Now only I realize that my GSD3, one is made in Thailand and another one is made in Germany. The Germany is harder and rough surface, the Thailand a bit soft and smooth surface and wear out a bit faster than the German.
MY-01 is super noisy, how about A-Drive R1? as noisy as well?

using falken ZE912, the tyres just half a month old, 185/60R14, very quiet compare to my old NCT5 and grip very good in wet and dry, in wet not as good as dry la  going to 140km/h still gt grip and stick to the ground and steering response still there, unlike the previous NCT5, shake like hell even with balancing and alignment done
