Hi, Thinking of changing to a set of non-directional tyres for an even tire-wear, as my car is set to negative camber. Any bro here knows of any non-directional tyres that have decent wet & dry grip? I don't really care much about noise and comfort.. Thanks :)

Hi all, What are the pros and cons of these 2? I read from wikipedia that: "An asymmetric tire may refer to a passenger car radial tire in which asymmetric structure stabilizing belts are built. Generally the stabilizing belts give a self-aligning torque when a motor vehicle is running straight ahead as well as when it is cornering. However, the sidewalls of the radial tire are so flexible that there will be a delay in the lateral reaction between the tread of the tire and the rim of its wheel as the vehicle is being steered positively. The lateral force will be transmitted from the front wheel to the rear of the vehicle, which will tend to be steered off course. Whereas the asymmetric belts bring a gradual change in the lateral displacement of the tire tread corresponding to the rim while the cornering load grows. The progressive change will harden the sidewalls to produce an immediate response to steering, which results in safer driving." So Asymmetric tyre is more superior in term of safety and concerning? Regards,

Many of the new models of the better brands like Michelin, Bridgestone, Pirelli now comes in asymetical patterns. I am looking for a mid-range 19" UHP tyre with symetrical uni-directional patterns (like GY F1 GSD3) but realised that there are very limited choices. Anyone has any suggestions/recommendations for my requirements?

What is the effect of directional tyres if mounted opposite way? Say for general running about town/city. Will the tyres wear faster or be damaged? Any comments?

hi wanna find out, if you're using directional tyres, do you swop left/right when doing tyre rotation? i.e. remove tyres from rim and swop. So far the 2 places i've been, they just swop front and back, tells me "cannot" switch left/right (duh...), charges about $20 to $25. Should it cost more if I ask to swop left/right? Typically how much more and where recommended? Prefer east side (Sengkang/Tampines/Loyang). i'm running on 17", come tyre change it burns a hole in my pocket Thanks

Hi, Just wanna check whether Michelin Pilot Preceda tyres are directional? As it do the work in a certain direction. Noticed the tyres threads on my car pointing to different directions on both the left and right on the car. Is this normal? Thanks
