Guys need some suggestion on tyres that some of you are currently using on 17" .. 215/50/R17..
I am planning to get the Neuton but now the seller say no more stock.. Budget around 200 - 300+
Now i have both ATR and Neuton NT8000 on my ride, 225/50/17.
ATR bought around April, RM275 each for that size.. so far gone 16k mileage.
great grip while dry, so-so while wet, car will "glide" abit to sides if hit standing water on a straight road, but at that price i'm not complaining.
main qualms is the NOISE.. i find them very noisy... i travel outstation alot and noisy tires is bad for me.. probably won't go back to these tires unless i upgrade my soundproofing.
then last week kena nail and had to change 2 new tires, tried on the Neutons at RM285 each.
now i have these on my front while a pair of the better condition ATRs went to the back.
Just gone through 1500km so far and i like it more than the ATR, noticeably quieter, and more stable on wet roads.
corners quite well also but i haven't tried cornering full-out yet cause they not yet got run-in..
