Hello all, sorry for the late reply. I have decided to change the new tyre Ecopia EP200, 195/55R15 bought for RM175 for four tyres, RM700 in total + RM20 Nitro Gas + FOC Alignment.

I am sharing my experience based on Bridgestone Potenza Tyre, which comes originally with my Vios previously.

Of course, comparing both of the prices, these 2 tyres are definitely 2 very big different range of tyre. It is not as stable as Potenza, can't cut corner as well as Potenza. However, if you talk about quiet-ness, it is definitely much better. I am quite surprised with the noise reduction after changing this tyre. I felt more bumpy & uneven road with this tyre.

I felt it was really value for money, factoring in the price I get with the comfort level I get.

My friend who change as the same time with me, driving a Pesona, has very big difference when it comes to consumption of petrol. Previously he was getting 350KM per tank, now he can travel more than 400KM, which I think is a great improvement in Petrol Consumption. I'm not very sure what brand he used previously, he was saying cornering, driving in the rain is much better compare to his old tyre. He is one satisfied customer!

I drove my friend's Vios with Michelin XM2, who also just changed this recently. I felt that BS EP200 is slightly more quiet compared to XM2, whereas XM2 has the advantage in cornering and stability.
