just to share, i just changed two of my front tyre to this Bridgestone Ecopia EP200 (195/55/r15) on my waja for RM185 each in penang. don't forget to claim the rm30 petronas gift card if u change four of them.

reason to change:
-my previous GoodYear NCT 5 side face is tearing very badly. asked the mechanic, they say it is too soft to handle the harsh road

experience after change:
-feel the car is lighter
-when cornering, feel the tyre is not grippy enough on the ground, maybe im alrdy get used to the old tyre.

-feel lighter should means the rolling resistance is lower than NCT5
-not grippy enough should means the cornering ability is lower than NCT5

pretty much what i expected from a ECO tyre, which fast driving / cornering is not its strong point.

how about noise level compared to NCT5??

i dint notice the noise level of both of them, but i think both of them also not noisy. ep200 face design reduce the noise level and the softness of nct 5 probably also reduce the noise. overall i dint feel them noisy or maybe the waja engine noise is noisier then them.. lol biggrin.gif
