I have trashed a set of N8000 previously and they hold on well. Just like ATR Sports, I have no complaint on N8000 as the price is cheap.

If you want something low noise, good rubber compound, superb quality, good handling, go for Yokohama Advan dB V551. Cost around RM475, look for "nestum" in Automotive Garage for best price.

Had mine in 215/45/R17 size, so far so good, really quiet.

Hi oec88,

Are you still using the AVAN dB V551 tires till now?

What is your comment after using it for 1 year++?

price have definitely changed. I believe it should be more than 300 each now.
I have been using them and so far been happy with them. Now looking for another new set smile.gif

I find nexen quite good and grippy but it wears out fast because it has a threadwear of around 200 only. I am currently using 265/30/19 for my rear tyres Nexen N8000 and it has lasted for more than a year with 30% thread left. That is around 30,000km of travelling for me

I just changed to Nexen N8000 245/40/18, my previous tyres were the more expensive Toyo Proxes T1 Sport, i noticed quite a lot of difference in grip.

I feel more confident in high speed cornering with the Toyo, but the tyres only lasted me a year.
