No then it's not tyre fault.
Check air filter.

If you are facing suspension issues after changing tyres then it's definitely due to wrong tyre size. It is never recommended to install tyres with size other than company's specified as it causes suspension problems in the long run. Plus fuel economy is also affected.

Hassan1991 (Electrical Engineer ) 2018-02-09 14:36:56 +0500 #8

Remember installing lower profile tyre effect suspension not the bigger profile.
If you think i'm wrong come up with a logic.

I am not here to fight or prove any one wrong. We all are here to have a healthy discussion and try to help each other. I just think installing heavier tyres than recommended put extra burden on suspension and causes stiffness.

I am also usingthe same yokohoma tyre since first day i got this car facing no issue
excllent tyre amizing grip and soft drive drove about 8000km till date

the stock tyre was so bad that i couldn't drive 4 kilometer from showroom to tyre shop
many people using stock tyre as well anyhow its personal prefernce

if this is a healthy discussion then i think life safety comes first as heavier tires have better grip to the road then light tires most of the accident are caused by light tires even if you applied breaks why is that it's because light tires can't keep proper grip to the road most of the peoples change there tires when they buy a new car because they want safety of there loved one's not safety of a machine.

Well majority of the people change tyres for decoration and not for safety. Had it been for safety then they wouldn't have bought wagron R in the first place which comes with no safety feature. Safety isn't a big concern for people over here in Pakistan and that's the reason why we don't get basic safety features like airbag etc even in xli.

I'm using hondas fully synthetic 0w-20sn grade oil..and dear gee gee noise are not from tyres and no problem with 175/70/13. Stock comes with 145/80/13 euro tycoon.

Hassan1991 (Electrical Engineer ) 2018-02-09 16:22:47 +0500 #14

I'm not fighting or something. You took my words wrong.
I personally had done experiment of different profile tyres on 2 separate cars.
Stock size of ae80 is 155 i had used 195,185,205,175 with different heights.

Noise might be due to mud flaps or mud guard shield touching the tires once you pass through speed bumps. For Speed issues you can get your throttle body serviced and get your ECU reset.

pwuser150158627927 (Pakwheels User) 2018-02-09 17:04:47 +0500 #16

tyre are not for decoration neither for safety

they are just to have pleasurable drive with good road grip

people inclined toward good average oppose replacing of tyre those who compromise performance over average vice versa

Dear all brothers.

Thank you for reply.

Okay after reading all replies i have come to point [ if this installed size is ok then why my car steering vibrate when car reaches to 120 km/h speed ?

Boss i cant explain noise but i am sure its coming after tyre change.
Even mechanic said your shocks are dry due to mad get your car wash and spray dissel and oil mixure on bottom of car but useless...

pwuser151811959638 (Wahaj ) 2018-02-10 00:08:06 +0500 #18

Some more clear image of tyre

Hassan1991 (Electrical Engineer ) 2018-02-10 00:28:05 +0500 #19

vibration is due to wobbling....your rims need balancing.

pwuser151811959638 (Wahaj ) 2018-02-10 00:31:53 +0500 #20

Wheel balancing and wheel alignment done after installion of new tryes secondly yesterday did both things again..

Bro i think tyre are wide which cause demage to suspensions and it may effect steering rod kangi...
