using these on all four corners, grip levels are lowww.. especially in wet weather.. pls drive very carefully if u have these fitted. its alright but definielty never try pushing it. and it advertises comfort and low noise. first of all in terms of noise.. its just the same i didnt notice a diff, switched from worn out ecopia ep200. in terms of comfort yes, but i find for this comfort the sidewalls are extermely soft and therefore i am always hitting my car bottom on bumps and road undulations.. so have to pump to higher than recommended psi from manufacturer and ended up no improvement in comfort at all.. sigh.

i didnt buy because of budget constraints.. i bought because they advertised supreme comfort in terms of low noise.. which was just absent! grip levels also can be so low one meh.. if this competes directly with xm2 and ep200 now(ep300), and nano energy3, ive used all three and they still manage to provide adequate amounts of grip whereas this cc6 is just too far off. to even call them tires would be a stretch.. my traction control system is working overtime now after fitting these tires .. bangwall.gif blink.gif cry.gif

Hahaha ok at least you know now and did not get into any accident due to that shit tire! Next time when selecting tires, prioritize on grip performance first ahead of noise, comfort or whatever else coz those are just secondary criteria while grip is the main criteria that allows your car to stay on the road!

If PS4 is available for your size and you have the budget for it then by all means go for that, no need to mess around with the mid-range 3ST anymore. The 3ST is also already an old tire some more and just so-so only. Rather than 3ST, if you want good value for money tires, then go for Hankook V12 Evo2. It's the cheapest of well proven UHP tires, even cheaper than top brands mid range tires like 3ST but yet it closely rivals PS4/3 in performance and it's pretty silent too. I just got them for my wife's car, that's why I can highly recommend it.

K117 is the S1 Evo2, which is the asymmetric version of the V12 Evo2, so I'm not surprised it's good or even better! The S1 Evo series is one of my target tires to try also from Hankook. smile.gif

Buying tires does not need to always buy at your mechanic ma. As long as you get good stuff at good price at location not too far then ok already lor. PS4 only rm30 more than 3ST?? Then no brainer la, much better and newer performance tires vs aging just so-so mid range tires! But in terms of noise, let's just say PS4 does not excel/win in this area in any tests I've read (but it doesn't mean it's so bad either). What size are you using and how much your mechanic are offering you the PS4?

Same here. (not Vios though)
I guess it is nothing wrong.
It does provide more "comfort" and less bumpy feeling.

i guess is the same for every1 whoever using CC6

it looks under pressure from certainn angle. For this new tires, during the first 10k mileage i always pump it extra 2psi. As the tires is way too soft and compromise on my handling big time and it also could be the tires just fresh out of factory for 1 week then is installed on my car laugh.gif .

After it gone thru the heat cycle now almost reaching 20k, the tires ridiculous soft feeling is gone and handling is not as bad as it started. Could be due to the rubber starting to harden due to heat cycle.

btw, my driving is 98% highway constant 100~110km/h and 120 sometimes.

Just changed 4 tyres to CC6 in Nov., 17. Got good discount from Lazada single day, for slightly over RM900. Coming from XM2, this tyres are soft indeed. The handling & cornering fall behind XM and may be fuel consumption too (because accerating feels lag). As others, the noise and comfort is good.
Still prefer, Micheline if not the price is almost double of CC6. XM almost last me 5 years and 150,000Km.

You're already having good practice by installing tyres of similar thread on an axle.
Tread patterns on front and rear axles need not to be the same.
