I just changed to Yokohama C Drive 2 ( 205/55/R16) my comments are..
1) Comfort, very good, I like it, most likely coz it's 55 series
2) Noise, good enough for me
3) Dry grip --- sucks big time, it's the most unstable tire I've ever used, even cheaper stuff can perform better IMHO. Since using it, I'm afraid of most corners, passing heavy vehicles on the highway, uneven road (coz car bounce everywhere)
4) Wet grip --- no chance to drive in rain yet, but judging from the dry grip, it will probably be the most dangerous tires I've ever used in the wet.

QUOTE(aming @ Jun 21 2012, 11:24 AM) dear sifus, i need some advise, my tyre went flat yesterday and i found some crack in tread nearest to the sidewall (50 cent size), the pomen said just tampal, i'm not really sure what he meant because he also said he couldn't do anything about the crack...i think maybe tampal the bocor and the crack still be there...rite?...the thing is i have a long trip tomorrow, should i be worried about the crack and better change for the new one today?the age of my tyres is 3 years and 5 months...already in warga emas age for tyre rite?it's ventus hr 2... got pics ?? otherwise maybe wrong advise you get since we all cannot see for ourselves. I think your tire guy will "tampal" the inner side of the tire to reinforce it and plug any leaks you have around the tire. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Jul 12 2012, 04:10 AM) may i know how much air you filled your tires with? Tried from 35 to 40 psi on the C drive 2, harder improved handling a bit, but it still sucks. |

QUOTE(sengasdf @ Jul 13 2012, 03:16 PM) What size are you using?? Isn't it 35 to 40 quite high ? 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. |
