Tried it. At most it's 15%-20% more quiet than the noisiest Korean tyres I had.

My size is 225/45/R18, bought it for RM430 a piece, found out Kedai Papan Klang was selling 365 a piece.

Nothing special, except for its amazing price. I should have gone for Michelin PS3 for better grip instead.

No comments on grip. I don't rempit with my car.

I suppose it's alright for its price, you will get better result by using that savings on interior sound deadening. I think that will cut down noise level more effectively.

Hi Mango,
Mine same size with yours. I changed it for RM300/donut, I trade in my new car tire (after 5 days) for RM160/donut, top up 140 per donut

now running for about 6k, so fat so good, quieter than my previous NCT5, may be next round I will try Primacy 3ST which could be even more noise reduce.

After riding on these tyres for about 40k km, below are my comments:
1. Excellent quietness on smooth road.
2. Exaggerated tyre booming sound on rough road.
3. Very soft sidewall.
4. Will wobble during fast cornering (>60kmh)
5. After 40k km, thread still looks good, maybe can last for 30k km more with proper tyre rotation
6. No comment about grip, coz not driving fast. But feels better dry grip than previous XM2

Changed all 4 to this recently, 215/60/16, for RM320 each. Seemed reasonable to me at the time as the price included balancing and alignment, but before GST.

But I'm not one to judge on the noise level, etc, so...
