Finally can update on this thread since my tires are almost up for a change. Overall, I'm quite happy with the tires for the price I paid and its performance. The noise level is still surprisingly good even when worn out, outperformed even my previous set of PS3. One of the tires (front right) has some tearing on the outer thread. Im pretty sure I have never driven fast on stones, otherwise all four tires will have the same cuts. Other than that, I really have zero complaint about them.

My cousin who had the same tires (after I recommended them) didnt fare as well as mine did. Im not sure whether its his driving style, allignment/toe problem, but both his front tires are bolded on the outer thread. Im pretty used to soft tires wearing out its outer thread faster but not this serious.

Im kinda inclined to try another set after the good experience but I will survey the market to see if there are any better deals. Saw Toyo TR1 and to be honest, the design simply scream "I'll be loud".

Thanks for the updates. "Bald" on the outer thread indicates Underinflation.

Are you staying in klang valley?

Or anyone here staying at klang? How you guys judge the noise of the tyre? The road conditions here is so bad. Whatever tyre also noisy.

New tires will be quiet regardless of road condition and tyre brand.

I think if you are used to UHP tires, then you will have a rough idea how they will sound when they are worn out. I started with the most noisy tires which is Eagle F1 (V shaped thread). Then to Michelin PS3 which is much better when worn out but now I think Fleva is even better than PS3 when worn out. The only tires which I tried quite long ago and really live up to the name is Falken ST115. It is really quiet but I dont know if anyone can bear with the 15K-20K mileage before totally botak even when you are just driving normally.

Opps, forgot to answer... I stayed in Kepong.

I used re003 and ps3.

For me same same only.

But when travelled on highway. Ps3 is better. Re003 once pass 20k mark, very noisy. But the drip is superb. Noise for me is minor. I want grip only.

And klamg road..... My god....... For the love of God. I wish I don't need to stay here.

If you really need the grip only, why are you complaining? You might even opt for those even higher performance tires.

Not complaining la.. just curious on the road conditions will really effect the tyre noise.

AD08R is extreme category and sidewall stiff coz got steel inserts there, dry grip is surely excellent but wet especially on heavy rain should slow down coz not much water channels. It also will finish very fast, even faster than RE003 I think. Definitely not suitable for comfort.  biggrin.gif

Depends on what you prioritise...

I want a comfort uhp and Fleva outperform PS3. For just pure performance, PS3 maybe better. Fleva screamed a lot when being pushed, while PS3 just understeer cool and calm. If I'm looking for performance only, the CSC5 on my wife car is miles better than both.

V12E2 should match V701 comfort and would give better performance too.

Yes CSC5 is an excellent tire, actually can still almost match PS4. Try the newer Extreme Contact Sport, even better than CSC5.
