QUOTE(michael9413 @ Jan 2 2011, 08:15 AM) why not try the lenso rims... or advanti... quite ok... i just booked 1 set of Advanti Storm Light Weight version, 4.9kg for 15"... u can try look for it... Maxxis i-pro threadwear is ard 240 only.skip that... sucks in wet...  43k km ok la... not bad... UHP tires is like that, PP2 wears even faster... or some others... the threadwear indicates it is around 320 should be ok... PP2 280 only and some others also...  what tires have you used b4 the i-Pro and what tires are you using now???  currently using nexan n6000. doesn't feel as good as maxxis. threadwear is 300 on nexan. hopefully will last longer as my previous maxxis last me for 10mths only.

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Jan 4 2011, 06:51 AM) of course la... N6000 consider as comfort... it's grip is not good, the next UHP tire you should try out is the Hankook V12... better threadwear rating... Will give as try on V12 next round.er.. if 1 yo tires try to nego for cheaper price... new 1 yo tires should below RM150... Btw the price should be slightly higher than maxxis rit. |

Hi guys, my Nexxan N6000 suckx.
If u guys want to use UHP Tyre, dont go for this. Useless for connering. Skid damn kaw kaw during high speed. My previous Maxxis I-pro still the best. This post has been edited by Eric18: Jan 10 2011, 03:08 PM |

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Jan 10 2011, 08:32 PM) fren N6000 is not good at all la... it is good for normal driving, budget wise i would still prefer HankookV12... N6000 is enough for normal driving only.what is your preference on tires choice??? Handling, Comfort, Noise??? lastly your size... if you want silent tires then skip the directional type... Maxxis i-Pro, Hankook V12, Kumho ESPT, Yokohama S Drive, Toyo T1R and some others directional tires is not meant to be quiet if you want quiet try out Michelin PS3, Bridgestone RE001 for UHP tires... but comfortness is not that good... if you want comfort then Bridgestone GR90, Goodyear Assurance, Yokohama C Drives, Toyo DRB... these are comfort tires but grip is not as good as PS3 and RE001... what i your size??? Noise wise more or less the same. Handling & durable is my choice when come to choosing tyres. i will give a try on hankook v12 next round since u strongly recommended. i'm using 205/45/16 |
