It all depends on your speed. If u r cruising at 110-120kmh, definitely u can get above 550km..

yes, you need to service every 10k or 6 month, whichever come first.

for those who change to PS3 tyre...no regret at all. i have been using from day 1 (straight away change it after getting a car) ...now its almost 1 year 5 month @ 54k km. its very grippy and yet holding good on wet surface. very recommended.

yea bro.. my default preferable tires was always Mich MXV8 and then Primacy LC.. then with this Forte, I give it a try with PS3.. could immediately feel sharp handling and quicker maneuver..
with just a light tap on the brake, the car immediately slowing down quickly whereas the Atlantis V7 still gliding with delay stopping.. imagine of raining season with Silverstone.. even with ABS and TCS the car will still skid !! (experienced twice at MRR2 due to dumb drivers often emergency brake)

my only complain with PS3, roadnoise is quite intrusive into the cabin and gradually increases together with vehicle speed.. where Primacy LC I used with my previous TRD sportivo Vios tires still remain quiet at 180kmph with NVH of 60kmph..  whistling.gif

yes, it should have roadnoise since its ultra performance tyre. cant compare with comfort tyre, biggrin.gif ..i think that's drawback for getting a grip on dry and wet.. i will choose safety over comfort , need compromise a bit lor..since the tyre is the only contact on the road.
