its the replacement for the ventus v8 rs, cheapest and most reasonable 14" tire, so there you have it. i'm already on the previous model, and this performance tread is silent while having a staggered V-tread design which is great in the wet. beats your ducaro ga, powerblitz 1800, ziex 912 in price and performance (well not the falken as its RM10 cheaper per tire), wet or dry.

erk it was 15"

If you are looking into comfort range, either Michelin XM1 or PrimacyLC will do.

thanks all for the reply.

pp2 is in my list last time but the thread line is not as good as those performance type .

haha as hankook rs2 really look nice thread line.

yes i more into cornering~ so compare pp2 and hankook rs2 which 1 better? who ever try this two on cornerin before?

parada spec 2 really can bring u to hell~ for drifter really is not bad tyre haha .
i pump 255 pressure cuz that wanna make the side wall more harder.
but it does work well but then the tyre just dont like to bite the road much.
brand new of this tire does work very well but u spend it 30% after the tire just suck after that.

Don't be fooled by tyre tread pattern. PP2 old skool pattern works pretty well in dry & wet. If you want nice looking pattern, RE001 is the one you are looking for.

Korean, Indo, Taiwan made not my favour, call me bias or whatever. I am the old skol type who only trust branded tyre.

Pilot Sport, GdYear F1 Assym, RE050 tread pattern not that interesting but it is all rounder, perform well in Dry and Wet.

went around melaka for replacement and got the following prices

195/55R15
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo - RM190 @ Soon Jaya, Malim, Melaka
Hankook Ventus V8 RS - RM180 @ Soon Jaya, Malim, Melaka
Hankook Ventus V8 RS - RM148 @ HK Tyre (Ah Boy), Kota Laksamana, Melaka
Hankook Ventus V2 LS - RM210 @ Soon Jaya, Malim, Melaka
Continental Comfort Contact 1 - RM138 @ HK Tyre (Ah Boy), Kota Laksamana, Melaka
Yokohama C.Drive - RM160 @ HK Tyre (Ah Boy), Kota Laksamana, Melaka

decided to replace my 2 front tyre with V8RS instead. Price is include trade in rubber....

PP2 is consider performance tires, stiff and firm sidewall, good for cornering

most of the tires have soft sidewall, unless is some performance tires, because normal tires are aim for comfort, pump more pressure to the tires doesn't make the sidewall stiffer, it is still soft, and you will overinflated your tires and causes it to lose grip, under extreme cornering or rainy day your tires will skid...

anyone used goodyear assurerance? price range for 195/55/R15? thanks...

try out 195/60 R15 for comfort... my dad Avanza also using this tire..
if you wan a bit performance... try Hankook V12 at this size 195/55 R15... RM180 only...
185/60 R15 is odd size la... less choice...

Synergy... haha... take Hankook V12 no regrets for Performance with Confort tire...

wow... PP2 not nice??? i tell you PP2 is one of the best all rounder... except it's side wall is on hard side...
Hard braking, Heavy Rains, Patch of Water will not even derail from it driving line...
I do drive at 170km/h with some times hard braking... (SEG without ABS) still gripping well...
heavy rains (Vios) raining cats and dogs still driving 130km/h did not feel anything slipping on PLUS...
Hydroplanning... you don need to worry it is among the best in the class... 60km/h over a 2cm deep water patch... no problem...
it will not turn pull you car sideways automatically...

don n get cheated by it's thread... haha... BTW i use 2 sets already... b4 shift to Hankook V12... no $$$

u can get cheaper price actually at bukit kemuning..try asking at other shops.ull know its cheap too..klang is too far but u an get the same price.seriously...

Hi guys, I've a tyre size of 185/65R15. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've checked around the tyre shop and was told that they have limited type of tyre for this size.

Any advise on where I can get a good Micheline/Bridgestone tyre that have this size? I think going back to Nissan should cost more to replace the same tyre outside.

it's quite rare n not many tire shop will have it~
u can try ard old klang road

I changed my tyres in July - Michelin Primacy LC - Tyrezone Tmn Megah - 195/55/R15 - RM220 (fullset)

odd tire size, i suggest you to upgrade to 195/55R15 if you want more tires to choose from.

i dont recommend you to go back to service center for tire replacement as they are not good in this things, most of them will just use back the OEM tires, which are not very good.

but some people believe that the alignment and balancing machine in the service center are very accurate

If I'm to convert the tyre size, what do I need to change besides the new tyre?

Ok noob here, will my rim support 195/60-15 ?
