Does increasing the tyre pressure make less tyre noise? Seems to me that when I whack 230 into my tyres it is quieter... whack 220 a little more noise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanray Neutral Newbie March 7, 2002 Share March 7, 2002 Hmmm anyone driving an honda esi with 15' rims??? What is the advised pressure for the front and rear tyres??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huggable Clutched September 28, 2003 Share September 28, 2003 Huggable was at Mustafa Centre, and the Stethogauge cost only S$12.90, so he quickly grabbed one.
