Tires on vehicles are one of the most important components, no tires on the car cause the vehicle not pun. Car is a needs of transportation needed for various needs.
Indonesia the majority of cars used are made in Japan, especially cars for families. The car is often used, will experiencd wear and tear an components, one of which is the tire.
I tried to replace a car tire that was damaged or bald on the left front the old tire is about four years old and the front wheel tire is faulty. One side is bald, because it will be along journey, so the front tire must be replace.
Tire shop is in the City of Sukabumi, West Java, and it is easy to find the address. This tire shop is one of the shop where tire can be sold at this tire shop. The intial process before the tires are unloaded.
First ask for the availability of tires, once there is stock with the some tire sizes. My new tires use the Bridgestone brand, this brand is a good brand and is used by many people.
New tire price
I bought two new tires to fit in the front. The price for one tire is Rp 675.000,- (six hundred seventy five thousand rupiah) or about 45 USD. Bought two tires at a price of Rp 1.350.000,-(one million three hundred and fifty thousand rupiah)or 90 USD.
Tire disassembly process
After the price has been agreed upon, the old tires are removed and replace with new tires. Using a machine, then the new tires are balanzed with the machine so that the two tires are balanced.
New tires are installed at the front, then the next process is spooring. Spooring is an alignment or process on a car to realign the four wheels of the car as before. According to the factory setting.
The cost for spooring and balancing is Rp 150.000,-(one hundred and fifty thousand rupiah) and other cost. The total cost is Rp 1.535.000,- the deducted from selling used tires Rp 75.000,-,so what I pay is Rp 1.460.000,- or more or less about 100 USD.
The price is standard and affordable.
