[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 368642, member: 3592"] You're a strange one. :) So similarly, as long as you don't hear your brakes screeching, changing brake pads is not necessary; as long as you don't hear your v-belt squealing, changing v-belts is not necessary, etc? I agree with being economical, but not when it comes to the component most important to the safety of yourself and others on the road. A full balancing and alignment job, where they also check your tyres, wheels, and rotate them, only costs RM20 per tyre, which is 1% of the cost of a new RFT. By the time you can SEE uneven wear, you've already scrubbed away 20% or more of your tyre. Needlessly. My tyre check interval is every quarter, which works out to about 5k since I average 20k a year. ;) [/QUOTE]
