from my experience,
if falken tyres, please buy either these 3 tyres model only, falken ziex ze 912 or Falken Azenis FK-453 or Falken FK-452, never ever buy low end model like falken ze 322, 512 etc..will make headache. except u realy tight on budget. for 192/55/15, u can choose only Falken Zeix ze 912, since the other 2 model didnt hve 15" spec. so far im using falken ziex ze 912 for my last Proton Gen 2. the wet and dry grip is superb. only the noisiness a little bit loud. but let it be more safe rather than more comfort. if u want safe and comfort tyre..need top up a bit ur budget, grab the Michelin PS3. last time bought ziex ze 912 RM200/piece since it is a very new tyres, some shop can give u RM180/piece depending to manufacturing date This post has been edited by diadokmai: Mar 26 2013, 01:34 AM |

QUOTE(nagaraputra @ Mar 27 2013, 10:34 AM) for 912,depending on the series, 60/65 can clock up till 64k mileage and 40k mileage for 55 and under series, my experience with 195/55/15 my tire can clock up till 32k mileage, its depend or our driving style too bro. azenis fk-453 dont try it yet since it only come for 17" rims upper. from the datasheet it show that 453 is ultimate high performance tire which mileage max can cloack up to 20k-30k only. |

Just go for Indonesia or China made tyre. Sure cheap below rm200 even for 16" and some 17"model. Look for brands like Corsa, Archiles, Goodride, Neuton, Singa,

My Bad..I copy Paste the Tyre List from the Tyre Price List Posted here..
I Like the Current Hankook as can bear with the noise as satisfied with the GRIP. Might check out CC5 and C Drive. |

Don't go for Yokohama A-Drive but go for C-Drive 2 which is much better. A-Drive is like entry level, C-Drive 2 is more for mid-Range.
If you want balance between comfort, performance and noise level, this is the best in your list. Should be about RM240+/- per tyre. V12 if u want better wet performance, but Directional Tyres tend to get noisy after it wears down. |

Continentals CC range are comfortable tires that wear quite fast. Quiet but soft-compound.
I've had bad experiences with Falkens. They wear pretty quick but don't provide much comfort overall. Yokohamas (c-Drive) are a good balance between comfort and durability. On a shoestring budget, I might aim for the Yokos. But that's just me. |

But that's just me. for tyre 15" rims below. yes comfort wise falken is worst. i never tried yoko c.drive2 but my last tyre before using falken ziex ze 912 is yoko c.drive. imo, im more to 912, since i feel 912 give better handling and better grip than c.drive.. and since im using 195/55/15 the noise level is still acceptable. last time tried on Myvi extreme with 205/40/17 of falken 912 tyre. the hell very noisy..haha currently im using car (preve) with 16 tyres..so maybe next time changing tyre, planning to grab yoko advan db or michilein ps3 if got enuf money. but if my money not enuf, will stick to falken 912 since it is a cheap tire (below Rm300 for stock preve tire spec) and i satisfied with it. even the stock tire for preve which is champiro bax 2 cost more than RM400..
