QUOTE(shinjite @ Nov 16 2009, 11:52 PM) Wow I didn't know NCT5 is better then Falken 912 and is MY01 better than the 2 of the above? All along in my mind, NCT5 is crap, MY01 is crap, never bother about Falken 912 I can say NCT5 performance is crap... going down a small hilly slope... it activate my ABS... changed to PP2 it grips well... change to Hankook V12 grips well... i think even Michelin Entry level is on par with it... and GY dare to put it as performance level...  of course the handling is good but what is the purpose if it's traction will break easily... Falken 912 i heard not bad a lot of NCT5 users changed to it can they say is better lo... not sur how accurate but i swear i will never touch that again... it really give you a heart attack suka suka...

i just changed to goodyear duraplus x4 tires....location at bridgestone tire shop at melawati
1 tire was about 180 free alignment and balancing
overall impression on this tire is definitely good tho steering got a little heavier..non too much but heavier a little.

A drive for smooth driving, PP2 for better handling... of course Kenari cannot Corner too fast also...
