205/50/15 on 8JJ rims. Damn sad the words are small and the YOKOHAMA word is not at the direct opposite of the ADVAN NEOVA word. My Toyo R1R looks nicer painted sad.gif

Looks aside, these tires seems to have better grip than my old R1R. Not too sure is it due to the size up or due to the tires itself. Noise wise, it's way more silent than my old R1R's and DEFINITELY more quiet than my old NS2R's. Hopefully these should last longer than my NS2R's as well.

The NS2R is cheap at RM200-220 a piece, but they seem to only last me 3~4 months which is half of what the R1R lasted me. Hopefully these AD08R's will last me at least a year.

how much was 205/50/15?

and seems like 8jj may be abit wide for the tires... they seem to be stretched just a wee bit.

RM395/pc for the 205's. Well, usually I run 195's and honestly, 195 tires feels better on 8jj rims than on standard 6.5/7jj rims. It really changes the feel of the car and overall grip feels higher with sidewall flex feeling lesser. But then again, If you're on 8JJ, putting on wider tires would increase the grip even higher i guess laugh.gif

This is how my old R1R's and NS2R's 195/55/15 look like on 8jj

Yeap that's the one. Then you need to tekan the tip to let the paint flow out first mia. Only thing is that from a distance it'll look good. close up the paint all cracking mia after jalan laugh.gif

What I meant was with the current size tires, upsizing the rim somehow improves tire performance for me. You try change to 8jj with the same tire see how lol. How much you got yours?

would love to upgrade to 8jj wheels... but the 8jj wheels here are with dumbass offsets... id rather stick to my ori 5Zigen 15x7 +33 wheels...and with the 2mm spacer up front, im already having fender scraping issues...and i have to use the spacer due to the 4pots i just installed.

got my tires for RM365....but theyre not AD08R la... theyre 595RSR...the wheel n tire setup is damn nice for SIC though thumbup.gif

Yeke? I see most 8jj 15" all have roughly the same offset. Mine the offset is +25 and I see Nestum here sells it for RM1.2k for the original Enkei Tuning SC22 laugh.gif Me still using original disc and calipers. What 4 pots you installed btw can fit in 15"? Those mini-4 pot ar? sweat.gif

595RSR eh? Hows the treadwear on those? The usual place i buy my tire say that he no longer brings in Federal due to the high amount of customer returns for bulging tires sweat.gif

know of these wheels already...was looking for something locally...now not.interested in 8jj anymore...coz I would be limiting my tire sizes n tire choices...even 205 looks a lil stretched...n hard to find anything above 205 in malaysia for 15"
