QUOTE(thefryingfox @ Jan 12 2013, 09:34 PM) Pls stay away from ATR Sport. Its very unpredictable - once about 50% used, totally looses grip AND by 30% atleast there is tendency for it to explode. It does not have any sort of metal mesh from the mid to the side - my neighbour had used one on his altis and the bloody thing just popped at 30kmh. Thank god he was safe Too late, Bought the ATR Sports yesterday. Cheap tyres. Plan to use it for 20k km or 60% thread and change. I don't trust AA Traction rating on 420 Tread wear.

The 420 tread wear rating is correct as tyres are very hard and very deep thread too. Tyres that hard is almost impossible to get AA traction. Feel its slightly better than MY-01 la. Much better than Silverstone M5.

After covering few hundred km, Achilles ATR Sport is not too bad considering the cheap pricing. Better than Bridgestone MY-01, Silverstone and Dunlop FM-901.

Hey guys, can anyone recommend which tires shop in Rawang that offers good workmanship in tire rotation/balancing/alignment ?
As I know tires shop in Rawang selling good pricing tires but how about the workmanship ?
Need a good SIFU for my car's balancing and alignment. Felt vibration on my steering wheel recently. Is really annoying.
Thanks!
Is TMK(Rawang) Tyre & Auto Service Sdn Bhd a good one or any shops in Batu Caves?

Hi, im having a dilemma on choosing to use runflats or non-runflats for my car. Runflats are expensixe but due to the hard sidewalls its actually very stable and can really take sharp corners. However its damn expensive.
Now am thinking to go for continental CSC3 or CSC5 or Nexen N8000 or Goodyear AS2. Can anyone give sone review on my tyre choices?? Whats the diff between CSC3 and CSC5?? Is Nexen good??
Thanx guys

Currently using Hankook V12 Evo at my Waja (195/55/15) after almost 3 year with 42k mileage, mostly city driving, occasionally outstation, can see the tyre started cracking up (and of course going bald too but haven't reach tyre indicator yet) Overall experience, the tyre did quite good job, I've enjoy it  , of course it can't beat assy 2. Any other tyre you guys would like to recommend for Waja standard stock rim This post has been edited by amirsubhi: Jan 25 2013, 05:17 PM

Hi guys,
My car's currently on stock 14" rims with Michelin XM2s. Planning to upgrade my rims and tyres to either 195/50/r15 or 205/45/r16. Just wondering whether the car will be very bumpy if running on 16" or its better to just upgrade to 15".
I've also heard about Neuton NT8000. A lot of good reviews regarding this tyre. Anybody is using this tyres here?

Hi all sifu,
I'm deeply seeking some advise from you guys regarding my wheel.
I'm driving a Toyota Rush 1.5, 7 seater. Original rims 16" with 215/65R16. Current tyres used Silverstone. Somehow it cannot be balances and damn it...its a hard tyre.
I planned to change to a 17" rims. Any idea what kind or size of tyre that suitable for the weight of my car? and also the diameter can be same with the current.
Please feel free to advise.
