How you know how many mm balance of your tyre?
New tyre for sedan also not until 9mm

Why install different tyre? Just install all 4 same tyre is better.

I don't know. But was told by service center. After recent service.

Need wait till end of this month only can get stock of RE002,
Tire shop PIC offer me PS3 which additional RM100 for two donuts over RE002, Should I just accept this offer?
RM100 I can almost pump two times petrol..

Extreme Performance Tyre is street tyre lah
Look at the threadwear rating of PSC2,it's 180 which is generally regarded as street tyre by racing organization around the world(140 or 200 threadwear cut off)
The original PSC is like 60 or 80 threadwear which make it a r compound
Look at the amount of enthusiast car with extreme performance tyre around(Federal 595RSR,Toyo R1R,Nankang NS2R 180TW version,Advan Neova AD08R,Hankook RS3,Bridgestone RE11/A etc etc)
It is perfectly safe to use it for street,just be more cautious when wet

which tire? pilot sport cup 2? only available on 19/20" good luck

i think higher sizes available too, really need to ask michelin as they aren't disclosing much except for their advertisement

PSC2 is meant for track usage, but yet road legal, and sits above PSS.

This video of their test driver shows the same Porsche on the road to illustrate that message.

Definitely not for normal drivers who don't exactly spend time on the track IMHO...

if want to purchase a older production new tyre, what are the recommended lifespan to consider after their production?

lets say, i wana buy new sets of tyre, and was offer a 2012 made tyre, is it still safe and use?

Yes can be used for street and it is legal to do so
Cautious in wet mean be more careful in wet
Tyre like that are not good when dealing with standing water
But if you are that type that always visit touge(mountain pass,think Genting) or track then compromise like that is worth it for its performance merit(Most enthusiast friend i know use AD08R or NS2R depending on budget)

R Compound=semi slick
Usually they are not really road legal and unsafe to use in wet
They have threadwear of below 140
Some example of this are Toyo R888,Nitto NT01,Advan A050,Hankook Ventus TD/Z221,Bridgestone RE11S and Dunlop Direzza 03G

i am changing 17" for the first time. would like to look for comfort tyres (and wet grip if allowed) with a budget of 300+ region.

know nuts about tyres and stuff... sifus, please guide this newbie.

btw, would you guys be particular about lug nuts? like most of the shops are selling replica alloy rays nuts that costs about 60-100 region. what are your thoughts about them?

Eventually go for two units of Michelin PS3 since RE002 supplier no stock.

sidewall indeed soft than RE002

surprisingly it Made in Germany..

How much bro?

HERE

thanks, the tyre corner shop facing the road?

Yup.

okok.. thanks again bro.

wah.. dem good Made in Germany.. should be better

hi guys.... what would you recommend for Peugeot 308? I believed the tire spec should be 205/55/16.

looking something is quiet, comfortable & good grip (mostly for city driving & occasional long distance driving)
