My friend changed 195/50/16 Continental MC5 and I on same sized Hankook Optimo.

Hankook wins on both handling and noise

2 years ago...200+ each, less than 250 I remember

Mine is E spec, of course BIG difference now in terms of handling. Genting corners I sapu je

If u take 195/55/16 or 205/50/16 would be even more stable I think, that size u would have to take the more pricey/sportier Hankook Ventus series

Optimo is more toward comfort

Used my Hankook 195/50/16 for 2 years and 47000 km. Time to change? Still feels fine though...but I scared tyre failure/burst

H11

Changed liao?

I'm using non-stock rim with 205/50/16, so far so good...quiet ride and nice feel

White Sage must be playing Pokémon

Safe driving - always look ahead, INCLUDING ahead of the car in front of u

I was on Hankook Optimo 195/50/16 previously.

Surprisingly, steering feels "lighter" with the 205/50/16.

Yet to record full tank in "normal" conditions, will update later. Cos past week ponteng kerja too much

RM180 for brake pads...reasonable ka?

Don't worry about opposite cars 1st, worry about your own visibility 1st.

Generally the whiter the light, the harder it is to see esp in rain. White bulbs (unless it's HID) are to look cool je.

I suggest max 4300K (Philips CrystalVision kan?) if u wanna look cool

For visibility, I suggest Osram Nightbreaker.

U macamana white pun no need scared, unless your lamp SUPER white until nampak biru, then maybe u will kena

Osram Nightbreaker still looks a bit yellowish, just A BIT white compared to stock ori

Go read JPJ guidelines (available online). Front lamps can be either white or amber.

JANJI BUKAN HID. If JPJ kacau u, u open your bonnet, say POLITELY, "tuan, takda ballast, bukan HID, ini halogen bulb"

If he STILL kacau u then he want kopi O, u ask him go eat sh*t

Your speedo reading will out, e.g. shows 100km/h but u are actually travelling at 105km/h+/-

Will look a bit too "big", not wide

195/50/16 better, cos the variance is lesser compared to 205/55/16, only lari by 1.3%. if 205/55/16, lari 3.7%

If u really wanna go 205, go for 205/50/16, it's VERY close to stock size.

I just changed to Yokohama ADVAN FLEVA V701, not bad, cheaper than Michelin PS4.

Quite quiet.

Handling not bad.

Wet grip, so far so good, no aquaplaning experienced yet.

Anyone of u had problem with the amber/yellow/orange brake warning indicator light? It lights up last week...then I had my car checked at workshop outside, brake pad worn...changed brake pad. But the light still won't go away!

Then I went to Honda to check, they said my "brake switch" wiring messed up when I installed some accessories, asked me to remove all my accessories (I only had a pair of tweeters and fog lights).

So I went to accessories shop to check, yeah indeed my fog lights tapped into the power source of the brake switch, so they fixed it, rewired it. Good, the light is gone.

2 hours later, it's back!

Any idea what is that "brake switch"?

Kena change?

Cannot totally off but can dim it, twist the stick at the odometer anti-clockwise to dim it.

Need problem diagnosis on my next service, brake have sound...which do u guys have better experience with?

Peringgit Old Klang Road
PJ Jalan 222
Kah Motor Puchong

They never layan troubleshooting on weekends wan la

Actually my experience, weekdays morning SURE crowded. Afternoon better

The best thing there is the kopitiam next to the Shell station and the construction site
