Where was that?

I was quoted 539+6% for 205/50/R17 at Tan Chong service centre.

advisable go for 215/45 easier to find tyre.205/50 quite rare in market also.plus it is expensive.
215/45/17 rm390 in another thread,some members they have update price.

Hi guys,

The original tyre is 215/45 Michellin Pilot Sport 3. Currently warn out, time to change new.

Went to Michellin tyre shop said PS3 no more production and ask me buy PS4 which is RM434 per tyre.

Anyone here know any shop charge cheaper ?

Which mix reviews, can share?
Alternatives are Continental CSC5, Goodyear F1A3, Pirelli P Zero, or Hankook S1 Evo 2 if you want cheaper one.

Thanks for your recommendation.. I just based from user experience and some of them from this thread... you can correct me if I’m wrong, comparison to ps3

- road noise louder
- fuel consumption increase
- wet grip in ps3 better
- felt harsh on the road
- less rims protection

- road noise louder: the noise rating published for PS4 is actually slightly lower than PS3.
- fuel consumption increase: this is possible since PS4 gives more grip & performance. PS4 is meant to combine between PS3 & PSS. When Michelin came out with PS3, many who had been used to PS2 were a bit disappointed coz they feel PS3 dropped a bit and had gone too soft. So with PS4, Michelin goes back to be a bit more aggressive/sporty tire. More grip usually means less FC.
- wet grip in ps3 better: PS3 has been very good at aquaplaning resistance but sacrifices a bit its dry grip (hence the complains of previous PS2 users of PS3 ultimate dry performance). PS4 tries to improve the dry grip and therefore might marginally loose a bit of the aquaplaning resistance but wet performance is not about aquaplaning but also grip on wet surface when there's no puddles and this should be at least as a good as PS3 too if not better.
- felt harsh on the road: this is possible since PS4 gives more grip & performance, with stiffer sidewall.
- less rims protection: this one not sure, maybe.

As for reference you should read more professional reviews from reputable magazines that compares tires with proper drivers and proper equipment with the same car in similar conditions. FYI during PS3 times, Autoexpress UK had compared it with many other top UHP tires like CSC5, P Zero, F1A2, etc2. and PS3 ended up behind CSC5. Then after PS4 arrived, again Autoexpress UK did the same test between PS4 vs those other tires but this time PS4 came out on top beating CSC5. So using the same SCSC5 as a reference point, I'd think that means PS4 overall is surely also better than PS3.

Recently just changed to PS4, and I do agreed that this tyre has lesser rim protection compared to my stock tyre.
So far I am impressed with the performance of this PS4 tyre.

PS3 also did not have much rim protector, so not surprised if PS4 follows the same. If you want thick rim protector, then try Goodyear F1A2/3.

215/50 and 225/45 jumps higher than 215/45 which is almost rm 100 difference compare to 215/45.approximately rm 480-490+
if your car can fit 215/45 then it would be more worth.haha

Is it worth it? If what you mean by worth it or not is that you're looking for best value for money, then I may suggest to check out Hankook V12 Evo2. My wife's car is currently using this tire and I'm absolutely happy with them! It will not be as good as the PS4 BUT at least it is the same level of true UHP tire (got some other tires claiming to be UHP class but actually NOT!), performs almost as good, and at a much cheaper price. For your size, you can get one at below rm300/pc like example below:
https://www.mudah.my/Tyre+tayar+205+55+16+h...o2-58846012.htm

HOWEVER, if you have the budget for PS4 then why not?? I certainly would! Coz arguably it is the best UHP tire on the market now, and fortunately for you it's also still available in smaller 16' sizes (many other top UHP tires like GY F1A3, CSC5/6, P Zero PZ4 are only available in 17' upwards). So if you do want to enjoy the best, then by all means go for it while still can! (Coz the trend of high performance tires seems to be bigger and bigger sizes, so in the future you might not have a chance anymore to try for such excellent tire at smaller sizes). Price for your size should be around rm350/pc like below example:
https://www.mudah.my/Tayar+Baru+Michelin+PS...16-58109499.htm

Just to help you further to decide, below is the latest review involving these tires compared together with 3 other top level tires. The PS4S (the higher version of PS4), won the comparison test but the V12E2 was not too bad either, even able to beat the more highly regarded GY F1A3! Note also PS4 is like half a step below the PS4S tested there, so you can kinda gauge that the gap between PS4 and the V12E2 won't be as much as in this test.
