Silverstone Kruizer tires are not any quieter as advertised. stupid sucks tires. its pretty noisy laa....idiot. it was quiet until few thousand KM on the road... the noise really comes.

it comes stock with my persona (6 months old). Tires are manufactured few months before i own the car.

what is the quietest tires on the market? continental tire? please advise ppl!  icon_question.gif   icon_rolleyes.gif

well that tire is not in my mind... it is not a good tire, as i know nothing comes cheap can perform really well but expensive tires also some is not up to expectation... so u really need to survey and buy not go there and jump into conclusion by the sweet talk of the shop owner...

A directional thread pattern does not automatically make the tyre noisy. Almost all Michelin's are directional tyres but they have very quiet thread and blocks.

Edit.. let me correct this.. Michelins are mostly asymmetrical, not directional as I mentioned. Therefore if the pattern is directional, then yes, most likely it will be noisy.

One more thing.. Goodyear F1 Asymmetric is an asymmetrical but uni-directional tyre. I believe it does not have a rotation arrow on the sidewall.

well F1 asy is similar what Michelin tire's thread is.... but unluckily it is not available in 15" sad.gif as it is a good all rounder max performance tires, with a lil comfort and quiet (*don expect it to be as quiet as non-performance tire)...

was actually considering the gy f1 assy as well but i end up buying the ps3 225/45/r17.
so far so good. although i don't give a damn about fc but the improvement is quite noticeable tongue.gif
in the meantime, am coming back for a pair of 195/55/r15 for my other ride.
btw, since my car is a rwd, i put the new donut at the rear but the mechanic advised me to put it to the front... hmm.gif
any comment?
