thanks Chumpy...good answer you have there.... ! i guess i'll go for V12.... hehe...

Any user here bought V12 recently? just a quick check on the current market price....

Hahaha..Dunno..But 500 is high.

No prob bro..Last time (8 months ago) i bought the V12 for RM220 only at Ban Hooi Klang..

well...my friend told me tyre price went up already...

consider the yokohama c drive 2

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:11 amonly michelin ps3 for you, and i dont think rm300 is enough per tire

---

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:12 amif you count semi slicks, achilles 123 rofl

---

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:23 amif you're ok on the price, might as well stick to xm2.

dont think conti/good year would offer anything for your criteria, and yokohama's c drive 2 wears off fast due to really soft compound. if you have the money however, you can consider upgrading rims + yokohama's Advan DB

---

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:28 amif you need a tire that last long, c drive 2 is a definite no.

hankook's v12 may be ok, however do note that it is also a fairly soft compound tire.

harder compound tires you may want to look at bridgestone/michelin, or maybe look out on goodyear eagle f1 lineup

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:29 ammay i know how much air you filled your tires with?

---

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:30 amif you can afford yokohama advan db, by all means try it out.

higher profile tires may or may not improve noise, it will however definitely improve comfort as you get thicker rubber to go through uneven road/potholes/lines etc

---

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:31 amif you're not a spirited driver/drive fast, most tire mending/patching jobs will last you throughout the tires lifetime

however for the peace of mind, and if you do have the money/budget, it is always recommended to get new tires

Added on July 12, 2012, 4:32 ami never knew continental would be more expensive than michelin ps3? check out the pricing for yokohama advan db if you can find it at the shops you frequent to

Tried from 35 to 40 psi on the C drive 2, harder improved handling a bit, but it still sucks.

What size are you using?? Isn't it 35 to 40 quite high ?

thats what i was wondering too, im on 15" and i pumped 32 for all tires and there wasnt much bumpy feeling/instability, if any at all.

and yes i sometimes whack corners around 100km/h too lol.
any more then my car will tailspin itself because im still on 12 years old iswara stock springs and i have really bad body roll.

straight ways, ive driven at most 168 +/- km/h before
no issues, no instability. cuz lol straight way.

I have no idea how much to pump as I have changed size from 185/60/R15 to 195/50/R16, still I follow the manufacturer spec, front 230kpa, rear 210kpa

Funny thing is... Suzuki SC told me to pump 32psi for front and rear

continental max contact 5 noisy?
wanna change my stock silverstone

i thought you need to pump more when you upsize? lol

That is the thing keep bugged me quite some times. Theoretically we need to pump higher pressure if he upsize, but all tire man say 32psi is enough, I was confusing...

No need lor..just follow manufacturer specifikesyun already enuf becoz we measure air pressure, not air volume

size is 205/55/R16 as in earlier post....

Anyway at least most of the cornering issue has been sorted out after I've adjusted the wheels to have more negative camber. Still bouncy but at least controllable and predictable.

then even worse right if you go all the way 35-40? rofl

---

Added on July 14, 2012, 3:54 ami have negative 0.5-1 camber, not a whole lot compared to some other aggressive drivers out there. 32psi all tires. i think you might want to lower your psi to resolve your bouncy issue

really, the more you shed some light into this, the more it seemed like user fault over tire fault lol.
