if u say PP2 can handle 140/kmh that look like normal speed.... alot HP tire have no issue when doing this speed just want to know what if we push in corner at higher speed, how much the tire slide off in wet corner and what is the control level in wet during cornering? for PP2.

Hey maybe we can meet up coz i should be free that time.

Btw today i hit something on the road n now my front screen got one line of crack

bro in wet condition... not dry... try it with raining heavily... usual tire will give you some hydroplaning effect... well if you are not that sensitive enough to feel tat dangerous phenomenal then i got nothing to say so... but u should not compare a new tire with a 50% wear off tire... PP2 50% wear already still give you the grip that u want in wet... Hankook V12 i can say good in wet but the hydroplaning resistance is still not as good as PP2 even GSD-3 is not that good but it is very close... but in the wet corners those directional tires stand out to be better... of course PP2 is not far behind... in TireRack they tested the twin siblings of PP2, PE2 with Yokohama S Drive, Bridgestone RE760 Sport (RE001 twins); well it beats S Drive and RE076 in overall performance, especially in wet where Michelin old skool thread also give ppl great surprises...

well they are quite good comparable with some of the directional tires... if you want really good grip then u need to look for Goodyear GSD-3 that is max tire if not mistaken with the size of 195/55 R15... it give you good G's in the corner no matter wet or dry... of course u need to bare with the noise it created and also the lost of comfort also...


ur screen is hit by a stone, from the car in front lo... my Vios has the same crack also although it is not growing...

yea this saturday can have a TT near PJ Seapark??? if like that i change my tire there lo...

Noted, maybe this sat i can join this TT, so able to ask more QA. so this sat at PJ seapark wat time?

not sure ask our frens... i'll be there as early as possible for my tire change... duno about others...

If u say 11am i shall be fine. Looking fwd to meet u guys too

then fix a place lo... 11am where???
Mostly i'll be changing my tires at a shop just behind the Sunrise Roasted Duck...

Cool, then shall we go for a test drive after tyres changed?

kaka... if my gf is not here... if she is there then cannot lo... haha... BTW my ride is old already not same as u all

for test ride i think skip testing it due to housing area and alot of cars that place... safety come 1st.

haiya... not delivered no problem come to talk talk mah... haha...

bro Vios2002, maybe travis wanna try out the tires only... cos a lot of ppl face dilemma on choosing tires just like me b4 PS3 was out... wanna try new tires T1R but scare it is not that good in wet worst than V12... PP2 is the reference of my car's wet handling, but V12 is not that far behind mah...

ok lets set... 11am meet at the shop behind Sunrise then eat roast duck (American style) for lunch...

still can join, new car not arrive does not mean cant join... later i also got other appointment need to rush too

+1

your Gf coming?

bro travis, tire test ok... Seapark area i think is not fit for test only 1 part can try ... the long strait NextCar BHP petrol station...

for the real road test maybe going to kuala Klawang with few other friends... to see max grip level offer by different tire maker.

Got this picture from the net, for me the tread pattern is quite boring..





however Michelin says PS3 is "Better road-holding in bends and three metres shorter braking distance on wet roads", which is a significant change in wet performance...so you guys pls review the tire after installing ..ok?

Cool, then we have our mini TT gathering then at 11am at PJ seapark.

Btw hope someone can provide a map to that place. I clueless about PJ seapark

priyangaf,
If u say PS3 design is boring then u should look for next level tire... more grip the tire design is very different, that also depend how far u push your car in cornering and braking...


travis,
where u from? maybe u can follow some one car... guide u there...
if u know how to got SeaPark look for Shell petrol station very near by...

PS3 is to beat RE001?

depend on how u compare in driving condition and how far u dare to push, i think both is about the same some gain point and some lose point...

re001 performance can say ok lah... today i saw re01R so tempted to take till u see the price
