cannot recommended size is 195/60 R15... i do not think that PP2 have this size...
if you want comfort with performance it is a bit thick... with that size you can try
Primacy LC (Luxury Passager)
Falken 912 (Comfort with a bit performance)

what is your driving style??? Aggressive cornering? Hard braking?
Which do you want... rank it yourself then tell us... we can help then... Comfort? Handling? Noise? which is priority?

price list from AW forum...
195/60/15
Falken ZIEX-912 - RM190 Tek Meng Sunway, 3% credit card charges
Hankook V8Rs - RM 220 @ Bridgestone Taman Desa - next to Vityas ( Mar 09)
Michelin XM1 - RM210 @ Hin Leong, Klang (Aug 09)
Michelin Primacy LC - RM250 @ Klang (Aug 09)
Hankook Blackbird V2 (H424 V8RS) - RM195.00 @ Bukit Tinggi Klang
Yokohama A.Drive (AA01) Philippines - RM190 @ Jooi Seng, Klang (Aug 09)

This tire falls under Luxury Passanger tires which mostly will be fitted into those ppl who want a step better than entry tires...
it give you quiet and comfort drive... occasionally you can drive in aggressive style but not for hard cornering...
as i always ask ppl what is your tire size and what is your priority? Comfort? Handling? Noise?
from this 2 that you provide we are able to give you more recommendation

195/50 R16... that tire ar... eeEhhh... well frankly speaking i will not recommend you to use that...
if i'm not wrong your ride is Satria Neo... that tire size is really rare... not common...
you can switch your tire size to 205/45 R16 if you don mind the ride comfort will drop...
in this range you will get more choice...

price list for the tires with comfort... which will not give you really bumpy drive...
205/45 R16
Hankook V12 Evo - RM 255 @ Jooi Seng, Klang (May 09)
Falken Ziex ZE-912 - RM245 @ Jooi Seng, Klang (May 09)

u hardly find this tire.... try 205/50 R16... that is fine also...

205/50/R16
Falken ZIEX-912 - RM265 @ Jooi Seng Klang (Apr 2009)
Michelin Pilot Preceda 2 - RM420 @ Wangsa Maju KL (Apr 2009)
Michelin Premacy LC - RM380 @ Ban Hooi Klang (Apr 2009)
Bridgestone Potenza RE001 (japan) - RM348 @ rawang

for comfort you can try Hankook V12 for all rounder... but it is a bit noisy due to its directional thread
Falken 912 also not bad for a comfort tire... and it is budget...

that is a bit higher than Hankook V12 and Falken 912...
it is in the mid range of this 2 tires and Michs PP2/Toyo T1R/Yokies S Drive...
the performance is still unknow due to it is newly launch...
although there is a few good feedback but there aren't comfirmation yet...

BTW can you give us a review on the tires??? What is ur previous set? or any set that you have used in this size b4...

@Bigblock,
you have 2 size... either 195/55 R15 or 195/50 R15...
with this 2... you have to choose again which categories do you want??? Handling, Comfort??? Noise is it important???
for Handling and you have $$$$ u can try Michelin PP2, Yokohama S Drive...
for budget Hankook V12, Federal 595 and Falken 912....
if you wan quiet tire Falken 912 and Michelin PP2 is ok for you....
Comfort is Hankook V12 and Falken 912...
PP2, S Drive and Federal 595 i heard is a bit hard... can give that a try if you want good good handling...

if not mistaken both also UHP categories... only S1 thread looks more aggressive... not really sure..

Bro both if more towards comfort tire... Falken is around Rm180 if not mistaken... Yokies A Drive R1 not sure though...
Except this 2 u can try Hankook V12 if you wan directional tires... not aggressive look...
performance wise is in between of Falken 912 and Mich PP2...
912 is more towards comfort... V12 is Comfort performance... while PP2 is UHP tire
PP2 is a bit hard for you... coz of the harder sidewall.... that will give you good handling...
so Falken 912, Hankook V12 and Yokies A drive R1 will give you a lil more comfort than PP2

Toyo around RM250 if not mistaken... you can try Mich PP2 or Hankook V12 both got good review also...
very hard to find AD now i think... coz all of them are waiting for AD08... so stock of AD07 very very low now...

Fren assuming you are driving Vios or City...
can try Hankook V12 but a lil noisy due to its directional thread... RM180/pcs for 195/55 R15... they have in 195/50 R15 also...
Falken 912 also not bad around that region also... both of this is more towards comfort performance...
if you wan good handling ones you can get 195/55 R15 or 185/55 R15 from Mich PP2, though not advisable if you are driving CT


er.. you can try Hankook V12 or Mich PP2 for that size...

yes PP2 will give you good handling if you don mind the ride will become a bit harsh... coz of ur car suspension setup...
if you wan to have more comfort... Michelin Primacy, Yokohama C Drive, Yokohama A Drice R1, Toyo DRB...
all of the tires above is within the budget

or if you don mind a bit noise... you can try Hankook V12 where it is in between PP2 and those comfort tires...
but it is directional tires hence is a bit noisier than PP2...
but grip is definitely better than ur stock NCT5 and it is around RM180 (in Klang) only

This post has been edited by michael9413: Sep 4 2009, 11:29 AM

us better change ur size to 205/50 R16 or 205/45 R16...
that is a very special size indeed...
but again ur fuel consumption will increase slightly..

Well at that price... y not try Hankook V12... but sadly stock is very low in the Klang Valley...
you have to search for it... a lot of ppl giving good review... only at RM180/pc at Klang...


Hankook v12 - RM266 (with trade-in) @ Tek Ming, Sunway - July 09
it is still quite new in the market... but recieving good reviews from users including me...
reasonably priced also compare to Yokohama S Drives and Michelin PP2...
if you are ok with Harder side wall tires you can look that 2 tires but price is on premium side...

AD08 is in SG already... i do not think ppl will have AD07 stock but you can give it a try...

That is a special size my fren... what tires are they supplying to u??? CC1??? that tire careful...
have bulging problem on the sidewall... i also using 1 set now... but after buy only my fren told me got that problem...


Hankook V12 Evo - RM 255 @ Jooi Seng, Klang (May 09)
Falken Ziex ZE-912 - RM245 @ Jooi Seng, Klang (May 09)

this 2 tires will suit your price range...


All Hankook V12 is very low on stock as it is quite how...
it is a UHP tires and it's performance is 90% of Michelin PP2 (UHP tires)... but priced at a very reasonable level...
If you wanna use comfort tire for your CT... you can choose either Michelin Primacy LC (around RM220/pc)...
or Falken 912 (around RM180/pc)... but this 2 tires is more towards comfort...
set your priorities... Comfort, Handling, Noise???
If noise and comfort is priority then Falken 912, Michelin Primacy, Yokohama A Drive or C Drive or the new A Drive R1...
those will fit your requirements... but if you want more performance and you can accept ur ride will become a bit harsh...
then Michelin PP2, Yokohama S Drive if your choice...
of course you have Dunlop D-01 and Bridgestone MY-01 also... but these is not a really good performance tires...
but it is ur choice to choose...

eh... how is the wet performance...
not much ppl is using this... what is your previous set of tires... or what tires have you use b4???

haha... for me both equal... so v12 is for me....
what Yokies have to use... try Michelin PP2 if you don mind to pay a bit premium...
better than Hankook V12... wet can go 130~140 in highway... go thru water patch without problem...
but it's side wall a bit hard...

Well PP2 will shine on wet but careful on corners... as you know corners in wet condition very dangerous...
but if the corner is not that sharp no problem... PP2 will go thru all water patches with ease... around 10mm deep also not a problem...
but of course u have to grab the steering la... to avoid sudden pull... so far no much problem with PP2 3 set already...

see what you want... Goodyear Eagle F1, Yokohama Advan Neova Ad07/08, Bridgestone RE001... you have to becareful on wet condition...
of course the comfortness of them is not as good as Hankook V12... coz the side wall harder...
Hankook V12 is the softest side wall of all... it will absorb the small bumps well...
ranking in terms of comfort... (Softest to Hardest) Hankook V12 then Michelin PP2 and then Bridgestone RE001/ Yokohama AD...
F1 not that sure... but in wet condition PP2 beats all of them... the hydroplaning of the tires can say is the best among those tires...


S Drive and RE 001 have harder sidewall you will feel very good on handling... but you will suffer a bit for the comfort...
V12 is the softest and Michelin PP2 is in between them... V12 will suffer a lil on handling during High Speed... 100km/h and above...
PP2 is the most quiet tire among them *when it is new...
is your choice lo... Harder side wall give you good good handling... but Softer side wall give you more comfort...
PP2 is in the middle... but if you are driving Honda's car then you have to rethink... cos ori suspension setup is quite hard also...

no la... just give out only... Used 3 set of PP2 others just feedback from forumers...
V12 not bad also if you live at a place with a lots of bumps... using now... changed around May only...

drove my x-coll Mazda 3 fitted with S Drive b4... ride a bit harsh maybe due to the suspension setup... but good handling at high speed, tried around 170km/h...
V12 not bad... just handling slightly lose to others... coz of the softer sidewall... compare to PP2 is just 0.5 sec slower...
but still depends not hard or soft of your suspension setup at this moment...
PP2 works well with me either my SEG or Vios... but recently wanna more comfort trying V12 now...
good comfort tires... but a bit noisier than PP2 coz of Directional threaded tires...

for RM240... not a bad deal... if not mistaken Klang only RM10~20 cheaper...

must remember survey a bit... or look for the latest price list available online... b4 go...

any thing is possible not sure about Barum tires...
you can change ur rear tires to new ones only..
what is your preference??? Comfort n Quiet drive or Handling n a bit noisy???

well depends... have not try Barum Michelin is a bit expensive... is normal...
individual preference lo i can say... i will not buy it... but if you try to swap to Michelin yu will know the gap of the 2 brands...
same case with my fren... last time GY or Sime tire or Dunlop... after change to Michelin he did not look back...

bro what is your size?? if you want a lil comfort go for V12

haha becareful also when you take corners on wet roads...

haha... is hard but good in handling... even at 150km/h u still can feel the road bumps...

to all the bros whom bought tires not long ago... please update the price with date and place...
refer to Pg 1 for samples... thanks...

u should get the V12 which is a bit more quiet... if you want really quiet then PP2 and Falken 912 is your choice...
