QUOTE(soyusa @ Mar 16 2012, 11:54 AM) Haven't drive in wet environment yet? i will update later....wait for it...Appreciate your input on this...  Added on March 17, 2012, 2:36 pm1 of my wajarian fella currently using Hankook V12 and GY assy directional 5...according to him,hankook v12 is better grip... Added on March 19, 2012, 2:00 pmupdated: XM2 wet grip is also GOOD.but make sure ur alignment and chamber setting good too...some v shape tires also not so stable...but this XM2 give me confidence...just drove from JB/kota tinggi/mersing/kuala rompin yesterday...in JB area,quite heavy rain from The Zon...only from pasir gudang the weather is ok...so i had enough distance for testing.

QUOTE(noprob @ Mar 27 2012, 08:06 PM) anyone on accelera ? dun go for that tyre la...u will regret if u buy it. when u do alignment,it is hard to get good align tyres u know...sure lari to 1 side esp to the left...  some of my frens told me if their customers come for alignment and if the tyre is accelera,they know that it's gonna be a hard work...for wet,it sucks.so value ur life...spend more ya... |

QUOTE(turbocharged @ Mar 27 2012, 07:15 PM) Bro, F1A2 and PS3 are literally king in the wet. yes...xm2 is an economy tyre,for long lasting...however,the grip on wet is far better than those accelera or achilles tyre from Indonesia.even Dunlop D-01 also not so good in wet...XM2 vs CC5..XM2 is better...at least these is my feedback for these tyres.i used it b4...haha...yes,i used accelera and achilles b4 so that i can comment..hihi...go check tyre review. F1A2 the best for wet grip. see, it got so many first place. Xm2 is economy tire. for fuelsaving.

some incidents during night driving from kl to kuala rompin for so many times via kuala pilah/keratong/muadzam...resulted in me having enough confident with this tyre.yeah,there's a lot more tht can out perform xm2 but is just not too bad also...i do not say tht xm2 is the overall winner rite?
