QUOTE(turbocharged @ Mar 12 2012, 05:30 PM) F1A2 if u see the review, pwn all UHP tire. ( for both dry and wet) F1A2, Ps3, F1D5,CSC3/CSC5. 1st one F1A2 is the best, and PS3 so on. the rest are pocket friendly, but in the wet must be careful. those 4 above are emphasis on both dry and wet. but, they are not cheap  the rest of the tire, just dont drive so fast in the wet, all should be ok. hell yeah they r fukken expensive lol...i'm not driving porsche or lambo 2 begin with so no need la...hehe...i'm thinking of getting either F1A1, V12, PS2, c.drive or CSC3...any feedback?i will b sticking to stock (205/55/R16) profile...not sure bout pricing for F1A1, PS2, CSC3 and c.drive for this tyre profile...initially thinking of getting t1r but mostly review say t1 sport good wor... |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Mar 12 2012, 06:28 PM) if you got the dough, you can look into advan db instead of c.drive 2. additional nano compound, more complex treading design. main features of less rolling resistance and superior reduction in NVH (the c.drive 2 is basically a cheapened/scaled down version of it after all) how bout s.drive?i'm referring to c.drive (not sure still on sale or not)...not c.drive 2... anyway my budget not >400/piece for sure lol... |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Mar 12 2012, 07:07 PM) s.drive are more for performance. and if you want good wet grip too, these are not for you. they are better on dry grip. comfort wise its nothing to shout about. c.drive is vastly inferior to c.drive 2. no point to look back to c.drive and i guess advan db is out of your budget hmm...how come i see review on c.drive better than c.drive2 lolz...not sure wat's the reason |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Mar 12 2012, 07:36 PM) c.drive have better treadwear, and probably slightly better performance. however it defeats the purpose of marketing it as a comfort/silent tire. C.drive 2 excels much more in that, at the cost of treadwear due to very soft compound. if you're not a very heavy driver, it matters not as you will need to change your tires around 3ish years even if the treading is still good as rubber ages and hardens under weather conditions anyways. hmm...not sure if my occassional spirited driving style can b categorized into heavy driver haha...if i driving alone (true for most of the time) surely hantam the car one... |

QUOTE(eddychstu @ Mar 13 2012, 07:05 PM) Think about it, Toyota Altis is a family sedan and it's recommended for comfort drive, you don't need to spend a fortune to get the 'best' tyre that costs rm500 above so that you get the extra grip to speed >180km/h Yokohama have some nice series that floats arn 300+ to 400. A drive R1 & C drive is decent enough to pair with Altis, with softer compound means it will absorb road noise so you get a even quieter driving experience. ps: you change rim + tyre already void warranty so why not just change the entire suspension? err i think i said somewhere in the replies that i'm looking for below 400 lolz...and yes decent ones are priced 300+ to 400...actually i'm getting tyre which can grip well during rain and fast cornering, and feels stable while cruising at high speed...i know altis is floaty and not good in fast cornering...and yes i'll b installing bars...for now i can think of those brands and corresponding series which are <400...at least i think...i duno the current price for some of them since there are no price info on them in the tyre price list topic... lol entire suspension will even cost more swt This post has been edited by yamasce: Mar 13 2012, 08:37 PM |

QUOTE(eddychstu @ Mar 13 2012, 08:56 PM) fast cornering + safe = low ride = new suspension.
