It's a good tyre, quiet, comfy and grippy.

price for 195R55/15 ? better den michelin LC ?

Yeap, certainly cheaper than Michelin LC.

i using cc1.
not really that quiet. need try others

better den Michelin LC ? which one more long last ?

912 is suitable for normal use means not too aggressive... if you wan comfort + performance + quiet then only 1 that you can try out is Toyo C1S or GY F1 Assy... but as i know C1S come smallest is 16" and F1 Assy is 17" only...
for your size 912 is consider all rounder but not up to UHP categories... FYI performance tires never been quiet la...
if you can take a lil Directional thread humming try Hankook V12... that is a good tire...

FYI also, lasting tire will not give you that grip that u want... that is a nature... UHP tires wear rate is around 180~280, while passenger tires can be better like 300 and above... the figure is the higher the better...


are you thinking b4 u tell ppl C1S got in 195/55 R15 size... i have not heard C1S come in that size... if yes i would like to try it out already


*C1S do have 15" but only available on
195/65R15 91V
205/65R15 94V
215/65R15 96V

wat i copy from Toyo Japan...

195/55 R15 is either Toyo DRB or T1R...

hankook v12 comfy n quiet? better den LC ? how bout bridgestone?
u guys seldom mention bridgestone here

"UHP tires wear rate is around 180~280, while passenger tires can be better like 300 and above... the figure is the higher the better"
180~280 is wat? wat figure ? TQ

912 is ok when new, but after 50k km, the sound is significantly louder and grip/traction is bad even when dry.

Not better than Michelin LC in terms of quietness and durability.
However, it's certainly cheaper and more grippy than Michelin LC.

If you have budget for Michelin LC, I'd say go ahead.
If you don't have the kind of budget, you can consider other comfy and grippy tire like Toyo Proxes C1S.

According to Michael, Toyo Proxes C1S dun have 15", rite ?

Yeap, Hankook V12 is a good tire too.
Here are your options, Michelin Premacy LC / Michelin XMV1 / Toyo Proxes C1S / Bridgestone GR80 / Hankook V12.
You can't go wrong with any these mentioned tires. I think Hankook has the cheapest price tag.

among these 5, which one most comfy ? most cheap oso lol

Added on December 23, 2009, 8:22 pmI'd rate Michelin is the most comfy one. You have to pay premium price for it though.
It doesn't mean other brands are not comfy. They are all good comfy tires.

The price difference for these brands can range up to MYR100/piece. So, choice is yours.
If $$ is not an issue, go for Michelin.

now been using about 3k km... inside tread wear like normal.. outer the tread wear have reduce as now still using -2 camber setting... entering corner can carry more speed even braking in the mid corner feel stable in control but if carry too much speed in corner and apply braking ... the rear end abit loose...

-2 camber really geng...

this 595evo tire if use in the long term highway can notice the tire meld down very stickey...semi slick tire feel... so far tread wear is very smooth...
