HI there,
I recently change my tires, 2x Barum 195/60/15 for the front, my dad actually made the decision for me. Do heard that these tires are not that good. Am driving a Waja, stock was 195/55/15.

Since i have bought it I could not change it, for the back tires, its wearing off, so I am thinking if I should get back Barum, or should I change another set of tires for the front and move the Barum one to the back. Please advice dear sifus...

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???

The case is like that, my sime tires (stock) has worn out, so change to front tires to Barum, back tires still Sime, but didnt change all cuz expensive, and some how still can tahan la as the tires still have tread. Current situation is front 2 is NEW - Barum one.

My intention is to change the back tires too (end of the year). If I get back Barum, I will swap the NEW tires to the front, and current front tires (which is also new at this point) to the back, as controlling is still more on the front.

I would prefer comfort and quiet if possible lo. Dad was at the shop, Michellin tires was Rm70 more so he took Barum. Not sure if it is a good buy, but that was the decision made then ...

Hello, I have some questions and needed some recommendation on buying/changing tyres. Hope you guys could contribute to it... smile.gif

I'm currently driving a Waja, 195/60/15" (Upgraded from 55->60), Currently using Barum tyres, cost around RM190/piece. But somehow Barum is not that popular here, although knowing that it's manufactured by Sime Continental. My rear tyres are worned out, and time for changing new ones, front ones are still relatively new clocking 10k mileage only.

I'm looking for a comfortable tires, with good handling and quiet too. Is that achievable with the tyres make out there? I do read discussions about Comfy vs Performance, whats the differences - handling? noise? What would you all recommend? and where could I get good deal (as do know that some merchants are not honest, asking you to change this and that once they start working on your car).

Appreciate advices and feedbacks out there... CHeers!
