i guess they are professional enough right?
btw another shocking thing i found out, the usual price of LC is around 550 - 570,
but i got mine less than 500. I think that might be one of the reason??

When too many workers sometimes hard to control..... smile_blackeye.gif

well price sometimes is hard to say, but what is the Manufactured date???

Pricing is one thing we don't understand either, especially current dated tyres and yet selling cheap.... smile_shock.gif

maybe the buy in bulk lo no other way already i think smile.gif
according to my fren some spare part shop dare to take in air-filters in very huge quantity... like 1 example given to me, 1 shop dare to take in 200 Scania Lorry filters at once and the boss ask my fren: "this quantity is quite small can we work on a long term and sum next time???"
haha things is beyond ur imagination sometimes...

the primacy lc is really a comfort tires....going slow speed is allright..but once 150km above..the handling of the car like not stable and feel like swaying/wobble compare im using PP2 last time even up to 180km..still feeling planted.....cornering the body roll quite ok......going over humps feels smooth....and quiet on most of the road but rough roads still have sounds but the tire noise much lower.....

Hi bro kiddy. u will feel this From PP2 to LC. 2 diff category. all tires will generate more noise when on harsh road ..but LC generated very less.

U can increase your pressure to hv less of this wobbling feeling

+1... coz PP2 is UHP and Primacy LC is comfort where is side wall of both tire is totally build to different expectation... LC side wall is more softer so u can get more flex (more body roll) during the corners, hence it give you more comfort... but PP2 u get stiffer side wall where it gives you the handling (less body roll), sadly with that it will decrease ur ride comfortableness

Different category of tyres. If you need better handling at high speed, pump more air when going outstation using highway... smile_thumbup.gif
