hi guys
i'm driving a honda city vtec (not i-vtec version) Currently i'm using Falken 195/55/R15, decided to change 2 sets of tyres well, the boss recommended me Michelin PS 3 185/55/R15. She said (yes, she) Michelin 195 is bigger than Falken 195, advised me to use 185 instead. Price wise, RM210 including nitrogen (which i think is useless So, should I go with 195 or 185? |
