most of the tires will last around 40,000 km...
depends the driving style and also road condition that you have to drive thru daily...

Ronnie... you can go and ask about the price for Michelin XM1 or Michelin Primacy LC or Yokohama A Drive R1... or Yokohama A drive... or C drive if they have la...

all of the tires is more towards comfort and i think Michelin Primacy LC or Yokohama C drive is the most expensive...

if you wan to change Rim to 15" (195/55 R15) you can try out Michelin PP2 (harder, handling well), Hankook V12 (medium, performance with comfort) or Falken 912 (softest, Comfort but shoulder thread wear fast)

No rim changes will be necessary.
Any recommended honest tyre shops in Puchong ?

puchong duno woh... you can ask around lo...

Does the Michelin XM1 comes in both 185/65 R14 and 185/60 R14 ?

yes... just ask them...
both also you can put on your car...
i think Primacy LC is for 15" and above... sorry for the mistake...
try XM1... if not you can look for Falken 912 for budget change...

comfort wise ... 185/65 would be less bumpy compare to 185/60
but if ur current setting is 175 .. but u change to 185.. ur FC will increase..
there will be another extra 40 mm traction and it will definitely increase your FC .. but dunno for how much la

that is very minimal...
i changed my My Vios Ori size 185/55 R15 to 195/55 R15...
FC hmmm different tire brand and thread also varies of FC also...
Michelin PP2 compare to Hankook V12, Hankook V12 have better FC...
it feel the roll resistance of V12 is lesser...

Any shop carrying 175/60/14 in KL ?

Hi,

I would recommend you change to a good 15" rims and tyres (better grip and sporty look)
Else stay in your original 14" rims but a a good set of tyres as 14" tyres is cheaper compared to 15"

Just my view only.

Hi,
Since this page has idle fot sometimes. Would like to get a new advice from sifuss..
I m planning to change all 4 myvi tyres 175/65 R14. Time to change from the ori silverstone.
Can anyone suggest?
My budget is below Rm200/each due to minimal driving. Only to & from work every weekday for about 1hr total aday 😅.
I saw the option like Goodyear duraplus and Continental CC6 within my budget. I just want a safety driving since Malaysia is always raining.

Appreciate advice. And if can recommend place within klang valley 🙏

go for Dunlop Sport J6

https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Falken/Sin...N832-Ecorun.htm

Falken SN832 is one of the best wet performance tyre in market for mid range budget tyre.

https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Yokohama/B...rth-Es-ES32.htm

Yokohama ES32 also a great option

Another alternative Maxxis MA-P3
