anyone can recommend tyre to replace the stock 17"? heard yokohama is good?

Tyre is very subjective. Even reading alot does not help you to make the right decision sometimes. I am still cracking head on which one to choose.

pls define "good".

hahaha...blum tukar ka??

good comfort, wear faster, soft, less performance

good performance, wear faster, noisy, decent comfort

good durability, noisy, lesser comfort, hard, less performance


i crap only

Belum tukar. Have not make up my mind yet. A friend is swearing by Assy 2 as in if the Assy 2 fail me he will jump off from KLCC. Bro Iz says MC5 is good for normal drive. I do think that my driving style is similar to Bro Iz. I do not have enough tyre experience. Maybe I just need the leap of faith? So I am in dilemma. Of course price is also an issue. Bro jeschong has gave me a contact. Suppose to be good price, but the quoted PS3 is 470 per piece including balancing allignment. So even if the trade in price for 4 tryes is 150 each, it will not really make any difference. I was quoted 440 else where.

your crap is good.

but...lesser noise is in which category?

btw...i also using MC5.

really senyap. at 120kmh; on certain road, wind noise is more noticeable than the tyre noise... (if u trust me la.. )

Can you please help to check what is the threadwear of MC5?

Hi Bro, there is another thingy on windscreen on my forte.. not the auto light sensor.. but KIA SA has already verify is defogger sensor. Cheers

if not mistaken 340...
traction is only A...
those PS3 or GY Asy2 is AA.

Does jeschong's contact sell GY Asy2? Whereabouts is the seller's location? Thanks!

No Assy 2. Michelin, Yoko, limited choice of Toyo (T1 Sport and C1S not available).

Ooppsss..Sorry bro,mis-given u info,my bad..but thanks for your info,as I learned a new things.

just change recently? wind noise become obvious and loud after change tyre. stock really no good.
really great improvement with MC5 even it is biasa biasa tyre only.


now i cannot satisfy with MC5 already after 10K mileage, when sudah biasa with the comfort and low noise, now heart keep looking for lower noise and better comfort.

Jangan lah buat saya tergerak-gerak hati nak tukar tayar...

last time i oso keep holding myself until 8K mileage

ur car still new and feel wow..
if u dont tukar and feel the better comfort, wait till 1 yr or 2 yr only change. really no syok feeling anymore.
more u delay, lower ur stock tyre trade in.
unless u travel a lot, <1 yr can finish the tyre thread.

looking at the good side, 2-3 years later maybe change new car already. save on tyre.

Hmm...I am thinking of the same thiing too. Since I will go do allignment at 10k km...might as well just change tyre right? Save on the cost for allignment My car just passed 8k mark.

mind to share the price you get for MC5? sound interesting to me.

Yea I hate the stock tyre noise on road.. but I think I can bare with wind sound...

i change at wangsa maju/sri rampai, 350 each include balancing and alignment, trade in 150 each.

i think place like klang or rawang can get cheaper, provided u live nearby

thanks for the sharing bro. at least I know the price range

Im from Penang actually.
