choosing between all of them...ST115

Thanx for your reply bro.
Btw,any recomended above moderate performance tyre with rm300 below?
Size 215/45/17.

ani recommendation for UHP 195/50/15 tyre for me...?
prefer not so noisy & durable one...
have been using V12 & PS3...
so prefer something more or less like these 2...

Hi guys, am going to change tire soon, so would like to get some suggestion
Driving swift 1.5, not a slow drive but not wangan-style driver, love to attack corner, damn concern on wet grip, noise will be my last concern.

Budget: Max RM400 per piece

Currently using Continental CPC2 195/50/R16, what I like to comment about this tire is..
1. Cheap and cheerful
2. For the price you paid, it is perform very well
3. Wear is fast (Bought march 2011, now left 10%++)

So far I have few in my minds..

195/50/R16
1. Continental MC5, RM300 per piece, tauke said better than CPC2 in overall(Grip, silica compound, less noise, durability), sounds so promising
2. Kumho KU31, price not sure, seems to be a value-for-money tire except it is noisy and poor on wet
3. Toyo T1-R, price unknown, grippy tire as written on review
Due to lack of choices for above size, I did consider the following...

205/50/R16
1. GoodYear Directional 5, price unknown, had reviewed by TOM from ZTH using his Cooper S, I guess this one is more than enough for my ride
2. Michellin PS3, price unknown, everyone know this tire well, but for me michellin tire kinda overpriced for me

There are few other choices but not sure if size is available...
1. Hankook V12 Evo
2. Federal 595RS

I hope you guys can give me some comments on my options and suggest me something(Tak nak Achilles or china brand tire pls )

THANKS!

hmm.... bro, u can try hankook s1 evo perhaps thread pattern might look tame but there is hidden secrets beneath it

Yea I know about this one too, ranked higher than V12 Evo, available size is the matter bro. Anyway thanks for the info

Hankook V12 good for in wet and dry but no size for 205/50/16.currently use Yoko A drive R1.

wat hidden secret?


teach me?

hi mamat tayar botak

hi mamat tuhan

S1 Evo smallest available is 17 inch

Being used it before, quite okay, but noisy a lil bit

Now using Assy 2, braking distance is better than S1 EVO



Calling VR2Turbo to comment

oh btway i thought hankook has distribute new tread, S1 Evo 2 ? Any comment on this?

err u sure?

they actually have 16 inch la....

Not sure now though, on 2010 at my tire shop when I change the tire they said so maybe they lie to me at that time

Maybe afte S1 Evo2 out, they start producing S1 Evo with smaller size

ani other UHP tires for 15 inch...?
prefer around PS3 or V12 lvl...
budget Rm250 - Rm300 / piece...

anyone heard of hankook v2? not v12.

what about continental cc5? heard more bad reviews compared to good ones..is it really that bad?

i would like to know more about continental CC5 too...Changing tyre soon but tyre shop recommend Maxxis tyre for 165/55/14, viva size..donno good or not

Can recommend any 205/45/16 for Satria Neo. Thanks guys~~

CC5 is indeed a good tyre as my fren using it...
of coz not for spiritual driving...

hi all..
my tires are already 2.5 yrs old, surveying for new set of wheels. spec now 195/65/15 kia forte. looking at :

same size 195/65/15 - XM2

or upgrade to 205/55/16 - N8000

requirements : long lasting/quiet/comfort > FC > dry/wet grip..speed < 140kmh only..

i see many recommends C Drive 2 for average performance but soft compound will not last..

how about conti / goodyear..any advice from sifus..
