Haven't use re003 yet, but was on re002 and now changed to ps3. Noise-wise i think ps3 shud be quieter, performance wise i dunno....but i expect somewhat similar. But price-wise re003 a lot cheaper...my 205 45 17 price difference nearly rm90 per piece.

And i expect ps3 to last longer...

Spec wise PS3 should be better in the wet with AA traction rating while RE003 might be better in the dry if looking at the lower tread wear and bigger block-ish tread pattern.

Good grip will not give you fuel efficient. But since you going to change 60 series tyre to 55 series, you'll feel the car can go more mileage now, since the reading will be more than actual km traveled. Syok sendiri.

RE003 or PS3 both will give you good grip, and better experience than your current tyre.

Yea, they change wrong size for you. Should be 195/55R15.

This size got many choices for performance or comfort.
Other than that 2 brands, you can also look for Toyo T1-R, or R1-R if you got deep pocket. Hankook Ventus V2 also an affordable choice.

btw what car r u driving ? cause weight of car also have some effects on tyre wear

Can, there are plenty tires like that. PS3 is actually considered to be one of the best all rounder tire in the market. If going big sizes and got bigger budgets, Michelin PSS is even better. There's also Goodyear F1 tires, very good all rounder. Usually look for tires with tread wear in the 200-low 300 and traction rating AA (UHP & max performance class tires) should give good dry & wet performance. But of course those extreme class tires which very much focus on dry grip ultimately will sacrifice wet performance as they'd need as much rubber on the road as possible, hence less grooves to channel out water.

Yes, your tire now is too big, should go for 195/55/15.

PS3 for daily use.. its more comfortable due to soft sidewall, good performance in rainy days, and silent too
RE003 for occasionally track day.. harder sidewall for good steering response, grip should be better then PS3, in rain should be ok with average speed 80km/h..

if ur car also for family, not recommended RE003, if ur car only for urself then RE003 all the way..

then from ur situation u describe, RE003 all the way.. its not like u have family yet.. fetch parents only weekend still ok.. summore RE003 cheaper by rm30-40 per piece.. but need to remember it maybe wear quite fast..

If its me, between the two, definitely the RE003 for me. Price to performance wise

RE003 Traction A & Temperature A only. Whereas PS3 is AA & A. And bear in mind the flagship for Bridgestone in passenger range is the S001, which is quite old already.

I used PS3, then GY F1 D5 and now RE003.
Hands down, best tire is PS3. It is the tire of choice if they were all the same price.

Between F1 D5 and RE003, the F1 is AA & A as well. Among all 3, the tread wear is the lowest on the Bridgestone.

I haven't been able to gauge the RE003 in heavy downpour yet, but for dry, it sticks. One thing is certain, its stiffer than both the PS3 & GY F1 D5. Noise I can't tell cause temporarily my exhaust is on full ah beng mode.

Between the F1 D5 and PS3, the most significant difference is the aquaplane resistance on the PS3, and how it is unwavering in heavy downpour. F1 D5 can get a bit jittery at times in the wet, but regain composure very fast. As for the grip in the dry (no, I didn't whack corners in the wet I'm not crazy). Both grips well, the difference is PS3 is linear, more gradual, you can feel it starts to understeer when it can't make it, no drama, no fuss, just chill. The F1 D5 starts to under sooner than the PS3 (same corner, outside my house, daily route), and rolls a bit more than the PS3, less precise feeling. Frankly speaking, for normal driving on public roads, they are both good enough, but the confidence in the wet for PS3 is well worth the price premium.

RE003.. I haven't whack enough yet, let it scrub in a bit. But initial impressions, stiffer/harsher than both. Among the 3 I feel F1 D5 more comfortable, quieter. And F1 D5 tread wear very the good, long lasting.

When I changed from PS3 to F1 D5, price difference was ~RM20 per donut. Now that I know how they compare, I'll choose PS3 cause the RM20 extra is damn worth it for the confidence in wet.

Then this RE003 came into the picture. For the price of 3 x PS3, I get 4x RE003. So here I am.
