hilux sweef oor die pad na nuwe bande

Post by 3.0 D4-D »

Middag Almal

Ek vandag nuwe bande laatopsit en al die nodige laatdoen soos balenseer en alignment.Toe ek later op die oop pad kom voel dit of die bakkie sweef op die pad teen hoer spoed as wat in die dorp gery is.Die stuurwiel is reguit en voertuig trek nie na n kant nie,as ek stuurwiel los loop voertuig mooi reguit.Ek het band druk gekyk en soos ek altyd gepomp op 2.2 bar maar dit voel nogsteeds op voertuig sweef.ek het eers BF GOODRICH A/T 31 10.5 R15 op bakkie gehaad en na 70 000 km hulle vervang vandag met BRIDGESTONE DUELER A/T 31 10.5 R15.
enige raad sal welkom wees

Groete

ek het die selfde probleem gehad toe ek van BFs
A/t na Kumo M/T toe gegaan het maar jy raak dit gou gewoond. n Mens raak seker gewoond aan die B/Fs se stywe 3 ply side wall en nou voel dit of jy oor die pad sweef met die 2 ply side wall bande

Keep in mind that for the first 200 to 500km the tyres still have there no stick coating which they use to get the molded tyres out of the molds. This will definitely have a effect on grip.

Thanks Ben, I run mine at 2.6 bar,hence the question. I must add I'm heavy loaded at all times. :thumbup:

I also use 2.2 bar without a load and find it to work fine for me on BF KM2 MT's. I don't know the duellers, but what Riaan about sidewall stiffness said makes some logical sense, - whether this is the reason or not might be debateable.

Ry jou nuwe Dueller met 2,6 bar druk die eerste 1,000 Km dan kom jy af na 2,0 bar of wat vir jou gemaklik is.
Die Dueller het meer buigbare sywande en sal aanvangklik meer "meegee" in die smeergroewe in die pad volg. Dit voel soos sweef. [Die Patrol doen dit ook met die Cooper STT's maar baie minder met die Khumho . ]

I recently changed from BF's to Gabbers. Old Swartvark also feel very light and loose on the road...weird feeling.
I guess it is a combination of all above.

Ek het die nuwe generasie (697) Duelers op my bakkie en kan glad nie kla dat hy sweef op die pad nie.

Die is definitief wielsporing, my doen dit ook nou nadat TWT die wielsporing gestel het. Dieselfde bande was perfek voorheen

Sekerlik sal SFA eienaars dit nie voel nie!!

'n Kombinasie van standaard los gevoel op die pad en geen vermoe om meer as 100km/h te haal nie!!

:laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: Thabo my SFA kan met gemak 120 km op die oop pad doen en nog steeds het ek geen probleem dat hy sweef oor die pad nie.Selfs as ek die stuurwiel los op 120 km loop hy soos op spore reguit in n lyn.
