Just install this tyre at Teoh Brothers Meru.
Size 225/40/R18 (1316) manufacturing date at RM320/pc incl GST.

FOC balancing and RM30 for 4pc alignment. What a bargain....

compare my old nexen n8000 when new. I can say n8000 is more silent than v12evo2 slightly.

I think is due to tyre pattern.
*
yup, but v12 is more to performance type. So, comparing both performance wise. Which one is better? btw, how much is the nexen n8000 for that size?

I can't say much as this tyre only 2day old.
For Nexen N8000 everything is good when new but whenever the wear reach 40-50% this tyre is useless... for eg. Big yellow box like smartag lane, it will skid when little corner is made, and when go into straight it will trigger my ABS by applying normal braking. All this happen when rain. Dry condition no problem.

N8000 serve me around 1 and half year with 40k km, i was price at RM400++/pc. But nexen n8000 already stop production.

degraded alot once its around 50% threadwear for n8000? thanks for your feedback smile.gif but the price wise, hankook k120 is still way cheaper. i think k120 will be one of the best bang for bucks. biggrin.gif

I think rm280 is not included gst gua.

make sure you call them to order before you go there cuz they don't keep stock.

I asked in Rawang before. Was told RM320 for 215/55/17. I just don't remember for V1 or V2 only. It's either 320 for v1, 340 for v2 or 300 for v1, 320 for v2.

okay bro. thanks for the info. But i think i will go for v12. rclxm9.gif

Test every pressure yourself  (first pump to 40 psi then test if too bumpy then release 1 or 2 psi and then test again), you'll know when you find out the best tyre pressure (for your car).
For the grip in theory is lower psi better, but more risk of blowing the tire if pressure too low....
Im not using v12 but I pump my front tire cold pressure to 38psi, mine tire size is 205/55/R15 thumbsup.gif
Wait a minute, after doing some internet browsing, I just realized that V12 evo2 don't has 215/55/R16 size.... I'm very sad now cry.gif

Questions below not important anymore, because I don't have other choice sad.gif

Hi all sifu2, today i went to a TOYO tyre shop looking for 215/55/R16 tyre, when I ask about Hankook V12 he told me this tyre very expensive so no one sell it... is it true?? Compare to Toyo T1R, CF2 and NE03.

Thank you

I bet the shop owner is trying to brainwash you to buy their carrying brand. Obviously Toyo is much more expensive than hankook v12. Even the old tech T1R is more expensive than hankook v12 evo2. Not to say the new TR1. Some more, comparing hankook v12evo2 UHP with low category such as CF2 and NE03 is irrelevant. If that guy told this to every hankook v12 users, he will be doomed for sure. 215/45/17 for 270/pc. thumbup.gif
