Changing RFT to normal tyre
i am having coupe c205. one of front rft tyre (yr 2023) already shows bulging, the other side. due for replacement. . rear tyre rft thread still good. but already 4yrs old
car purchased new in 2020, and car milage only about 30+ thousand km. can say this is weekend car.
the 2023 tyre replaced because privious tyre also having bulging issue.
tyres not cheap😅.
thinking to replace front tyre first with normal tyre not RFT but SC advice to change all because normal tyre lighter(?) than rft and it will cause bumpyness. not sure what it means.
should i change only front tyre only or all. i dont mind bumpy ness as seldom drive the car.
beside this need to change battery, change transmission oil front and rear. distance sensor kaput, v belt need to change, spark plug too.
just want to spread the replacement cost over time. next yearly service due in january 2026.
