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?

QUOTE(OC4/3 @ Nov 6 2013, 09:20 PM) What is you stock car specification?? Follow that will do  My stock car spec is 175/65/R14, new car is using this NCT5, after that I changed to Falken ZE912 with 185/60/R14, immediately I notice a significant improvement in road holding, traction and comfort however the thread ran out very fast. Now I'm contemplating whether to continue with 185/60/R14 or go back to original 175/65/R14... |

QUOTE(OC4/3 @ Nov 7 2013, 12:26 AM) When change tyre,try to keep rolling diameter as near to stock as possible Width also try to keep the same or go bigger(Don't deviate too much through,might result in hellaflush fitment or wide tyre narrow wheel fitment) Both is acceptable fitment In terms of comfort, which one suit better? |
