Hi taikors,

I'm looking to change tyre for my Honda CRV.

I dont mind slightly noisier but must last longer amd reasonably good grip on wet.

Any recommendation?

Hope the price doesn't kill me.

Is the treadwear good? Comparable with XM2?

Has anyone ever successfully claimed against DBKL for type damage caused by potholes?
Any guidance on how the insurers handle this? It's not uncommon in Europe and the Auto Association support it as means to pressure authorities.

I've just had to replace my full set as the drivers side were badly damaged - fortunately not bad damage to the rims and as front set back set are different but it's an expensive item.

Prefer noise level>>comfort>>fuel efficient bla3
Currently using falken 912 and it was really really noisy due to its stiff sidewall i think.

The 3 patterns you mentioned, the yokos are mid-range comfort tyres while dunlop d05 and toyo neo3 are entry level tyres in its range. So in terms of performance, the mid range one would probably fair better than the other 2. But i'm quite sure price level would also be different as well

It really depends on your budget and what's your preference. If you're looking for something comfortable with some sporty performance, then the BlueEarth AE50 is ok. If you're only looking to replace your tyres cos it's worn with no specific preferences, then the other 2 will be fine.

However, Blueearth is just a series in Yokohama. They have the entry level as well which is the BlueEarth AE01. So if you're comparing BlueEarth AE01, D05 and Neo3, they are all about the same.

Can try Goodyear Triplemax or Efficientgrip Performance ( If available at Malaysia)

Dunlop LM704 also not a bad choice for economical.

Dunlop LM704 is for basic usage and economical tyre. So far no people complaint about this tyre. Well, with the highest speed of 100-110 km/h it should be no problem. smile.gif

You can try either BS Re003 or the new Yoko Advan Fleva. They are both in the same category as your PS3. I think both the models have them in your size

At smaller sizes, difficult to find a match for the PS3 in the wet at cheaper price range (in the dry there are already many other options). PS4 is already available and surely better but it will be more expensive. The other cheaper options are:

- Yokohama Advan Fleva v701: this one not really sure how it will stack up to PS3 especially in the wet coz it's still very newly released tire. FYI it has been used as the race tire in MTC Sepang series and the feedback I read from a reliable source in ZTH Forum who is closely connected to the racing community is that this tire is actually pretty good both in the dry or wet. Price also very competitive, much cheaper than PS3, so this is probably your best bet.

- Goodyear F1D5: this is also a very well balanced tire, very close to PS3 in both dry & wet performance. But like PS3 also has similar chipping problem of driven hard enough. I'd think this maybe your second best option here.

- Hankook V12 Evo 2: this is also rather new tires in Malaysia (even though has been released longer in other countries). Based on reviews on the web, the dry performance is pretty good but wet might not be as stable as PS3, not really sure. Price is the cheapest though.

- Bridgestone RE003: this one better in the dry than PS3 but not as good in the wet. The wet traction rating is only A compared to AA of the others above. It will also wear out much faster due to the low tread wear rating of just 220 vs 300-320 in the others above. So this might be your least favorable option.
