for me...been sticking to 36psi...its not that bumpy la...more concern about the road condition in kl...and hope my rims wont bengkok !

say, anyone has any feedback with their tires performance during the rain?

How to judge performance during rain? .. I usually drove around 130 in wet .. but then don't meet "death pools" else die ...

36psi = 250kpa ??

Mine now at 290 / 260 ... i think i like it stiff ...

I've only driven 90-100 during the rain...steady and safe...but with my prev jap ride...I wouldnt drive >80 for sure...dont feel safe la...car is light...tyre is tiny lol

ya 36psi = 250kpa...that's the minimum recommended pressure for our csc3...
plan to do tire swap, balancing, alignment every 10k mileage...to make sure wear and tear are even on each one...hope it will last 40k before needing to change new one...

Seriously, I'm reaching 10k and i dun think the CSC3 is bumpy, rather firm but that is expected for a sports tyre. It is still not that crashy as per my latio (running on 15") which i only drove 90 in the wet.

hang on guys, i'm quite blur on the bar unit. our tyre pressure as shown by the door jam is 25 bar. when i check on the conversion, its equivalent to 362psi or 2500kPa, is this correct? can't remember the common unit they use on the air pump at petrol station

I think you miss the "." -> it is 2.5bar = 250kpa

[hah]

I think you miss the "." -> it is 2.5bar = 250kpa

haha .... its that so?? else i wud hav pump my tyre like a balloon. i'll check again. cheers!

bro, was behind you again today ard 6.10pm along bukit gambier rd too bad i'm not driving my lion tho.

anyway, on tyre pressure, rear should be more then front or the other way round? and what's the recommended "difference"?

thanks.

haha .. didn't see you or else would have honk. Front is always more than rear .. since FF ... heavy engine upfront. 280kpa front, 250kpa rear.

Hi guys,

Undeniably this beautiful lion is a damn powerful car, but i believe most bro have some issue with the bumpy-ness mainly due to the 17" wheel with low profile.

I got some great input from a few bros here. Maybe we can discuss on what can we do to further improve this, so we will have a really perfect car Good for driver and also for passenger.

1. Change tyre to Good Year F1 Asymmetric. (bro sam81 already done it and see improvement)
2. Inflate tyre pressure to 235-240 region (sharing from bro autopug)
3. ....change to 16"? but prefer to stick with 17", looks nicer with the car

I am on 2.5 bar (38psi)front and back..so far its comfortable enough. I can tell you the 308 is way more comfortable than the GTi on similar sized tyres.

when taking delivery of my thp the tires were at 300kpa i think.
went straight to pirelli glenmarie, did alignment and the mech lowered pressure to 240kpa.

he said "300kpa too high, your car will melompat2, stick to 230kpa driving solo or 240kpa driving full occupant"
