Which is the better tyre among Conti CC1, Dunlop SP sport J3, and Yoko AA01? size 165/55R14.

I think their pricing is quite close to each other. Is there any other tyre to recommend in the same price range?

PP2 is Asymmetric la... it is more quiet...
KU31 is directional... should a slightly more noisy than PP2...
price, i'm not sure woh... last time my fren have Kenari, used both also PP2 is better but KU31 value for $$$$... ur call which to buy lo...
Sorry, used the wrong term. I mean both ku31 n pp2 both need to roll in single direction only.
How bout toyo teo plus? Any idea bout the pricing n performance?

Would prefer non directional n symmetrical tyres for easier rotation, and quiet. smile.gif

Teo Plus is a comfort tire which means performance wise it will never beat PP2 or KU-31... the price is a lil high too coz made in JP kua... at 185/60 R14 it cost me at RM220 which is the reason i rather upgrade my rim size to 15" to use performance tire... smile.gif
Seems better performance tyres mostly directional, I might give them a try. But, there's another choice in mind, hankook v8rs. How's the performance as compared to ku31 ? PP2 is out, unless it's cheap. Hehe.
Are they similarly price?

How much increase in fc to be expected as compared to entry level tyres? 5 % ?

for your size 165/55 R14 the difference between KU31 and PP2 is not that big difference... around RM30/pc if not mistaken... but for 195/55 R15 then it should be over RM50/pc... depends on shop offer also...

well not that much i think it is around 3%, depends a lot on personal driving style too... V8rs also not bad but it is a lil age, it had been replaced by V12 but too bad some of the sizes is not available on V12 too...

Before my purchase, kumho categorized ku31 as summer tyre. In m'sia, the rain fall is no joke sometimes. We do get pretty wet condition as compared to other 4 season country. Is ku31 really suitable for wet n slippery road?

3% increase in fc is ok as long as i get more safety. No problem with that.
