ok i know how to read the measurement liao. tongue.gif I m considering:

185/55 R15 +0.34% 2mm
195/50 R15 -1.2% -7mm

micheal, any comment between the two? the -7mm means car lower down by -7mm? also, whats the price difference uh? tongue.gif i know some tyre is more expensive than others.

michelin pp2 is performance tyre? how its like between performance tyre vs comfort tyre? hmm.gif

thx for ur help.

i get that from myvi forum haha. anyway, i decided on using 185/55 R15. 195 width is maybe too huge for me. 185/55/R15 is ngam ngam hau. My brother bought new city s spec, his tyre size is 175/65/R15. Although the width is the same, his tyre is slightly bigger than mine. Of coz my myvi wont be nice to have 195/50/R15 rite? the width is HUGE! fc kena jaga haha. Btw, i need to know what the price difference between different tyre size.

ok, i wan to decide on the tyre as well. no budget but i wan optimum setting for my wheels.

For comfort - Michelin Primacy LC, Yokohama C Drive, BS GR80
For Value for money, comfort and a entry performance - Falken Ziex 912

any wheel in between "comfort" and "better cornering"? ziex 912 ok?

thx for guiding me. notworthy.gif

Use 195/55/15 or 195/50/15 better..

185/55/15 only few brands... smile.gif

yes, i assume the 185/55/15 is abit more expensive right? how about 185/60/14?

from my understanding, the 14 inch upgrade to 15 inch is pointless because you couldnt see any big difference. I think 195 width is too huge for myvi. hmm.gif I see on the forum that some people regret of having 195 and want to change back to 185. I dont want to regret like him.. haha. even honda city high spec has 185/55R16.

thanks for replying.
