hi guys, what is the best tire and price for 225/50 R16 for tires?

I plan to change my upgrade my rear tires only. current is using 205/55 R16 Michelin MXV8.

my rim is 16 x 7 et 47. Front remains 205/55 R16 Michelin MXV8. thanks.

225/50 R16??? those if not mistaken are rare/odd size tires la... it will be more expensive than you think!!!
call up some of the shops posted in the 1st page of the Tire Price List Thread

I found 2 shops that have 225/50/16W (ZR)
Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 ( Germany) – Rm520 MPS Auto, Sunway
Toyo Proxes T1R (Japan) – Rm480 MPS Auto, Sunway

However those are V pattern , can they match with my front Michelin MXV8 ? In term of handling them on the road?

GSD3 is King of wet... these 2 is way better than ur MXV8 la...  as those are UHP or Max tires while MXV8 is comfort only...
that price i can get new Michelin PS3 also quiet and a lil comfort compare to GSD3...

BTW GSD3 is better than T1R
ok. thanks for the info. however, the new PS3 doesn't have this size 225/50 R16.

Question is, since my front MXV8 still have 70%, will this setting OK?
Front MXV8 205/55/R16, Rear GSD3 225/50/R16?
