34 is a tad bit high, consider lowering it maybe 31-32 and observe more.
the trade off for fc would be compensated by more comfort

Hi guys. Does such thing as imitation tire exist? What I mean is celup tire but using well known brand and selling it as the brand price as well. Because today I change my stock tire on Persona which is Continental CC1 to CC5 but the CC5 doesn't look as grandeur as the CC1 and it left me wondering is it not genuine or what?
The asst mechanic say not to worried because the tire come with 1 year warranty but I still doesn't feel comforting looking at the tire. If there is such thing as imitation tire, is there any way to spot them from the genuine one? This post has been edited by lord_aminkin: Mar 1 2015, 11:52 PM |

I'd changed my Rear Tyre to micheline PS3 months ago and are very satisfied with the performance. I'm going to change my front tyre soon that now it's having loud noise and wear off soon enough too.
Any recommendations that is good to fit for front tires that will feel comfortable when turning the wheels?? |

Sifu,
Looking for tyre for my car size 195/50 R15 I've went to a couple of shops and they gave me a few choices below is the list Hankook Ventus V2 (H457) Continental CC5 Bridgestone Ecopia Goodyear Triplemax Kumho Ecsta Goodyear Eagle NCT5 Can give recommendation on which is suitable as an all rounder? I also like to take corners quite fast so would like a tyre that has good grip. |

Hi guys, just bought myself some second hand AMG rims for my Mercedes 190e. Currently looking for some tyres to go with it. Was using standard 195 55 r15 with the standard Mercedes Rims. Looking at Goodyear Eagle F1 and the new Dunlop Formula D05. Preference is 205 45 r17.
Where's the best place I can get the tyres with a good price? Also, looking for a place to paint the rims as they are a bit dirty. Appreciate the help! Scirwode |

If you are looking for absolute maximum dry performance you will be looking at extreme performance tyre such as Advan Neova AD08R,Bridgestone RE71R,Dunlop ZII*,Toyo R1R,Kumho KU36/V720 etc |

QUOTE(ADJ @ Jul 31 2014, 06:08 PM) Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2 looks interesting. Comfort biased, high threadwear rating (500), and not too expensive. the tttrttthttp://www.hankooktire.com/global/passenge...ble-2-h452.html US survey: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/testDisplay.jsp?ttid=173 available locally.. I enjoy them on my Kia Rondo wearing on 225/45R18. Very comfy ride and I hadn't felt bumpy most of the time. It feel like on 50% sidewall tyre with air pressure 33PSI. Very positive, solid grip on the dry / wet road. Low noise on rough road below 60km/h. Quite on concrete and smooth road as quite as my previous 3ST. A very good value for money product. They were also very competitive on price. |

NCT5 will make a loud noise after about 1000km, avoid it if you can, try viking pt05, dunlop D05 or even maxxis e1, these good tyre but less known.This post has been edited by myeddylim: Mar 16 2015, 09:20 PM |

My rear tire had punctured and fixed with a rubber plug before. Is it safe to rotate the wheel (front-rear rotate)?
How's the tire rot? The worker in a tire shop said it's fine. ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by Skylinestar: Mar 17 2015, 01:56 PM |
