Genting/Cameron
Hehehe
I'm Genting based
Cheers

Understand tyre wear is bad
But how bad
5000km
10,000km
20,000km

Threadware rated at 100..and it kinda depends on your driving style..if you go Genting frequent enough and spirited/gila driving mode..I'm guessing (don't hold my words for it)..within 3-6months?

Can't compare R888 to PS3..2 different categories altogether...

Plus..it's raining season recently..on R888..please becareful wink.gif

And if you have no concern on the sound..then go ahead with the tyres..bearing in mind the above mentioned conditions =P

EDIT: I worn my RE001 in 8 months..thread rating at 220..so yeah..

Yes different category but pricing is near

Lol..that's me being siao kia laaa..go Genting and masuk track (once for that tyre lifespan) laugh.gif

But..that's what you get..less threadwear = more grip (theoretically speaking)

But I've got a friend on FZ201 with threadwear of 60..still going strong..I'd say about 60% +- threadwear balance since last year..provided he drive cruising most of the time laugh.gif
