Can read this for reference, got both tires in comparison tests. I'd say go ahead try the S1E3, you won't go wrong with it.

Hankook S1 Evo 3, best value for money now and well proven as it recently won 2021 Auto Express UK comparison tests.

Hi. need recommendation on tyre replacement 205/55/r16. was using hankook v12e2. Looking for something that has similar performance and price or just a bit of downgrade. Not into PS4.

Posted this on Mazda3 thread but thought here may have other feedback...

Time to change my tyre after almost 3 years. Currently the stock Toyo clocked about 45000km and starts giving some sound in the carpark when turning, probably an early indicator.

Considering Primacy 4 or Pilot Sport 4.. I can see there's a lot of comparison but still can't visualise if Primacy is enough for me. Was thinking of PS4 all the while (safe bet) but if Primacy is enough for my driving style, may wanna try the touring option for comfort (yes, top 2 reasons are wanna try out how big is the diff of comfort and noise reduce while not severely sacrificing high speed handling).

My usual style is....
+ 130 to 150 on NKVE, Elite or MEX straight road (dry with little traffic)
+ 110 to 120+ on the highways above (wet)
+ Slightly reduce speed on highway cornering (more during wet. There's once I unintentionally went into those on 130 during rain, skid for awhile. No more 130 corner during wet from then)
+ 70+ during highway exit corners
+ No fast cut into Hairpins, very careful on hills
+ Max hit 170km, only once in my life. A few 160s, but usually stays below 155

Not sure if Primacy can handle the above? Or need Pilot Sport 4? Toyo Proxes T1 Sport and PS4 are both AA traction while Primacy is only A....quite worry if it's severely affecting my confidence especially exceeding 130km...

Not to say can't survive with reduced handling as I had been on Myvi with XM2 at 130 too, but confident level is extremely shaky so I don't reach above 140 that time. Only stays around 120 to 130. So just try to stay at 130 to 150 with confidence, like the Toyo have given me (very good wheels on handling despite noisy and bumpy)

Appreciate fellow forumers advises, thx!

P/s: btw is the above consider "spirited driving"?

Would like to upgrade to 18".

Get the PS4, more suitable for your driving cuz you seem to like driving a bit faster than average especially in the wet. That traction rating is for wet traction btw.

Don't, cuz even on your 17 is already pretty thin profile at only 9.7cm sidewall height. Upsizing to 18 will require you to use even thinner profile of 215/40/18 with only 8.6cm sidewall height which is waffer thin! You will feel every nook and cranny, bumps and cracks on the road, so will be harsh and uncomfortable. Plus that size is also not that common so will not be as widely available selection. You can opt for slightly thicker 225/40/18 which is common size but it's quite a bit bigger rolling diameter than your 17' (by about 1.3cm) which will make your acceleration feels heavier, plus the sidewall is still under 9cm.

So in summary, just stay 17.

Oh, does it mean that on dry, both PS4 and Primacy perform about the same? Usually during Wet I will be extremely cautious.

No, PS4 is also superior in the dry.

If you're around Shah Alam or Klang, can go to FW Pro Services in Taipan, Setia Alam. Otherwise search in FB or Mudah.
