Guys,
My current tire is Bridgestone Turanza RFT 195/55/R16. I'm planning to change to normal tire (not run flats). But i find the size is quite odd 195/55 for 16". So which size do you recommend and what brand.. Thanks.. |

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Jan 20 2011, 07:00 AM) Dunlop Direzza if not mistaken... forget already... I changed to 205/50 R16, got myself Yokohama S Drive AS01.. RM320 each...way way cheaper if i change to a run flat instead..not bad as per feedback but need some improvement on wet grip... Toyo C1S wears faster than CT-01 as per feedback but not by much maybe the forummer corners a lot... GR90 or Primacy LC also comfort... where are the 3 tires that you should look for... V12, PS3 and F1 Asy is performance tires which is not as comfort as the others lo... fren not driving fast in wet condition means u drive 80km/h??? do you know you can easily lost control at 80km/h in wet condition??? and do you know that speed is dangerous already in wet??? there is not such thing as good handling with good value and LONG LASTING... most of the lower profile tires will not last more than 40k km... depends how u drive... try Quicksave USJ 1, Tek Ming Sunway, Hup Soon SS3... 195/55 R16 is odd but not as odd as the new CT size 185/60 R16  only Conti and Goodyear got this size... you can change to 205/50 R16 which you have more choices... but the problem is how much you are willing to pay for your donuts?

Thanks for the feedback, will keep track on the noise, but now i'm just enjoying the grip and silence...hehee...comparing to run flats, too noisy..  |
