intending to change my wife's myvi tires soon. been researching which is the most 'value for money' tires and CC6 is always pops up.

However, I dont have that full confidence in Continental tires due to 2 reasons;

1. my ex boss told me his car (old waja) skidded and knocked another car during a wet road condition after just few months using contiental cc1, after that, he ban continental tires forever.

2. i just had an over-steer yesterday (car spun 360 degrees) in a wet roundabout (back tires CC5, 95% thread, mfg yr 2013 and front tires Dunlop J5 98% thread mfg yr 2016) while driving at speeds around 40kmh. (in an old corolla without VSC) blame the road got oil spill or is it tire problem?

Any comments on the wet grip for cc6? over-steering or skidding cases?

i drive my wife's car everyday. we carpool to work tongue.gif and my wife's driving style isnt slow either. brows.gif

so a safe, comfortable tyre is quite important. haha. currently the stock silverstone powerblitz although noisy due to low thread, has still reasonable grip compared similar thread level goodyear tires. does not skid or wheelspin easily.

If like that, please use Michelin Pilot Sport 3 or 4.. hehe.. ur life depend on it especially when speeding.. the braking distance shorten and the grip is marvelous, in raining i can say very good.. dry no need to say, maybe on par with RE003 or a bit lower..

I have used PS3 before in my dad's old waja. It was a superb tire even until its minimum thread.

Unfortunately, PS3 dont have size for stock myvi rims. Now no budget to change rims sad.gif

Someone asked for review before. Just changed a day ago.
AR10 before this.
First comfort and silence tip top, AR10 no fight.
But cornering bridgestone sidewall tougher, this u can feel slightly less confidence but if u r those typical average drivers should be ok. Unless u sapu corner at 80 90km/h at tight corners only will be an issue.
Also i actually like this wet handling more. AR10 actually keeps splashing water to the car itself , at big puddle sometimes the splash to the car actually shakes the car a lot.
Grip of coz more la tyre baru produced last week

guys, i got quoted MYR 210/pc at an authorized Continental dealer for CC6 175/65/14 for stock myvi rims. After i hear the price i was awestruck and halted my decision to change tires. The dealer claimed price increase 3 times already, they claimed the price was never lower than 190 since introduction. wth hmm.gif dry.gif

they say if want cheaper buy back silverstone at 170/pc or Viking at 160/pc blink.gif blink.gif

I got quoted RM170/pc for ecopia EP200 at a bridgestone dealer.

i will get quote for the CC6 from another few shops around town.

fyi, my location is in kuching, sarawak.
