100% confirm~

need help to choose between these few tyres..
just need ur expert comments on d following tyres based on below:-
price, comfy, quiet, safe, durability

pirelli P6
Michelin PP2
falken ZiEX 912
good year eagle F1

quiet then F1 is out... btw what is ur size???
safest bet is Falken 912

between turanza GR80/AR10 n xm1, which one is more long last? comfort n quiet?
n which one better in wet ?

not sure... but GR80 is like Primacy LC level... AR10 in entry level, so do XM1... so i think GR80 will be better... GR 90 got ur size??? that is new

duno, i got to ask my foreman
but bridgestone wun long last than michelin does, right ?

actually depends on how u drive la...
what is ur size now... 195/55 R15 or 185/60 R14??? or others...

sigh, my tire just leak...........dont know want to patch up or buy a new 1
please recommend me some good tire range under rm130 for size 175

my size is 195/55/R15

yes safe bet is 912... PP2 is next but a lil expensive... P6 not sure Pirelli never try b4... and seldom got ppl feedback on this brand, over expensive...

hi every1, i just came back from tire shop(kampar,perak)
here is some option for some 175 size (iswara)
good year- rm135
continental, they say no stock, but when they come around rm 120-135
michelin - rm160
1)is the price reasonable here?
2)which is beter for my car?
include alignment and balancing

Michelin... skip Continental CC1 it has some problem... my gf is using XM1 on her family Iswara Aeroback also...

both oso wrong, its 175/65R14 stock tires
plan to change to 185/60R14 after some times

eh... i though u changed rim or tires... cos u say not good mah... hmmm haha... i know stock tire is that size...

well as you prefer... but if you want comfort i think 912 suits u but it will be a lil noisy after 5000km... XM1 only entry level tires... u want better ones better change to 15" for 195/55 R15 tires...

195/55 R15 wil be vry bumpy rite ? n the rim width is just 5.5jj , 185 is aldy slightly wider the the rim width, i bet 195 wil be more not good fit
if i wan, i will change it to bigger width rim 1st
which 185/60R14 is the most soft tires ? michelin ?

it is ok i'm using it wilt my ori Vios rim already...
it is the minimum size required for 195 tires...
for that size you can get Primacy LC Michelin Luxury Comfort tires... quiet and comfort...

185/60 R14 u have only Falken 912 and Michelin XM1... but i prefer u try 912 coz it is a performance comfort while XM1 is entry level some more then price is not difference by much... 912 might be cheaper also...
the only thing is 912 might be a lil noisy than XM1 after 5000~10000km... hard to say...

wats the advatage of using 15" instead of 14" ? wider = more stable ?
wider means tat pairing wf 195 or more ?

yes u can change to 195/50 R15 for better performance tire choice...
u have Bridgestone RE001, Michelin PP2, Toyo T1R, Yokohama AD08 or S Drive Federal Evo or RSR... those tire give you more handling and grips... but u can try those 195/55 R15 just nice within the 3% rules... which u have more choice of premium/luxury comfort tires like Yokohama C Drive, Toyo DRB
so it is ur choice... or u can find Toyo Teo Plus for 185/60 R14 which cost around the 15" tire also... RM200 if not mistaken
