PS3 should be more or less RM280, 296 is pretty high the last time i checked around 1.5 months back. Chepest i got was RM270. I don't recommend the Goodyear.

You should get the Hankook Ventus V12, RM205 at Tek Ming Sunway.

why don't you tell me yourself?

I've used the Hankook Ventus V12, and IMO, the grip level is on par as the Goodyear Eagle F1 Directional 5 which is around RM265. So if the V12 is on par iwth Goodyear's performance range, how you think their 'normal' range would fare?

I just got a set of these

http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Kumho/Ecsta-XT-KU37.htm

other alternatives are

http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Falken/ZE912.htm
http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Neuton/NT8000.htm

They are all decent alternatives for less than RM200 a piece.

For RM 170 a piece, not bad lar. I'm using Kumho, Falken 912 I also heard good things about it.

But my previous tyres were the piece-of-shat SS Synergy M5 that came with my car. So I am easily impressed whistling.gif

Falken ziex is grippy but as time goes by, its very noisy. If you can't afford PS3, try Bridgestone turanza. they are quiet and grippy during wet.

CC5 very soft tyre & fast wear, anyway good tyre. Other option try Yoko CDrive2(RM230) or Neuton NT8000(RM175), good performance & comfort.

You can used 16" rim as long as not too heavy(better if light rim) & don't put hard tyre. I think 205/50/16 is good for Waja with 16" rim & still comfortable, especially if you put good comfort tyre like Yoko CDrive2 or PS3 or Conti MC5 or Neuton NT8000 or Nexen N8000 & many more good tyre. Can try ask the seller here: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=947105&hl=

Hi, I am thinking of upgrading my rims but as I was told, I should my replacement rims should not deviate too much from my stock rims. At most 3%. Just wanna know what is the measurement of the stock rims? Using a 05 waja.
