I'm interested on 2 pcs 185/55/R15 and 2pcs 205/50/R16. Where you order the tyre? I checked with YHI Malaysia they only have stock on June. If your order can arrive earlier will be great.

How much per piece for this AD08r? I'm using AD07 and think to change new tire soon. My tire size is 215/45/17 (Honda Civic).
Thanks!

Thanks! as per http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=59663054RM58x normal price, i've already created a bulk thread for this tire and we should be able to get a much lower price

Seems like the AD08R price just slighly more than UHP tires...which is good news...
But i wonder, which part they cut cost? Is it still Made in Japan?

All advan tires are made in Japan AFAIK since it IS their flagship tires after all
