was the Thunderer Mach III. sub 200 bucks for testing purpose.
and semi-slick sux in wet. even worst on our road condition. also, shorter tread wear lifespan. not practical for daily use.
that's why am only using slick / semi-slick during hot track day.

btw, be more specific when comparing tires. do not based on brand. go for specific model instead; ie; S.drive, 595, R888 and so on.
Yokohama, Federal and Toyo is a brand. and there are few model under each brand which cater for different market segment smile.gif

michelin xm1 vs bridgestone ar10

wat is d different in term of
1)comfort = XM-1
2)quiteness = XM-1
3)fc = depending on your right foot
4)grip = almost equal

btw, XM-1 = made in Thailand while AR10 made in Indonesia?

till very much depend on the tires type and compound material being used by manufacturer.

only used ar10 for a while but 1st impression is fine for normal driving style.
falken 912 is quite a bang for bucks.
quiet and comfort. tread is on the softer side.

still more than 80% but since it was a used 2003 tires, use with precaution.
aged tires especially those stored in the hot place for long time might not be able to withstand the heat produced during constant high speed driving.

Hi All,

I'm planning to change my tyre to 205/40 on a 17" rim, any suggestions? smile.gif I prefer tyres that have a good grip on the road (wet/dry) with less noise.
My budget is 300 (can consider additional 50 if it is worthed)

Thanks smile.gif

depending on whether it was stored in a hot place and condition of the new / used tires.
manufacturers' recommended is less than 6 years for a new tires.

if there is no external / physical damage to the tires, perhaps, you could try to claim a warranty.
else, drive slowly. the bulging spot is the weakest point. tire burst at constant high speed could be the possibility.

change to new tire. rotating is not advisable. if you put it to front, its very risky for a front wheel drive car. if you put it to the rear, the extra pressure /load during cornering will further weaken the tire.
