Im currently using Michelin Pilot Super Sport and need to replace them soon. Very happy with this tyre. Road grip and handling was excellent especially in wet weather. The tyre cuts through water very well too. But its very expensive and once the tyre wears, the road noise increases considerably.

Am now in a dilemma whether to replace with similar PSS or go for more comfort based tyres? The Michelin PS3 is also noisy but much cheaper.

I think the best choice between comfort and handling is actually the Goodyear Assy 2 which is made in Germany. This tyre also comes with 6 months Worry Free Assurance which guarantees a free replacement for any tyre damage.

Opinions please.

Advan sport v105 Will solve ur problem
Pss range, higher than f1a2 n cheaper
Rm730
Is the V105 quieter than the Assy 2? Best price i got so far was for Michelin PS3 from Hin Leong, Klang at RM600 per tyre (week 37).

which tests? Advan sport v105 was tested against many max performace tires and it's just a shy bit under PSS

PS3 is UHP which isn't the same level as Max performance category.

do consider comparing tires of the same category, and quite honestly no tires have matched up against PSS even until today.
The only drawback is the pricing which TS is reluctant to spend on again.
Ive got an offer for Goodyear Eagle F1 Assy 2 for RM730 per piece. But tyres are Jan 2013. Since these tyres are manufactured in Germany, i guess the age is fine?
