Ani good tyre to recommend for 195/55/15?
Prefer something like PS3 as it is a comfortable & quite tyre with good performance...
Quite durable also,but the price is abit high...
Something around Rm200 would be nice...
Max i would spend is Rm250...

Hi,

I read some review stated that Good Year F1 Assy 2 for Asia Pacific are all made in germany while F1 directional 5 are made in China or Thailand. Is this true?
If true then I don't have to survey tyre shops asking for price and where it's made in. sweat.gif

I am going to change tyre for 2nd time.
For first time, I has been conned to get 2 Silverstone tyre + balancing and alignment for RM500. After that only know the price is overprice.

In the Perodua book , it's say that my type specifications is 175/65R14. What is that mean? I'm totally noob here.

I am salesperson, so I do travel lot. What is the best tyre that suite my car and the price range?

it means the tyre width is 175mm
the height of the tyre wall is 65% of your tyre width
and the rim fit for the tyre is 14inch
*all legend2 here feel free to correct me*

stray from the spec size and your speedometer reading won't be correct. say u read it 80km/h, but ur actual cruising speed is 120km/h (just an example of course tongue.gif )
but who cares, right? bigger rim are a beauty to look at drool.gif

I think you mean Nexen la...I never heard of Nexus tongue.gif . Your budget is quite low for 17".
How about N8000 then? or maybe Achilles ATR Sports 2?

Lol...this argument had been around for so long laugh.gif .
No matter what size of tyres you use, you speedometer is always correct la. Its just that when you compare to the actual speed (maybe speed trap for example), yours is not accurate anymore. That is why recalibration is important
but not many people can do or do it .

Example" More than 4% upgrade, your speedometer will show about 4% different compare to stock tyres and actual world. But you car speedometer is still showing your correct car's speed(unless recalibration done after changes) as it generate the reading from gearbox or drive shaft rotation tongue.gif
The changes in tyres diameter affect the speedometer reading due to rev per miles different but no matter what, the speedometer reading generated always follow your car's speed which may not tally with real world speed.

a drive is yokohama basic entry level tire, cc 5 is same level with yokohama c drive 2.
general feedback is cc5 last longer however grip in dry/wet not as nice while c drive 2 has overall better grip however the treadwear doesn't last as long. AFAIK c drive 2 also slightly more expensive than cc5
