neova is suck on wet...

got for 16?..try to ask for me...205/50/16...

well but if you really go for Extreme tires do not expect the grip in the wet will be good...
driving at 80km/h during heavy downpour consider dangerous

last time using re001...doing 200 on wet at sepang track...

man.. last time was using RE01R, damn good in wet... was driving about 150km/h in the wet from Putrajaya to USJ.

Neova really sucks in the wet. ehehehe..

i'll try and ask about the 16s. if got, i'll PM u man.

RE01r is the best...better than ad07...

Got a friend recently purchased Falken 912 for his Satria. When in the car, I think the tires are quite comfortable and he also said the grip is good. Price is affordable too. Maybe I'm switching to this for my car too.

falken 912 only good til about 60%. believe me.. u will regret it.

well see what is your size... if you are using 55 series... you can give Hankook V12 a try...
good for comfort + a bit if performance tire... but a bit noisy la...

we it depends what you wan... what is the speed you normally drives...
My dad XM1 is good for him... no need others woh...
me i feel that PP2 is best of me... handling in both dry and wet... and good aquaplaning...

my dad still want potenza series...he now use turanza...he said its sucks...all my family car on bridgestone actually...moms car on potenza re030...my bro on re001...hilux on dueler...dads car on turanza...me once on re001...

912 more to comfort...

hehe... all my dad's car is fitted with Michelin... even his KE70 which recently change back to Sime...
my family and i nag him about that... coz old old car still use Michelin which cost RM130/pc...
Vios - Hankook V12... previously 1.5 set PP2 after the stock NCT5
Avanza - After Stock straight Michelin XM1
SEG - After stock all the while Michelin XM1 till now 15" PP2...
VW - Continental i change that wanna try out Conti CC1 vs Mich XM1...
KE70 - Michelin after he bought back... then recently changed to Sime...

so all the while is prefer to use Michelin coz soft and good amount of grip for normal + occasionally aggressive driving...
all my record which i had done during my 17~20 yo time are Michelin XM1 13"... hehe...

When its new, yes, you can do that, but once reaching 60 or 50% of its lifespan, i have a hard time maintain grip in wet even at 120kmh. Even sunnyboi can drift with a 90% re001 in wet in 5th gear.

thats why i oledi selling it...

haha... better u go for Michelin PP2 then... after safety mark it still grip when i drive it during raining...
of course i'll not drive more than 100km/h if the tire wears until that stage la...

didnt prefer pp2 since tread wear is quite high...wanna test federal...

federal some good feedback from the AW forummers also...
duno about the real gripping after 50%... but PP2 serve me well on that...
you really can use until the wear indicator safety mark... i use more than that actually...

maybe after federal and pocket stable oni wanna try pp2...

To be honest, used the PP1 and PP2, they just do fine with me. Not that justify for the price imho. Or maybe coz of my driving style prob.

yea... the price is a bit steep... i used in total 3 set already...
but the quality did not disappointed...

its okay, but not for me when i push it to the limit since i travel touge/trunk roads a lot.

PP2 not for the shallow pocket. ehehehe.. simple as that..

as for me, i've been on Evol8 since 2007. changed 2 times already. grip very good, even in wet. price? a lot cheaper than others, even cheaper than Federal.

for performance, i'm only sold on 2 tyres, RE01R and Eagle RS. used to trust Neova until i spun out in the middle lane, in the middle of nowhere (Sepang - Nilai hiway) at 60kmh in light drizzle. phew.... nightmare still! hahahaha
