QUOTE(Cavino @ Feb 6 2013, 02:54 PM) Ini trolling ni........an answer which is no answer at all... Thanks for the input! While there are some tires out there ppl never tested......the famed ones here for stock size is either the more expensive entry level Michelin XM2 or my preference, the mid-range Yokohama C-Drive 2. Both has their pro and cons. If you like grip more, then C-Drive 2, cheaper somemore but if you like less noise more rounded but less grip, then XM2. Of course there are cheaper tyres outside but not reviewed here... Just came back from a tyre shop nearby; they have Continental CC5 RM230. What do you think about CC5? Compared to C-Drive 2? |

QUOTE(Cavino @ Feb 7 2013, 09:10 AM) While CC5 is also an entry level tyres like XM2, it has the same lesser grip. I can't remember but while initially review was ok, there seems to be some problem after that. However if you're already avoiding XM2 becoz of lesser grip, CC5 might be worse. C-Drive 2 is an mid range performance tyre vs these entry level, so grip is definitely a notch above them. However it has shorter tread life and definitely has a noise level that is a couple of notch higher as well. There's always a price to pay for performance. Thanks a lot for the input! I just checked C-Drive 2 at Kampar Perak. RM250/piece inc. installation. RM1k for four pieces. Probably will go to change later...or I go back hometown change hahaha.This post has been edited by davidletterboyz: Feb 7 2013, 05:39 PM |

Following inputs from members here, I went ahead and purchased Yokohama C-drive 2. The grip is really much better than my stock Silverstone Kruizer; especially when its wet. I also bought a set of used Elegance stock sport rims (mine is B-line hahaha). Total damage RM1350 inc valves, balancing, alignment etc.

QUOTE(jasontantenghuat @ Feb 19 2013, 08:10 AM) From full until warning light. That's not accurate, because the remaining mileage stated in your panel is also calculated from the litre/100km rate (which is not accurate because it's an average reading by using an unknown age of data set). I manually calculate it this way:After pumping full, the reading for the km remaining will be 550. I normally pump the moment the light come on, can reach RM 70+ 1) Fill up your fuel tank to full. 2) Reset your odometer to 0km. 3) Drive. 4) Fill up your fuel tank to full (if possible the same pump in the same petrol station). 5) Take the total distance recorded in your odometer and divide it with the litre reading from the fuel pump. You will get km/litre reading. So far my record is 13.73km/litre done on PE Auto B-line after 40k km major service. 270km of pure highway (110km/h@ ~3.2k rpm) + 200km (40-70km/h) + ~15 mins jam. You can also convert it to litre/100km from here. From my experience, the litre/100km reading in our panel is slightly higher. |
