QUOTE(67zai @ Aug 9 2014, 05:57 PM) What kinda rattling sound? I m not sure, couldn't find the source, is near middle of front seats, just like sumthing is making sound... My driver seat issue, till now the SC havent call. Edit: I called them or the 2nd time (after almost 3 weeks), they now only told me that I need to take pics of my car and seats, and email to them so that they can inform HQ to request for the seats provider for appointment!!

QUOTE(titan @ Aug 12 2014, 02:08 PM) thanks for the reply bro. how much did you do yours for? and recommendations for coil mat?  Mine is cheap brand, about RM100 but quite satisfy as it didnt give me extra noise... I bought mine 2gether with Alteeza at Nilai too, 250 for one complete set (include the boot), but I heard most shops get selling it at 150 for boot and another 150 for interior. The size is bigger than ori and fit nicer but the workmanship of the shop is normal and so do the coil mat's quality, a bit slippery but still okay..

Hi all Elantra owners, as you may aware, the stock tyres for Elantra 1.6 is GY NCT5 which I feel a bit noisy. And I see some owners says changing it to a better tyre cn help reduce the sway feel too.
I know sum of u has changed it to XM2, PS3, 3ST, C drive2, advandb and etc. But wish to know, if these tyres really worth the change?
Personally prefer comfort/quiet tyre over performance (seldom got chance to speed over 110kmh, max pun 150kmh in dry, and in wet also wont go above 120kmh also). My budget is below 450 per piece of donut. Anyone good deal for the new tyres or trade in for nct5?

QUOTE(Dickong @ Aug 15 2014, 10:00 PM) I trade in my tyre the second day i got my car n pay RM450 for the michelin 3st tyre n that include steel valve, alignment n balancing. I see, quite a good deal. Got ppl quote me about RM360 for 3ST per piece, but think my trade in should be cheaper cos now already travelled for 1 month+... Noob question here, when changing to new tyre, do they use back the old tubes? do we need new valves? Some ppl say no need do alignment.. This post has been edited by Ekash: Aug 15 2014, 10:17 PM

QUOTE(leongcp @ Aug 19 2014, 10:23 AM) Ya replacement market (tyre shop) retail prices are much higher. The assembly plants buy this NCT 5 size around RM 120-140 per pc due to high volume order, without sales tax, etc. Tyre co no choice, make profit from retail market. NCT 5 is a boleh pakai tyre. Still better than Maxxis, GT Radial, A-Star brands. I feel its grip is not really good, even brake at speed around 40-60, it need quite a long distance. The selling price of c drive 2 compare to nct 5 is about 20 higher, so im not sure if its really better than it.

QUOTE(leongcp @ Aug 19 2014, 12:17 PM) Shop around and make some phone calls to several tyre shops to get an idea of the prices. U can consider Toyo also, some range quite affordable. NCT 5 braking distance is poor (although still better than the 3 lousy brands that I listed above). Wet braking also poor. Thx for d advice. Yeah,I did receive quotes from few shops and the trade in price for NCT5. It seems even for same tyre, the selling price also can vary by about RM70 each, and that's a lot to me. BTW, any sifu here got any idea on how GR100, efficientgrip or Primacy 3ST compare to NCT5? Will these quiet tyres perform better than NCT5 (some said it's performance tyre but from the bottom) in terms of dry/wet gripping and shorter braking distance? Any owners considering the change oso?
