Yes thats what i meant. I did an approx assumption based on mileage for 6 mths.

Thanks for the idea but I'm afraid it couldn't fit at front because the front fender gap not that wide...nicely fitted with 16" 45....



Thanks for ur advice...it's just hyundai getz 2005 (not inokom)...



Wow thank you...what a relieve...I have another question...let's say my tyre got "benjol"...is it safe for long journey?will it going to explode?

Thanks for your time guys...

Hey guys, im thinking of changing my stock persona tyre soon. currently on continental cc1 if im not mistaken. i regularly travel jb-kl-jb. maybe around once a week or twice a week. what are my options? prefer comfort and quiet. Sometimes hit 150kmh on hway. not really a spirited driver haha. budget less than 250 per piece. Thanks alot!!

last month i asking at Hin Leong jln kapar, kelang for my fren persona..for 195/60R15 tyres:-

Michelin Energy Xm1 - Rm 225/pc (been replace by Xm2 oledi)
Bridgestone turanza - Rm 225/pc
Falken 912 - Rm 185/pc
Yokohama A.Drive - Rm 180/pc
Falken 322 - Rm 160/pc

i've been thare to replace my wife myvi's tyre to Xm1..really feel huge improvement over stock sime astar tyres

So the XM2 will have the same price as XM1? Are those tyre brands in the same segment? I mean for performance or more towards comfort. Been reading bout Continental Comfort 5 as well..

all of them just normal street tyre though...i dont know bout the price of Xm2 but i recon it will better than Xm1 in any way IMO..somehow i think Xm1 make my wife myvi much more 'comfort n silent' than the stock tyre

i am on CC5...in fact...it comes standard with my neo base line...

comfort = yes!
spirited driving = not bad

maybe i drive slow mo...but other taiko sez its lousy for spirited drive but good enough for daily drive car from point a to point b

Go for the Michelin XM2. U will not regret at all. If ure in KL, change it at Lim Tayar in TTDI. I can tell you who to see.

if you're on 205/45/16, stick with it. there are far more choices with that size compare to 205/50/16.
instead of changing the tires, you may play around with suspension to increase handling and looks.
btw, it's not advisable to go for long journey with bulging tires. do not risk your life.

hi guys,
im planning to get new 16" sport rim for my alza,
which type of tyres shud i get, 205/45 or 195/50?
my fren said if use 205/50 will hit fender
i prefer comfort & quiet. sometime for long journey(balik kampung)
please advice

thanks

Hi bros. =D
Getting new 205/40/17 for my old city. What brand out there is hot ah?
Looking forward to ze502 and ze512. What is the lowest price I can get for these?
Any other brand recommended at this price range? Like rm200-rm250

if budget permits, should i go for michelin primacy lc or just xm2?
i prefer quiteness, decent grip for occasional spirited driving and also some balanced comfort.
looking for size 195/60R15. was quoted rm1200 for all 4 pieces of LC including labor charge by a tyre shop (big michelin sign board facing sprint highway) in Damansara Uptown. good or can get better bargain at TTDI?

Can we mix different profiles like 205/5016/ front and 204/45/16 rear? or vice versa

delang@
how much is your budget?
not too sure about alza but if you want comfort, the stock tyre / suspension setting is the best.
205/45/16 might be okay for the looks but make sure to choose a tyre with less stiffer sidewall.
as mentioned, xm2 might fit your bill. else, yokohama a.drive or continental comfort 5 for relax mood.

BryantNg@
250 budget range is too low for a 17". you may end up getting lousy tyre
even the achilles atr sports might not fit into your budget.

dARKaNGEl@
xm2 is newer than lc. hence, xm2 should be a better buy mainly due to the improves grip.

fazron80@
much depend on your ride. performance cars does not use identical size to compromise on weight , power
distribution and handling.
while standard sedan car usually use an identical size on 4 side!
either way, if it was the fwd, to compensate for the differences in performance and speedo reading,
you could use one with minimal different on front and another size on rear.
in my case, am using 225/45/17 front and 235/45/17(spacer) rear. but mine was rwd, anyway.
more for handling but make sure to keep an eye on alignment / uneven tyre wear..

btw, you may not have the luxury of being able to rotate the tyres.

thanks for ur reply,
as my fren said 195/50 is less noise & more comfort. im not sure about that.
my budget around rm200 or below. can i get tyres within this budget?

btw im planning to lower my alza

tq

I was thinking of changing rear to 205/45/16 from 205/50/16. Because rear tyre is hitting fender. ALready put in the the coil buffer. No difference. So a lower profile tyre might fix the problem.

for 16' size the price per piece are around rm300+, lower rm200 maybe not possible to found..

already did some survey, most tyres found below rm250. the lowest i found was rm175(falken)

I change from stock size 195/55/15 to 205/50/15. When stock never happen like that.
