hi... i'm using 205/50/16 for the past 9 months and this is the second set since i bought my car 2 years ago...
it's still running fine and like new even though it's already clocked 30K mileage...
do bear in mind that you really need to take care of this Made in Japan tyre as you know our weather is different with them... usual alignment and balancing must be done on it...

at that price you can get PP2, S Drive and others tire...
Adrenalin is good in Dry but not wet... and it is hard in side wall...
so pls do make sure you can accept this b4 change...
if you want a all rounder i suggest to you change to Hankook V12 or falken 912 if u want cheaper than RM200...
for mid range it is Michelin Primacy LC, Yokohama C Drive and Toyo DRB...

bro... i made that decision also not long ago... but according to some frens CC-1 have bulging issues...
so becareful a bit on the tires... avoids hitting larger pot-holes....
Cheers...

last week wed i when to 1 tyre shop in kapar just to check some price and told him will change by end of this month...

yesterday sunday gave them a call to confrim stock and price and the guy say price increase not even in a week price change ... wat type of business he is doing ... ask A price later when install give B price...

if you really wan to buy... go that day to survey the price... face this problem also b4...

Any recommendation for 164/55/R14? Currently considering V8...which seems to be cheaper and better performance...

Bros,

195/50 for eagle F1, how much?

S Drive will have better grip and also better handling... Toyo T1R side wall should be a lil softer than Yokohama S Drive and also Michelin PP2....
softer side wall will give you more comfort but handling will loose out...
Michelin PP2 and Yokohama S Drive is around RM250 range... if you don mind the $$$ and also the wet grip...
can try Bridgestone RE001 Adrenalin...

there is nothing cheaper and better performance that tis frankly... Michelin has better performance but more expensive...

should be around RM200...

thanks bro...

appreciate it.

ya... for your size if you wan something similar with Michelin PP2 and u don mind it is a bit noisy...
you can try Hankook V12 also... cheap around RM200 only...
sorry last message said Michelin is around RM200 that is comfort tires (Primacy LC) not UHP like Michelin PP2 or Yokohama S Drives...

since you are using T1R how do you feel about it??? it is noisy... how is the wet grip??? is it like wat CheeAnn said... not that good???
what is the previous tires you have used b4???

just becareful when the thread is about 40% left...

Ok..anyone knows any place at PJ selling hankook tyres? cos i can't seems to see any Hankook tyre shop here...and what is the price like?

it seems that most of them is out of stock at this moment... Klang's shop still have stock but also limited..
this is due to the forum's recommendation... haha... it seems that too hot to handle...
they did not expect so many ppl go and buy this tire in a short while that this...

wow..ok...then i guess i'll just have to wait then...Or is there any other tyre we is not too bad compared with the v8?

kc,

You ride still running on RE001 or change already?

thanks for the reminder.

40% left means already run how many KM mileage?

btw,
you are using it on your Neo too?

Between Michelin Pilot Preceda 2 and Continental Premium Contact 2 for 195/60..

Which one is recommended? Both differences rm10

anyone hv the price info for toyo c1s size 215/65/16 or 215/60/16?

well if not mistaken CPC2 is Comfort Performance type... where Michelin PP2 is UHP type...
difference category... which is your priority... Comfort or Handling???
What is your ride...??? R15 or R16???
