Hi Sifus,

My tyres are Goodyear NCT5. Based on my record, usually after 50,000-60,000km (~2 years) I have to change to new tyres. Is this normal? I do rotate the tyres every 10,000km but it doesn't make much differences to the lifespan.

I'm approaching 50,000km soon and also, two of the tyres have a small bulge on the side. Is it dangerous to drive? Will it explode?

Finally, any good alternatives to Goodyear NCT5 that is longer lasting and comfortable ride?

Is this price list still being tracked and updated? If yes, here's my contribution:


185/60R14
Achilles 122 - RM140 each, STH Auto Sri Damansara (Oct 2013). Valve RM5 each, free balancing, alignment (when changing all 4 tires), camber kit + adjust RM45 one side. Rim dent repair RM60.

Best practice is to change both. But you can try changing one first. I've done it before, in front some more. No issues whatsover on my car when I did it last time save one tire

Hey thanks, anyway i just change one donut becos the other 1 still ok but wanted to trade in n trade in only RM90 n buy from them new one cost me RM375/pc. ( Goodyear Efficient Grip 205x55x16 )

u can find those info in http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/ , except for ME02.

personally ME02 noise consider acceptable in my opinion.

185/65R14 Michelin XM2, cost 200 each with free gift. I've changed all the tyres of my ride, so far the best mid range tyre I had.

hi all, noob here. currently using 175 60 14(i think, myvi oem). plan to change to 195 50 15. is this common size? easy to get tires? thanks

Anyone tried this shop?

http://tayaria.com/

My dad told me their GY Assy 2 215/45/17 only 410/pcs

I have been using the Falken ZE512 185/60/14 for about 3 years now... I found that it is a good tyre compare to the original GY NCT5, it is much quieter and the rubber is softer but I find it is not very good on wet road and the threads gone very fast...

Now, the tyres are approaching botak soon.. I'm currently looking for replacement for all the four tyres. However, I wanna try something different now, I'm looking something like the ZE512 with comfort, soft but I want it to be able to have a good grip on wet road and the threads should last longer as well.. Any nice recommendation?

may i recommend you Hankook Optimus ME02 ?
just change my dad's car to that tyre from Falken ZIEX.

what the shop told me that this Hankook have much better dry and wet traction + few mm extra rubber thickness.

dont know how true it is but so far my dad satisfied with the tyres. i changed all four sets btw.

unable to give u personal review as im using different sets and size.

How much ? Where is the shop location?

ohh, my location is Sungai Petani. somewhere in Taman Ria Jaya.

price i get around RM215/piece, size 195/50/R16.

maybe u can get cheaper.
