Currently running on Goodyear Eagle NCT5( Stock tyres, damn noisy and uncomfortable), comparing comfort and noise which one is better between PS3 and GY F1?

my guess is most likely ps3 since comments/feedbacks it is softer than GY F1 A2 (assuming you meant A2 and not D5)

Since u mentioned about D5, how is it compared to F1 in terms of comfort? Noise? I am not really into max performance, only driving a normal car, don't need super high performance tyre biggrin.gif

D5 is noisy as the name implies: directional 5, and directional tires are typically noisy as they are also catered for performance (which the D5 performance is very comparable to A2 however at a MUCH cheaper price)

Allright thanks then, not looking for noisy tyres, the stock NCT5 is already damn noisy shakehead.gif

and that's not even directional mind you. hell some people claim NCT5 (or most entry level tires) being quiet laugh.gif

Michelin Primacy LC is very quiet to me, even PS3 also very quiet ( cannot afford the price, RM500 per donut for my tyre size of 205/55/R16 )..looking for some performance, quiet and not very expensive ( <Rm400 la if possible )

very hard already considering your criteria, perhaps can consider Yokohama c drive 2?
less performance (especially wet, just drive slower ya) than ps3, less treadwear, however NVH/comfort should be better smile.gif

Yup, will consider that tyre, my father's car is changing into C Drive 2 soon, i can get to test it laugh.gif and make decision.. The tyre wear on the focus is more compared to my other car ( probably due to the weight and torque ), if using PS3 i think 30k km need to change tyre already rclxub.gif
