Hi to all

Want advice regarding my new problem. I just change 205 50 16 falken 914 to 205 45 17 maxxis ipro victra. As expected, noise is very significant n ride comfort reduce as expected.

What is the most comfortable, quietest n lowest rolling resistance tyre with good dry n wet grip for my next change.

Or do u have any suggestion to reduce my problem for time being. Im driving ford fiesta 2010.tq.

Good grip dont come with low resistance.. thats what grip is.. resistance..

You can always use Michelin PS3.. good allrounder... Probably around rm400++ per pcs..

Thx for the reply, if ps3, might be out of my budget. But if i only want the comfort quiet n low resistance, what tyre wud u suggest?

is it normal for new tyre to be noisy. recently chnge from advan fleva to hankook v12 evo2. done 200km.cant comment on performance yet, for now dry n wet grip not better than my previos set but 2 things im impress, the aquaplaning resistance n comfort.

nway, noticed 'wung wung wung' sound as i approach 40kmh, the sound repeated faster as speed increase. th noise will go off after 100kmh.

done alighment balancing n camber during tyre change. no vibration at high speed, tested until 150kmh.car also not lari one side if my steering straight.

any opinion?? i want to have little knowledge before i go to tyre shop, later scared they lie said nothing is wrong. tq

This is the tyre's resonance frequency that caused this noise, my car also similar, just the speed range not as wide as yours.

Nothing to do with the alignment and balancing of the car. You can play around the tyre pressure to reduce the speed range of this noise.

6UE5T you have this issue on the myvi and swift?

tq for ur resonse. this is my 5th change..as far as i remember never had this issue after changing new set previosly. perhaps this is unique to this tyre. this is my first time using hankook k120. will the resonance frequency faded after tyre break in. nway i will not noticed it if i really focus on detecting it/ when turn on radio.. haha..

I did when on 003.

90-100.

120-130.

Very very obvious wung wung wung sound. Only sound, no other abnormal findings.

Change to PS3, ranged at 90-95.

So yea, its the thread oattern etc etc.
