just call some tyre shop around Kulim and SP, most of the shop did not have stock for the GY F1 Asym 
have to order from KL... not much demand.....
only 1 shop offered RM410/pcs for the F1 Asym(not sure made in china or Thailand-how to difff?) and 390/pcs for F1 GSD..... and have to wait 2 days for the tyres to arrive....
now my dilemma would be... rm1600 for 4 GY F1 17", or change back to stock RIM and use the 205/55/R16 which i think should be around that budget also...
btw, roughly how much trade in price for my 20% left PP2 har?
does any1 here what is noise/comfort improvement level for 50% thread F1 Asym compare to my current 20% PP2. (benchmarking)
FD1 pair with [17"GY F1 Asym] vs pair with stock [16" PS3]
what is the % diff of comfortableness(less bumpy)&silent compare to 20% PP2 for both configuration above...
if have >50% improvement then will definitely maintain 17" back....
kindly advice.thanks ya.
wondering all the fd2 user can stand with the bumpy/noisy ride coz their stock alr with 17" RIm...
well change to more comfort tires will solve it la... C1S, Primacy LC for comfort... or V12, PS3, F1 Asy performance range but the tire size wall is not really hard so it might compensate a lil comfort... have to order from KL... not much demand.....

frankly, if you really concern about the comfort then 16" in your choice go for PS3 or V12... but there goes another concern but incoming another where the handling will not be as good as 17" (fitted the same tire)...
if you say PP2 is harsh i understand is just the sidewall is a lil hard to accept, PS3 will be better... it improves the comfort from PP2 and of course the grip too... then here comes another V12 where it is softest between the F1 Asy, PS3 or even PP2, the sidewall flex more during hard cornering but it's grip is never disappointed too... is just you will felt a lil slower response when during high speed maneuver, compare with PP2... i tested with PP2 to V12 b4 so i know even i'm on 195/55 R15 only...
if you wanna maintain your 17" i think V12 is your safest bet... it is below RM350 about RM100/tire cheaper than PS3, although it's performance is like 90%+ overall what u get from PS3 but it is worth the value leh... 4 PS3 vs 5 V12 almost same price leh...
your choice...

any recommendation for me?
looking for 195/50 or 55/15 tires.
Spec prefer:
-thread can last quiet long
-reduce aquaplane
-grip in dry or wet
-not so noisy
thanx
i think you can try PS3 or RE001... cost you around RM230~280 for 50 or 55 series... you cannot achieve all 4 especially u mention the grip in dry and wet, as most performance tires will not last over 40k... but that is still depends on your drive style... if you don want much noise then skip directional tires coz it tends to make more noise than Asymmetric/Symmetric tires...looking for 195/50 or 55/15 tires.
