my car stock tire is using 205/55/R17 (CBU Japan car), which is very rare to get locally. Based on tire calculation that can be found on the internet, the nearer size would be 215/50/R17, without sacrify comfort and FC much.

In LYN Tires Price List (maybe not updated) only 2 brands listed:

215/50/R17
Goodyear LS2000 - RM370 Quick-Save
Goodyear F1 GSD3 - RM385 Quick-Save

seems that my options are very limited. Anyone can advise other brand with the same profile (215/50/R17)? icon_rolleyes.gif

erm 300-400 each for that size is very little and basically limit your choice towards bottom of the barrel type...

Went to tire shop @ shah alam. They quoted me RM350 for 215/50/R17, Yokohama C-Drive (made in philippines)

C-Drive should be comfort + less noise i guess? hmm.gif

Note: Really tempted with Breyton 17" black rims. Ori from Germany. Normally used for BMW car wink.gif
