Expand Price not being a determinant factor, I'd go with Michelin, Theyill give you long tread life and good handling. And for shocks, better replaced in pairs, TT.

Expand Bro Why don't you consider Continental as well, Check the ContiComfortContact CC5 Its very good all-rounder, good dry, wet grip with low road noise. give you a balanced experience Edited October 8, 2017 by kishore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premio Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 Thank you for your reply. Michelin tyres are too soft and even compress by hand. I had a doubt about too soft side walls,and side wall failure. That is the reason to do a post with prices for comparison. I decided to gi for Michelin, top in safety wise and comfortable. I found it is cheapest in a Malay Street tyre shop. Continential tyre which i use is "Engineered in Germany" written. It's 'Conti eco contact3'. It's my rear shock failure. When i shake vehicle,i can hear 'squeeking' sound. Also noticed one plasric cylinder shape thing fallen,probably which connected to shock bumpers. Following photo shows the cylindrical thing fallen .

Ruslan Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) I'm Running Pirelli Cinturato P1s 14" on my Vios, overall it's a good Tire and road noise is less. better side wall compared to Michelin Energy XM2s. On the Shock absorber, i think your Bumper stops has failed. when it compressed, is it stops immediately? if yes then your shocks are good, unless if there's a sign of oil leaks around the cylinder. for replace just the bumper stops.

Premio Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 Looks like only bumper stopper broken.Can't see any oil leaks. When compress it stops immediately. Bit confused about pirelli and Michelin Mx2 as prices are almost equal . As you said pirelli side walls harder than michelin. Many peoples thinking how the tyre can give good milage with thinner side wall, but it will increase comfortability for sure by thin side wall.

Expand Seems your bumper shock mount broken, this might occur when you hit road bumps with full load (excess weight distributed to shock) , and one of the main reason to make shock failure in Allion and Premio. Recently I changed my rear mount I got a nasty hit with full load and ended with ABS Sensor failure and broken mount. The repair guy told me to replace the mount asap cause it will cost my shock if i run with it for prolonged period. Seems that's the problem you got now The mount will cost 2.5K if you get it from T.Lanka (Recommended). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnum Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Premio has torsion beam at the back isn't it? Didn't know torsion beam suspensions come with the shock absorber placed within the coil spring ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way saves some trunk space but sacrifices independent tire movement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On front wheel drives the rear is just a beam. on rear wheel drive its the rear axle itself Independent rears come in many forms but multilink is the most common. You can identify these easily because links from each wheel is connected to the body and not connected to each wheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can already see how independent suspension is more stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
