QUOTE(leekaisuen69 @ Dec 16 2015, 03:18 PM) dude... takkan u compare 300 threadwear sdrives against 180 threadwear ad08r??? i personally do think threadwear hav big impact on road grips. cause i've seen ferrari lambo's wif pirelli tires of 60 threadwear! hahaha.. i guess changing engine oil=change tires also. XD i'm not even talking about treadwear. |

oh amazon got zoom in/close up imagery  http://global.yokohamatire.net/products/sdrive.html oh here also. now, if you can eliminate uneven wear, you can also maintain distributed/even contact patch towards the ground that typically translate to better grip/traction so long the compound can take the stress  This post has been edited by Quazacolt: Dec 16 2015, 03:24 PM |

QUOTE(leekaisuen69 @ Dec 16 2015, 02:58 PM) so far i've used before ps3 re002 and f1. so far most impressive still ps3. even with threads well below 50% still grip nicely on dry n wet. most probably trying f1 or re003. im on archilles now. not bad for a super economical tires. can full throttle on genting roads, ofcourse my car no power la. hahaa.. but it lasts me like 10-12k km already well below minimum tire thread edi. Rather than Achilles, I'd go with GT radial for value for money tire. I've seen cases whereby Achilles ATR Sport 1 & 2 have the tread/grip compound looks shaven off and shows sign of separation after >60% usage.tq for the comment... much appreciated |

Yeah pretty much lol since left-right can be interchangeable. so longer lasting usage, right? But yes and no situation. Cheapskate me thinking similarly as you, however solely on performance, I think there's more there is to it when it comes to tread patterns being asymmetric or directional. |

Hi all,
I'm currently using 185/55/16 Bridgestone turanza er300. Someone quoted me 195/50/16 Yokohama bluearth AE50 with price RM270. Is this Yoko will give me the same experience as Bridgestone in terms of grip(Dry + Wet)? Is the price OK? Thank you. This post has been edited by Veron83: Jan 5 2016, 12:39 PM |
