Tyre Performance on Malaysian Roads
Malaysia's road network ranges from smooth highways to pothole-strewn urban streets that stress tyre sidewalls. For the Q5, we recommend premium tyres (Michelin Pilot Sport, Continental PremiumContact, Bridgestone Potenza) — the wet-grip difference on rainy Malaysian roads is significant. Check tyre pressure monthly: every 10°C change in ambient temperature shifts pressure by 1–2 PSI, and Malaysia's morning-to-midday temperature swing is considerable. Under-inflation by just 5 PSI increases tyre wear by up to 25%.
