Bias Truck Tires versus Radial Off-Road Tires

Any driver will tell you that radial truck tires have innumerable advantages over bias ply truck tires. In fact, the tire industry has almost completely abandoned manufacturing bias truck tires, save for a few exceptions. Yet despite that bias truck tires come attached with a number of disadvantages, they still have their advantages when it comes to offroad conditions.

I wonder if they would spell my name correctly if I were to say "my name is Eleanie Tan"?
If you don't get what I mean, you should see my previous posts.

In the mean time, want to learn how to make a Malaysian noodle dish?

How to: Homemade Pan Mee Noodles


Ingredients (enough for 2):
  • Plain Flour (100grams)
  • Corn Flour (small handful)
  • Salt & Pepper (suit yourself)
  • Water (1 tbsp)
  • Egg (1)

You will need:
  1. Rolling Pin
  2. Extra flour to prevent dough from sticking
  3. A place to dry your flatten dough



How to make Pan Mee Noodles

Have fun playing with dough like I did!

Leave the flat dough to dry for 15mins. Fold the flatten dough to a tube shape and slice it as you like. Otherwise don't fold because some people like it teared :) It's called "nie" in Mandarin.

I googled a picture of the noodle with soup.
I did not make the whole meal because I did not have enough soup ingredient.
:) There are a few ways to cook your noodles!

Adelaide Sunday Mail


Adelaide's Sunday Mail

Me, Curtis and Tim in Sunday Mail
People here can't spell.
Most can't tell the difference between 'Your', 'You're' and
'There', 'Their', They're.

When they asks for my name,
they'd expect me to say something like "Ching chuung tei",
but instead I say "Elaine" and spells it out for them...
I must have been saying "Ken euu sipella?"
My name is now Eleanie Tan.

The Hydrogen Super Car: RMC Scorpion



Here is the RMC Scorpion supercar, created by Ronn Motor Company. This car uses a revolutionary gas fuel injection system that mixes hydrogen with petrol and injects it into the air-intake manifold. Then hydrogen comes from the water stored into an on-board 1.5 gallon tank. It means that it has better performance and less fuel consumption. Ronn Motor Company has announced two versions of the Scorpion, one powered by a 300 hp 3.5 liter Honda V6 returning 40 mpg and the other one powered by a twin-turbocharged HX version of the same engine, which delivers 450 hp, goes from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and goes over 200 mph. The RMC Scorpion will be available next year...

Are You Ready for Taller Off-road Truck Tires?

Buying a set of taller off-road tires for your 4x4 is like making a marriage work; it involves sometimes drastic changes, sacrifices, and commitment, along with constant care and maintenance. On the other hand, at least you won't have to remember anniversaries.

The first thing to keep in mind is that upgrading to taller truck tires means upgrading a number of other truck parts in your vehicle as well. Additional inches of vehicle clearance are needed for the truck tires to fit without rubbing against the vehicle fenders. Truck parts like a suspension lift, body lift, or a combination of both can provide those additional inches. For off-road purposes, a suspension lift is preferable for the increase in wheel travel ability, whereas a body lift simply allows for the fitment of larger offroad tires without any offroad performance enhancements.

Larger truck tires also mean that your vehicle will be working harder to tote additional weight, which can result in significant strain to your axles and shocks, and also alters the gear ratio set by the manufacturer.

To compensate for these changes, new ring and pinion gears and performance shocks (many complete lift kits typically include shocks) are strongly recommended. To counteract the additional weight and loss in performance, custom intakes, exhausts, computer chips, or any other performance-enhancing truck parts are also advised.
