I know but whenever I call the Dunlop shops they say factory no more produce. This was back in 2017. Hence I went elsewhere. If any users of 185/55R16 installed it this year please let me know where and how much. I don't mind trying this out.

do you mean the previous cpc2 (continental premium contact 2) doesn't feel float above 130km/h ?

How is the dry and wet grip compare between dunlop  d05 vs cpc2 ?

thanks for your feedback. I'm driving honda city  using 185/55/R16, but not much good tyre choices.

I'm using Goodyear Excellence, after about 3-4K wearout, it getting more and more noisy.

Goodyear Excellence has hard sidewall and felt very floaty when above 110km/h, but cornering is really good and confident. I'm using 32Psi for both front and rear, if I use less than 32psi, it doesn't wear out evenly on the tyre thread.

Did you try any other tyre besides Dunlop D05 and CPC2 on your honda city ?

Thks for the heads up. 👍 BTW can you confirm the manufacturing period denoted by YYWW on the tire?

My uncle suggest me to consider wider tyre size such as 195/50/R16. The handling should be better due to thinner side wall and with wider contact patch, the floaty feel should be reduce. But I don't prefer wider tyre because the car will feel heavier since it require more resistance to move due to wider tyre.

I didn’t use Yokohama 185/55/R16 before. But I used Yokohama A-drive 185/60/R14 on my old car before. It’s medium sidewall hard but so far I like that coz the grip is quite reasonable especially when new.

May I know how much psi you used during using cpc2 and current Dunlop D05 ?

As I know higher psi will cause the car to have floating feel when drive high speed at highway.

Wow... that is quite high with (240 to 250kpa) 35 to 36psi, definitely very bumpy/floating. You may need to reduce to 32psi, about 220kpa since the recommendation is about 32psi front, 30psi rear for Honda city manual.

Guys
I'm using Dunlop J05 175/65 since last May.
I've just realise that the tyre guy mistakenly fitted my tyred inside out(I can see the ''inside'' wording from the outside), can you advice is this will hurt my thread somehow?
thanks.

Hmm...be careful when driving. Normally recommended the pair on the same axle to be identical. Front and rear axle can be different tyre but on the same axle either front or back L&R should be identical.

Any comment on this tyre plan to change my stock tyre iriz
