this tyre is really hard to find reviews. is it true directional tires are more noisy?
i am deciding between this tire and MC5 continental.
tire size 215/50/R17
Yokohama Advan Fleva V701, S-Drive replacement

QUOTE(6UE5T @ Apr 10 2017, 01:53 PM) People often said directional tires more noisy but for this new Fleva, the noise rating is only 67-69db so should be pretty quiet. thanks for the comment.This tire should be better than MC5 coz it's already UHP class which is 1 performance category higher than the mid range MC5.  I realized the treadwear is lower at 300, compared to my previous primacy 340, pilot sport3 320. |

Been using for 1.5 days. So far great tyres and highly recommended. Good grip on turns and quiet stable on the highway.
just waiting for heavy rain to test it out further. |

QUOTE(fwhoam @ May 12 2017, 07:55 AM) How much per piece? Thinking of changing 4 pieces include gst balancing alignment rm380. 215/50/r17. Wet performance is good too. Just need to wait and see how long it lasts. I travel around 3000 to 4000km per month. |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ May 21 2017, 11:58 AM) It cant be worse than PS3 because that is what I used previously. This is better than PS3 in terms of handling. Really dislike how the PS3 keep understeering although noise and wet performance is good. same here, was using PS3 and Primacy prior to this. I actually prefer Advan Fleva. |
