im looking for tire for stock proton waja. any brand to look out? falken ok? silverstone?
any recommended brands? tq

Achilles ATR Sport

abt RM180/pc

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

thanx for suggestion...if compared to achilles, falken and kumho..which more better? michelin how much?

im using achilles atr sport 195/55/15...its a good budget tyre...braking n cornering(within speed limit) is good...cruising at 180kmh also get a good feedback from the tyre...

but during my touge session...i can see the weak point of the tyre...the "not really want to stop" feeling are there when hard braking...but i never locked the tyre tho...

other brands that i monitor closely rite now is neuton NT8000...its about the same price as achilles atr sport...

michelin PS3 195/55/15 price around RM250 - RM280/piece.
if u lucky enuf. can get one at RM230/piece...

go for it bro, im on NT8000.. satisfy my driving style.. once i hard brake during rain, did not bang car front of me..

Bros,
falken ziex ze 912 or Falken Azenis FK-453 can go for how much millage?

Tq

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.

Tumpang Thread - I am also seeking for Tire 195/55/R15

I saw quite number of Brands which within the RM 200.00 Budget but cant make decision on which one should i go For and also can recommend me a good tire shop??

Below is my Study on the Tyre within Budge of RM 200 but difficult to choose the Brand and Spec.

Continental CC5
CONTINENTAL COMFORT CONTACT 5 85V
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo
SILVERSTONE NS700 85V
Yokohama A-Drive

Which one would be recommended by you guys based on Performance on Both Went and Dry

Current Car : Toyota AE101
Current Tire : Hankook Ventus V8
Usage : Highway + City (Min 70 KM two way)

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,

why 2x CC5?
also either hankook v12 if you don't mind the noise, cc5 or yokohama c drive 2 if you prefer to have better NVH

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.

-DOUBLE POST-

i used CC5 when i got the car...it last me fro 40k km before it touch the twi...

nice tyre...comfortable...but not really for touge tho...for daily drive? its a thumbs up!

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.

cant say the same bout c drive, however c drive 2 are the softest and worst durability when compared to cc5 (cant say the same with falkens since i've yet to experience them and i probably dont plan to lol)

falken tyre mostly focus on performance tyre. there is a comfort tyre which is Falken Azenis PT722 but unfortunate only comes for 16" upper rims. and the prices also high.

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..

ziex ze 912 is how much for 195/55/15?

last time i bought on my local shop cost about RM200/piece include balancing and alignment.
u can get cheaper if bought at bigger tire shop..usually will cost around RM170 - RM200/piece.

if u looking for performance plus comfort indeed yoko c.drive2. since many review said it is a nice tire. cost a little bit more than 912.

I bought at Klang in 2011 if not mistaken RM180. So now shud be plus minus la

Just bought Michelin X2 for mother in-law BLM SE car this morning.. RM175 each.. actually my intention was Falken Zeix Ze912 this shop offer RM130 each but I'm not lucky enough coz just 2 unit left... haa haa

But for 195/55/15 he has couple of stock, maybe enough for 4 or 5 car more... his price just RM160 each.... no kidding

here the reference.. even I first time go there also "no makan langsat".. GPS state Tmn Indah but his add shown Tmn Sri Endah..
http://www.lelong.com.my/merchant/qstyres-...-C2-90748-1.htm

The best thing, his has no hanky panky seller... I mean No hidden charges like others tyre shop..

That's freaking cheap for XM2 right?

Yes it cheaper <RM55 per unit compared to others shop & mostly tyre's make 07 (weeks) 13 (year)..

but for michelin quite costly too. i mean 195/55/15 size. was looking for yoko c drive 2, izzit AC02 is c drive 2? or c drive?

This post has been edited by cx2531: Apr 5 2013, 09:58 AM

btw at sri sentosa? near petronas petrol station?

AC01 = c-drive if not mistaken

Taman Sri Endah Kajang ? Jauh la pulak adoi

AC02 = is c drive 2? cheaper RM5 than klang tyre shop that i survey

ac02 is c drive 2, yes
got slight orange smell too if its really new tire lol (can also refer the sidewall/stickers on the tires)

why orange smell? thinking to replace c drive 2 instead of ps3 becoz too costly. cant afford >.<

If RM5 x 4 tyre = RM20 for me not worth it to travel to Klang. If more than RM60 then fine for me. Plan to change 2 front tyre but lazy to go to Klang. Looking nearby tyre shop

If I not mistaken C Drive2, range between A.Drive & S.Drive. Price state Rm205 could be Rm200 only, I only trust Advan Neova series for Yokohama.

Why not you took Falken 912 Rm160, it way better than Falken 322 & 522. Currently use 522 for Wish 215/50/17 & Wira 195/55/15..

Before I decide to go there, I pay a several visit to tyre shop around my home area Puncak Jalil, Bdr Kinrara, Puchong & Sg. Besi the lowest price I get RM195 for 195/55/15 was GoodYear NCT 5, others trusted brand would not lower than RM225 & this not include hanky panky charges yet like this nut that, chamber adj & etc...

This post has been edited by Oldskolboyz: Apr 5 2013, 11:03 AM

it uses orange oil compound

hmm. falken 522 and 912 review not that good. especially 522, so i dun give a try even i got offer for 195/55/15 only rm115 per piece.
but yoko and hankook not bad so i would like to try.

but i found out klang are more cheaper la. if compare between klang, rm5/10 are good because cheapest among and i stay klang too.

Tumpang thread, I'm going to buy a set of tyres since I just got a set of 15" rims.

In my local shop I saw there are two brands (excluding budget brands):
Bridgestone My-02
Falken ze912

which one is better for grip? I'm planning to drive hard on these tyres

EDIT: Tomorrow I'm going to survey at other shops at my area, see what other brands they have.

I thought RM175 for Michelin XM2 is very good deal? You mean Taman Sri Sentosa? Or the school Sri Sentosa?

wow...i heard really bad reputation from china tyre..not interested with it bro ...for indon tyre i may go for it..

wow...quite cheap..

is the thread for falken 912 is last long? well i dont expect much from comfort..as long the tire
is doing well on wet and dry is fine to me..

Yes Cheap edi to me after compared with michelin shop at my home quote RM218 each... diff Rm43 X 4 = RM172...
My advice, pay a visit tyre shop around your home 1st before U made any decision. If the total diff <RM50 (tyre cost), it not worth to go Klang but if above >Rm150 than Ok. This basic without hidden cost... U know & I know what is hidden cost are?

Location:

If you stand at Petronas..
Left Side + Petronas it self are Tmn Indah / Tmn Sri Endah
Right Side after empty land are Tmn Sentosa..

Base on my Wish 522 (Indonesia) can last <2 years, I use my wish as comparison coz Wish daily driving or even go to home town (Jerantut) & seldom drive to Lumut & Pasir Gudang. 912, if I not mistaken Thailand made & better than Indonesia made one.

my last 912 tyre for 195/55/15 spec last till 32k mileage. since last time almost every month travelling from KL to Kuantan and i usually speed more than 160km/h, maybe it reduce the lifespan of the tyre..according to brochure, for normal drive it can clock up till 45k.

like i mention before. the best cheaper falken tyre is 912, dont bother other model below it. 522 is much noisy than 912. tried on my bro waja, same spec.

and the flagship falken tire is FK453, but of coz expensive and dont have tire for small size rims.

ask the guy who bought, i planning to buy too

btw if cheaper each rm10 i also will go and chg. my location at klang too. btw batu belah there cost me c drive 2 rm 210. but i wan try xm2 or ps3 got better offer or not. btw do u got the shop hp number?

175 for xm2 is sure very cheap. but for best grip and performance, PS3 is better option.
xm2 more to comfort and last long. not for performance.

dont forget to check the manufacturing date. sometimes they sell cheap tire becoz of last-last year product..if now 2013, 2012 tire still consider ok. if made on 2011, afraid later the rubber elasticity not as good as new.

last time i bought 912, the tire is still fresh made. come fresh from factory. i still remember i bought it around 1-2months from manufacturing date. that is why i feel 912 is a great tire. some said 912 sucks..maybe they bought the old set of 912 tire..dont know haha

At the link I put in earlier post got the Shop name & phone number..

I've had two sets of falken 912 195/55/15 on myvi. Good grip in dry, normal grip in wet. First set I paid 155each and second set I paid 170each. Shop is speedline sungai buloh. Last around 40k the only complain is quite noisy, only slightly better than Goodyear Nct.

Just changed maxxis ipro the same size for another myvi. Paid 210each at rawang. Damn good in both wet and dry, initially wanted Goodyear directional 5 but most shop don't carry that and the guy recommend me maxxis so I just give it a try. No regret so far as the noise level lower, both grip and braking better than falken 912.

hi..just bought falken ziex 912 for rm165 per piece

WA ha,..cheap cheap. what size and what is the manufacturing date?

unfortunately the manufacturing date around august last year 2012..
im asking for new 2013 but the taukeh said it will arrived next month..i have no choice..i need to change it this month..
so i just grab it since the price is quite reasonable.. size 195/55/15...made in thailand..

yup..august 2012 considered ok. since the price quite reasonable. last time i bought mine made in thailand too. hardly find japan made.haha. u dont ask that taukeh about michelin ps3 price?

dunno boss bcoz i ask for cheapest tyre available..actually i want kumho but kumho not available ..but i ask yokohama around rm210 iinm..since my budget quite tight i go for falken..

what model yoko? cdrive2? with price like that falken 912 is very good for money. only cdrive2 give u better comfort than 912.

last week survey around my workplace to change tire. currently working in banting.

price:

Dunlop D01 195/55/R15 = RM170
yokohama A.Drive 195/55/R15 = Rm170
bridgestone MY-01 195/55/R15 = RM170
goodyear NCT 5 195/55/R15 = RM175
Continental comfort contact 5 195/55/R15 = RM175
falken ziex 912 195/55/R15 = RM180
bridgestone turanza 195/55/R15 = RM210

there are other few brand that they offer, forgot the price already. then, there is one shop offered me new tire brand, golden bridge. model GB500 which made in indonesia. by looking at the spec, it's quite good.. temperature A, Traction AA. speed rating is 85V. only treadwear a bit low. 300 only.can assume it's soft compound tire. the most tempting is the price he offer me RM155 only.

changed last weekend and already give a try at butterfly exit at putrajaya. more grip than falken ziex 912..


a bit noisy than falken 912. i guess it can last around 25-30++K KM only. now waiting to test the grip in wet condition.

kasi drill tayar satu...

design like my ATR sport

ya lah...look almost identical. treadwear ATR sport is 400...fiuh!

banting? which shop and nearby?
got phone number?

hi, your link there did not shown contact for this seller.. im wish to change xm2 also.. 2 piece.. tyre botak side alrdy

Don't even try Silverstone. Hear like branded.
But quality worst.
I had try it twice (due to cheap price RM135 ea), both use around 1.5 years, then abnormal noise become very loud.
After checked. Found 3 of 4 tire get "bengkak" for 1st time, and 2 of 4 tire bengkak for 2nd time.
Don't even try it.
The other tire shop said only this Silverstone tire got such issue.

P/S: I am mild usage on driving, 70km per day only.

Hi everyone, i would like to ask, if i am changing 2 front tyre, is it need to change back same brand with the 2 back tyre?

Hi anybody can recommend me a good priced + service in JB for 195/55/15 tyre?
The tyre seems to love to plank, and just realized the tyre botak d...
And just realize the tyre year was 2009 and 2006 made....
I just bought the car "second" 10 month ago, so kinda noob about car and tyre and overall...
So if anyone can advise a good tyre for my potong saga LMST 195/55/15 + good shop in JB please do
I think budget wise below 250 each would be ok i guess
i'm planning to change all 4 tyre, since the back tyre is 2006 and 2009
So i can safely assume the front is also 2006 and 2009 if the previous owner rotate the tyre...
(Because the front tyre inside is outside and vice versa........)

Please change all your tyres NOW if you value your life and that of your loved ones.

Some names of tyre shops in JB.

Please call them to ask about prices, models, etc.

Thanks bro for the info... Anyway, i got a quote for below tyre
Bridgestone ER30 RM176
Continental CC5 RM190
Goodyear NCT5 RM176

The fishy thing is warranty 1 year only for all tyre
(seems like he buys in bulk/supplier) but stated he sell 2013 make for this price.

Anybody can comment/advice/recommend?

CC5 and XM2 are comfort and silent tires not good for high speed and conering. PS3 is more sport tire and can be noisy, grip is excellent. Middle road would be XM2.

Thanks for the feedback.

So in terms of noise, XM2 is better than PS3? I want tires which are very silent. But of course not compromising too much grip.

Priority:
1.Noise
2. Grip

Any idea how much is the current price for neuton nt8000 for 195/55/15?

The branded brand is Bridgestone
Silverstone has no affiliations with Bridgestone, AFAIK.

just wanna share this figure. so it gives brief picture of the basic performance .

btw how much the price now? anyone can share?

yes..we do have it here

kumho ku31 around rm168/pc. saw it before in an adversitsement in lelong.
Not sure how does the rubber rides

Just bought Neuton NT3000 195/60R15 a few days ago.
RM185 per piece.

No idea on 195/55/15...

I'm actually keeping my eyes on Hankook on my next tyre change. Sick of silverstone M5, will never go back

For budget below 200 n size 195/60/15, any recommendations? Planning to replace all 4 tyres for my current persona, n prefer the one that last long coz im traveling a lot. If can get good shop name for installation tht would b great.

thanx

achilles atr sport 2, u can get at kl around Rm150++

check the tyre review from google, u wont get disappointed.

when it comes to performance only, ATR sport 2 will absolutely destroy the XM2.

you're comparing achilles top of the line street tire and Michelin's basic tire?
and guess what, Achilles is still cheaper than Michelin.

ATR sport2 only 17" and above le...

i guess u mean ATR sport or PLATINIUM?

then why you recommended XM2?

when it comes to good cornering, care to elaborate?
you do know ps3 sidewall damn soft and people that hard corners won't like it right?

and you sure PS3 help save petrol?

How about the new Goodyear Assurance TripleMax tyres?

no no no
