is ok for you to change to 195/60 R15... but not advisable to 55 series...
try Falken 912 or Yokohama C Drive or Michelin Primacy LC... but Falken 912 should be around RM200 the other 2 around RM250...

yes, been getting advices from many people/blog/forum to try Falken Ziex 912....but how is it compared to XM1...
XM1 very quite. Lasts about 20k-30k..
Why not 195/55?
Im looking for comfort n value for money.

that is over the basic 3% rules... 3% plus or minus from ur stock size is not recommended... it will give ur milage meter a false reading and ur speedo meter also...
Falken is a step higher than XM1 as XM1 only a basic comfort tire... while 912 with a lil performance... and also cheap...

hi guys,

would appreciate it if I can know what my choices are to get a 195/55/R16 tyre size in the market. If I can afford it I would get Michelin because past experience was very good, but I do not mind settling for alternatives from Bridgestone and Falken if the tyres are value-for-money. I would try to stay away from Continental due to bad past experience....

thanks...

y not u give 205/50 R16 a try... that size is odd size if not mistaken...
205/50/R16
Hankook V8RS - RM270/pc @ Siang Sin Tyre, Mergong Alor Setar (3 July 2009, bought 4pcs)
Falken ZIEX-912 - RM265 @ Jooi Seng Klang (Apr 2009)

u can look for Hankook V12 evo also... it will be cheaper around V8RS price... BS not that value-for-money...

Hi bro michael,

I plan to change to 195/50/15... Is it considered low profile?? Or only 45 and below is considered low profile?? Cause I don't want to kena hole and buy new tyres.. Is Hankook V12 good??? Thinking of using V12 for my 15"..

For Myvi, thinking of using 195/50/15 or 195/55/15.... If not mistaken, 195/50/15 shows more accurate readings ya?

How much is V12 195/50/15 and V12 195/55/15?

Thanks

for Myvi 195/50 will give u more closer reading with the OEM fitting... 195/55 give you more comfort... both 50 and 55 series already consider as low profile... 60 series is normal... majority then cars OTR today is on lower profile tire that give you better handling...
Hankook V12 at that 2 size is Max RM200... on May i bought in klang for RM180/pc (55 series)...
if you ask me... V12 will give you in between the Falken 912 or Michelin XM1 and BS RE001 or Michelin PP2 or Yokohama S Drive... it give you a lil comfort while the handling is not far away from Michelin PP2...
can consider this tire as Cheap and Worth the value that we pay for... for PP2 and S Drive at that size u need at least RM240/pc... or RE001 around RM270... further more if you prefer comfort ride more than harsh ride u can take off this 3 tires in your mind...
lastly u only pay RM190/pc, you get around 80%~90% of the performance of those and u save RM50/tire or RM200 all round... y not?

Thanks for the fast reply, michael.. U using 15"?

Original Myvi is 175/65/14... Now using 185/55/15 Goodyear NCT 5 tyres..

RM 180 per piece is cheap... Can't wait to change it

195/50 is cheaper than 195/55 right?? I don't mind less comfort as already using 205/40/17, like sitting on horse... Lol... hehe

it should be more or less and it is only 5% more in thickness and the demand of this 2 is there...
if you don mind sitting in a horse u can try PP2 or S Drive... good handling... but Hankook V12 beats them on total ranking in a test done by Opel using its Corsa fitted with 214/45 R17 if not mistaken...
PP2 get the hands up in the wet condition as it cuts thru water puddle very good...

** talk about S1 evo in AW... i wanna know more...
my nick there is Michael80

bro michael9413 and other sifus,

Appreciate your comments on the following:

1. GY Revspec RS-02
2. GY Eagle F1 GSD3
3. GY LS2000 Hybrid2
4. GY Excellence

thanks

Throw away no3 and 4... if you wan more grip and handling... Excellence is a failure... it does not provide good grip...
sorry i couldn't comment much on Eagle F1 GSD3 and also RS-02 as did not use it b4... i skip GY already...
BTW... do you mind to tell us what is ur ride tire size and also ur budget... of course please tell us also Ride comfortness or handling which is important??? then we should be able to give you some good comments...

thanks for your prompt reply. Size = 215/50/17 or 225/50/17. Am looking for better handling, but not too bad on ride comfort. I understand we can't have best on both, but not too bad on the ride comfort if possible la.... based on what I listed earlier, budget shd be around RM500/= lor

thanks

er.. what is ur original size??? and ur ride??? sorry... just wanna see ur car weight and also will it be suitable to use softer side wall tire or not...
i think you can get 225/45 R17... u can get almost everything you wan on GY F1 Assy... don get cheated by the Assy thread... a lot of good user review... good handling and also privide you a lil comfort...

Hankook also not bad... Check out S1 Evo or V12 Evo both will give you a lil comfort... test result available at those website also...
hankook will give you good reasonable price... i'm using V12 at my Vios 195/55 R15 now...
