Hi bro & sis, I'm using Bridgestone MY01 195/50/R15 only last for 1 year I need to change it. I'm looking for comfort type as I really cannot stand the noise with current model.

I'm checking on XM2 but do not have 195/50/R15 size for my saga FLX 1.6 SE.

Any recommendations please? I need help urgently...Thanks

ps3 and ze-912 are decent, if they had it in 195/50/15.

Blame the softer sidewall But it's fine. I wanted the Primacy LC actually cuz i'm getting old and wanted a comfortable tyre. Apparently they stopped selling it due to poor feedback (too soft, many complained bulging problem) and no way i'm getting the XM2

I'm impressed with the noise level of this tyre. But i'll wait for it to fully break-in before commenting further.

just wondering why MICHELIN Primacy HP price so high?

205/55/16 - RM1370

is this true??

im using michelin ps3 195/50/15 on my saga blm. go for it

I drive 2011 city too... was on achiles sport atr 195/50/16 but today had a flat and the flat was combi of nail and a burst tyre... flat was caused by burst tyre and appears under inflated

Scout around and my tyre shop says only tyre available is stock tyre but bigger in size...

Falken ziex thread usage fast... yokohama r01 only 2 piece left... xm2 no stock

No choice so going back to conti cpc2 195/50/16 at rm290 a piece

How is the NVH of the Goodyear Eagle F1 Directional 5?

Size is 195/50/R15.

Is the tire consider soft?

boys and girls...im hunting for Kumho KU36... anyone knows where and how much to get?? preferably around PJ/subang/shah alam....

Dear all,

I'm currently using Silverstone Kruizer NS500 with the size of 205/50R16. So far quite happy with it, reasonably good handling and grip, and give no problem to me so far for the past 3.5 years with 65k mileage.

But it's time to change now and I think this model is quite rare now. So would like to have some recommendations about which model to go for. 90% city drive, with occasionally long distance but no high speed >150. So safety (grip) and comfort (quite) will be my priority.

Budget around RM300, so for now my target is Conti MC5. But I have browsed around this forum and found out that I can get NT8000 for RM210 and PS3 for around RM450! Just wonder if the price different really worth it?

Thanks

Bro, try calling this number 0122247734 Ah Yaw at KKP Auto. Last time went to his workshop saw few new Kumho KU-36.

YL Auto also carry them I think. 0165466712 Steven.


If you okay with Silverstone Kruizer NS500, you will be amazed by the the Neuton NT8000
You sure the price is RM210 and not RM310 ker?
I only use Silverstone Kruizer NS500 for 2 months then jual kat kawan. Dry grip so so only but very bad grip in wet. Maybe I drive lousy

Thanks. I think I will go for either NT5000 or NT8000.

The price should be correct, it's around RM210 to RM220, at least for Klang's price

I always drive within the speed limit, maybe that's why I'm still OK with the Kruizer NS500

NT8000 la. I read somewhere in this forum NT5000 sidewall is weak.

Had a choice to swap my OEM Conti Premium Contact 2

went for the most pricey choice at RM300, the Toyo DRBs but have alternatives (in decending price order)

1. Yoko A Drive R1 (RM250)
2. Falken 912 (RM240)
3. Continental Premium Contact 2 (RM230)
4. Nankang NS2 (RM170)
5. Achilles ATR Sport (RM170)

please tell me i made a wise choice T___T

already asked YL Auto on their FB page.. no have

u tokking about this KKP Auto?

actually now i getting confused which to choose already...

Toyo R1R: 195/50/15 or 195/55/15
Federal 595 RSR: 195/50/15 or 205/50/15
Kumho KU36: 205/50/15


ive got 5 diff tires to choose from and im confused...prices aroun in the 300-370 range


primary concern is track days but will also be using it for about 50-100km per week to the office (via highways) and also long distance drives with my wife n baby in the car....

Ya. 3 tyres above all got hard sidewall is it? Toyo R1R for track

any tire to be recommend for 185/60/14 size ? .

ze912 ? v8 blackbird ? or others?

.

according to reviews, yes...

anyway...im leaning heavily towards 595rsr in 205/50/15..

I thought 595RSR is the most noisy of the 3?

based on wat i read its the quietest....ku36 is noisy

but noise isnt much of a concern to me....grip, handling, sidewall n durability is

Just spent some time googling about tires and since i google using my tire size, here's my review on the Toyo DRB at 195/50/16 size

1. Outlook and first impressions
The tire is a semi-directional type with blocks at the sides, rounded at the edges. Beside them are two closed d shaped thread that gives it that semi-directional shape, and a solid unbroken hard centre rib down the middle with a strip of red ink (manufacturing marking). Tire looks less premium than the current stock CPC2s but it suits me so i'm fine with it. The edges as mentioned earlier is rounded, as compared to the square-blocked A-Drive R1s. Thread is reasonably thick, though A Drive R1s are thicker even, which i believe contributes to its awesome threadwear. Other options to be considered during my purchase include the stock CPC2, A Drive R1, Falken 912, Nankang NS2, and Achilles ATR Sport.

2. Decision
From the above choices, i decided to go for the priciest option for the heck of it. Its the only tire made in Japan so that's comforting to a certain level. I also wanted to try something different than the same ol CPC2. Nankang NS2 was priced at RM170 per piece, similar to the ATR Sport. Nankang NS2 however had very bad reviews, and i was considering ATR Sport. However, a fellow forum member once mentioned that it bulges and some cheaper Korean tires tend to burst out on highways. I don't do highways much but i rather not it happen at all. I do not like Falken 912s as i had personally bad experience with it being severely unbalanced, uneven wear (not due to alignment), and bad threadwear. The A Drive R1s are a good choice on my previous car with its long TW and ok grip but i wanted something different. The Yokos are RM250 each and the Falkens are 240 each. I bought the Toyos at 300 each.

3. actual usage
Well, i didn't use much of it yet, under a thousand kms but then it has already shone. it has good roadholding (i tried some quick-ish u-turns), not as noisy when driven in car parks, pretty ok water dispersing (it rained like nobody's business right after i bought it), and no major issues. comfort is there and since tires are new, its pretty quiet.

4. future
will update on the grip and lifespan but so far, so good.
