QUOTE(xemoboyx @ Jan 27 2016, 09:21 PM) how is the sidewall stiffness on this tire? can it be compared to toyo r1r , or ad08 level? It's quite stiff. I can only compare this tyre with Michelin Super Sport and sadly, it's stiffer than PSS.  QUOTE(hafiez @ Feb 16 2016, 06:14 PM) a bit noisy-er than asym 2 Compared to PSS - noisier and less grip on wet. In the dry both are almost the same.less grip in rain than asym 2 treadwear 220 compared to asym 2 - 300 cheap  |

Sad to say, this tyre is not lasting... I had this on my ride for less than 10K Km, the thread left 40%. Note that I am only using my ride for daily use, not track use.
Try other brands I would say. |

QUOTE(6UE5T @ Mar 4 2016, 08:21 PM) Well the tread wear rating is on the low side at 220 so durability would not be as good. How is your driving style, aggressive or just normal? If other tires normally last how many km in your hands? QUOTE(Ancient-XinG- @ Mar 4 2016, 09:27 PM) wa.. how you drive o?? Most of the time - normal. I am driving a ride on everything that's stock. My other donots I had used when it was stock was the Conti CSC5 with ContiSeal lasted around 50K KM.Me around 5k still new to me.... Another 2 donots were Michelin Pilot Super Sport - already done 15K KM (used longer than the RE003), still looks like it has 60%. |

QUOTE(6UE5T @ Mar 6 2016, 10:18 PM) Ya, it seems your driving style is still normal and should have not worn out the tires as much as that even with a 220 tread wear. Maybe you observe incorrectly, should measure how many mm left. If just 40% left then only about 3mm tread left in the middle. I was told by my tyre guy while doing alignment and balancing. He said left 30-40% which made me shocked by driving less than 10K km. Worse than PSS. |

QUOTE(6UE5T @ Mar 7 2016, 05:10 PM) Then I think your tire man is wrong or trying to con you. QUOTE(xavi5567 @ Mar 8 2016, 05:08 PM) try take photo of the tyre with 20cent in the groove... then all will be answered...  QUOTE(Ancient-XinG- @ Mar 8 2016, 08:46 PM) I suspect he kena connced by his tyremen No worries guys. Whether my tyre man trying to con me or so, this is my feedback on what I had experienced. When I have the time with my car, I will definitely snap a picture. |
