If the shop give you free alignment due to buying 4 new tires then just go ahead. If not free then no need, you can just try it first to see how your car feels after tire change. If you feel the steering is not straight anymore then do alignment, if not then why need to pay for it?

As for camber screws, again the same, is the camber measurements really out?? If not then why need to have? So pay attention to your alignment measurements and see if really need such camber screws, don't just blindly follow what the mechanic tell you because more often than not they will try to con you to spend as much as possible.

Ok.noted.they are provide free alignment if change 4pcs new tyre.so u means if the screen there got red color for camber ,then need install the adjustable screw to adjust the camber?

You need to see the measurements la, how many degrees camber, positive or negative also.

Is it necessary to do alignment and adjust camber after change 4pcs new tyre?even the alignment is ok b4 change tyre.if the shop ask to install adjustable screw for camber,is it need follow wat the shop said?

Actually you don't have to redo your alignment after changing tyres. Normally what the tyre shops will give FOC is only in the balancing but if they do give you free alignment, why not but if you feel your alignment is all good, you can politely reject their offer.

Adjustable camber screw wise, if its all okay, insist on not changing them.

Price depends on the size.
Made in Indo or Thai just the same coz they make the same spec tire, so just buy which ever you can get cheaper.

Hankook V12 Evo 2 also seems a good choice, maybe even better value for money.

Over here in Penang, it seems RE003 is much expensive than PS3 or even same price for 195/55/R15.

I've been using the PS3 for 46k and the front is due for a change. The rear tire seems to have at least 30~40% to go before reaching the tire indicator.

Actually, I wish to change to RE003 for a try. But, the price is not promising and RE003 thread wear is A rating only.

What is the other tire brand that can beat PS3 in term of performance?
If don't have, I would go back to PS3 then.

Yes RE003 prices seem to be increasing since end of last year.
Btw it's the traction rating that is A, not tread wear. This suppose to indicate wet traction though, not dry. The tread wear rating is 220.

Other option UHP tires that may match the PS3 but should be at cheaper price can be the Hankook V12 Evo 2 which just came in to Malaysia market around mid last year. Then there's the Goodyear F1-D5 which is almost as good at least in the dry and last long too, but maybe a bit more noisy and not as good in aquaplaning. If you can get at a price much cheaper than the PS3 though then it's still worth to try. Other than those, I think no other choices for the same high performance tires at that small size.

That's for Europe, we here have to wait for them to develop new compound for ASEAN market. Like how previously Primacy 3 after launched IINM almost a year later only they launch here. But for local market here smallest size sure got 15"
