QUOTE(6UE5T @ Jan 10 2017, 08:00 PM) Either you have an alignment issue to finish that tire in just 16k km, or you drive like nuts all the time!  alignment not done right, according to the other tyre shop. lesson learnt burnt a small hole in my pocket

QUOTE(Jason @ Jan 12 2017, 11:15 PM) To be fair to the RE003, it was due to the alignment being off. How does the Nitto compares with the RE003? i prefer nitto actually, noise level the same, but handling better imho. i drove re003 on other cars before. but during rainy days nitto is better a bit compared to re003, but still kenot go super fast la.

QUOTE(haziqk10 @ Jan 13 2017, 08:45 AM) I saw AD08R going for rm400 for 195/55/15 size. Consider good price? Should be much better than RE003 right which is what im using right now. Get Fleva, about RM220 each for that size, thread rating higher than RE003. Aiya, LYN got few famous sellers, depending where is your location nia. End of the day, you get wat you pay right? Give me a pair of 4D number, I go buy jackpot then I can buy AD08R

QUOTE(Jason @ Jan 13 2017, 12:36 PM) How you feel rainy its better? Track better? I do agree with you, RE003 isn't bad in the rain but it could be better (PS3 trumps RE003 in aquaplane resistance and tracking on corners.) Nitto, not familiar with their tires. erm, roughly e.g. subang exit form ss19 to federal highway. erm nitto about 100-110, max 120 can go in and out, re003 about 90-100 km/h before slight skidding happen. if rain minus 10km/h each. that's how i test kua since i go in and out there quite often.

QUOTE(haziqk10 @ Jan 13 2017, 03:00 PM) Ah ok. Will look for Fleva reviews. Also is it normal that I had to fill in pressure for my RE until 34 psi instead on recommended 30 psi for my car cause I feel like the tyre is too soft when im cornering. i fill about 32-34 usually, depending on time of the day i fill. that one ask your tayar shop, easiest. btw, i am using adjustables, high low 8kg front 4 kg back. car for sale as well cos need to move to auto due to gf kenot drive manual syndrome
