Then u can start to check the rubber lining on the boot. At the same time I also suspect the roof cushion are too close or maybe touch the roof, so when our car roof is cold (when we park outside) it tends to wet the cushion as well. But this is just my wild guess, perhaps you can verified that.

okok, your suggestion noted.

QUOTE(fazron80 @ Mar 23 2010, 07:41 AM)
I pump in the same 33psi front and back. Why? Some say higher pressure gives better fc at the price of comfort.

My own judgment was if i pump in standard 31psi I look at the tyres and see it just looks flat so pump in more la hehe. flex.gif 

According to the door the standard tyres for gen2 is 85v front and 84v rear which is why maybe the different given air pressure for front and back. Some say it because front tyres have to bear more weight than back.
*
maybe i sensitive,
i feel that my steering more lighter + quick respond after pump in 33psi instead of 31psi for front... blush.gif
Usually front tires should get higher air pressure than rear, becoz engine is in front mah,
unless your car always fetch ppl/thing then suggested to pump in higher air pressure for rear as well.

ahpaul, too much air not good coz it will hasten the centre groove to finish faster... 31-33psi i think still acceptable. harder tyres of coz more responsive la... u dun need to counter the 'lembik'-ness of the tyre from lower air pressure...
*
Ya, i know that, that's why i always monitor my tires pattern,
the only reason why i pump in slightly higher air pressure is to stiffer the tire sidewall.

Bro how does the ride feel with RE001... Sidewall flex and Alignment (pulling to left/right) and wet condition? say u run over a large puddle of water will it pull or just break through it.. at where and how much u bought it for?
*
that is my first tires after got my car from 2nd hand dealer,
stock tires only used 3days...

so far i quite satisfied on it, has been clocked 15xxxkm in 6months time.
wet condition, sorry i don't run fast in wet/raining condition,
because if you out of luck, what tires also useless,
No second chance in this life.

don't put so high expectation on wet condition,
and yes, it will pull a side if the puddle is deep enough,
make sure both hand hold your steering and release your accelerator .
dry condition is excellent. sidewall very stiff.

For pricing, you can check HERE

Recently hot tires you can consider about Michelin Pilot Sport 3. whistling.gif
read through Tire Disccusion Thread and they said RE001 performance so-so only... rolleyes.gif

very informative thread... thanks ah paul..

Sharing Sharing mah biggrin.gif

QUOTE(greddy @ Mar 28 2010, 04:29 AM)
Thx for the link bro...
Anyway i consider wet condition one of the important factor... tropical climate... you never know when it rains and i want absolute confidence on my tires which is the only piece of rubber that keeps me attached to the road and go where i want it to go. Luck is something subjective... when it'll run out no one can tell, but we can't live in fear luck may run out, we need to LIVE before we DIE biggrin.gif . Driving fast is not necessarily dangerous but driving recklessly is.
    
Back to the tires... I would say that i actually had good wet performance when i was in stock setup 15" stock alloy and eagle NCT 5 rubber. Now i'm running on 16" 650kg/wheel alloy with astar300 rubber, ride is sharper and reduced flex due to lower profile but somehow i couldn't get the wet performance. Do you think it could be the rim weight?
I hope it improves when i go from 195 to 205 but i know more rubber doesn't mean good wet performance...

Anyone here with Gen2 CPS on MPS3 ??? brows.gif
*
since you more emphasize on wet performance,
then you should consider Michelin tires.
RE001 - Traction A Grade.
PP2/PS3 - Traction AA Grade.

QUOTE
A tire's traction rating is also indicated with a latter. The top of this scale is the "AA" rating, indicating a tire with superior ability to stop on wet surfaces. "A", "B" and "C" traction grades follow.


btw,
how you mention your RIM weight ?? hmm.gif

QUOTE(boyzone @ Mar 28 2010, 09:00 AM)
Normally Brigdeston tyre is with hard rubber and most of the model only gain with A grade traction.
I using ZE 912, actually Falken tyre is from Sumitomo  rclxms.gif

yeah, my sister car is using Falken ZE-912 too.
just beware the shoulder wear ... sweat.gif

RE-01 is symmetrical ryt... is quieter than RE-001? How much is it bro?
Bro it's not RIM weight, if each rim weigh 650kg cannot carry edi wink.gif, anyway my bad.. they way i wrote is misleading... it's actually the rated load it can take... this value is usually stamped on the RIM... for alloy rims the lesser this value the lighter the rim should (strictly speaking of Cast Alu Alloy Wheels)
but if you want to measure the rim weight you can do it bro... using a hanging scale... judging from hand carrying rim will be 11-15kg for 16" i guess... but not really sure la...

any comments on the falken ZE-912 performance bro?
When a tire fails to break the water it aquaplanes, of course it varies with speed (Il take highway speed limit 110-120 km/h as my benchmark). BTW I think my next tire I'll go for RE-01 or RE-001
Thank you all for the input.... really appreciate it...

RE-01 tire?

This one?
i thought Malaysia got RE-01R only?

Press harder until almost 70km/h. Press brake abit, harder and harder until is feel the yellow line.
Press harder again, suddenly got krak krak sound and the brake pedal was so stiff. Like step on a rock sweat.gif
WTH is that sound? ABS is on?

i tried as you before i changed my disc rotor + brake pads...
same feeling here...

this is what i tried during CNY at MEX R&R @ 0400am:
speed up to 60km/h-70km/h, emergency brake plus fast turn steering,
steering able to turn but the brake come out 'krak krak' sound and disallow me press further... sweat.gif
