Hi ppl, wanna ask some questions regarding tyres.
My Gen2 is a 1.3 unit, thus the original tyres size is 185/55/R15. (the 1.6 Gen2 uses 195/55/R15)

So, it is time to change now (tyres already 5-6 yrs). The tyre shop recommended 195/55/R15, which is pricier than the 185/55/R15. About RM15-20 more per tyre.

Anyway, the tyres he recommended were Continental ComfortContact5 or ContiPremiumContact2.

Which is better? Same price.

I need some advise on which size and which tyre model i should take. Thanks!

Same price?? CC5 is supposed to be the basic/lowest class, and CPC2 should be higher & better.

Yup, that's what i heard through the phone. Hopefully I heard correctly. LOL

So, if it is the same price, I should better go for the CPC2?

Yes, obviously, but make sure they give you relatively newly manufactured tires! Sometimes they have old stocks, hence they try to sell them off at cheaper prices.
