Dry grip of course cannot fight Primacy 3, but it is good enough for its price. Will be able to take bends faster than average slowpoke driver in KESAS exit bends, but don't expect to use it to full throttle performance level of PS3 lah.

Wet grip adequate, Primacy 3 slightly better/PS3 way better. Definitely better than CC6. With NE03, didn't recall ABS activate at the end of subang airport road (the sharp inverse ? bend near subang KTM end) wit NE03. NE03 traction A (same class as XM2 traction A), so it is not bad.

Noise wise CC6 is quieter, at the expense of wet grip, the treads are designed for acoustics reduction but sacrificed alot of wet grip because for that price point it is entry level pricing, you can't have everything and cheap. NE03 is not
noisy.

Thanks for those info, appreciate it. Do you think it is worth the money to also replace my front tyres which are only 1 year old with about 15000 km driven?

Too new to change although the fronts should be sround 70% remaining?
Would suggest to rotate the tyres around to even them out.

Follow ur car setup (front wheel drive or rear wheel drive); also this is assuming all tyres are same size..if u are using staggered setup ie diff frt and rear sizes like in bmw, may not be applicable)

Try ask shop to buy the used tyre and deduct it from your new tyre purchase. But dont expect they will pay good price.

Or else get the tyre to your fb marketplace

Just check with the shop, if its Kelly USA, if so its a well known brand in US and if Im not mistaken its subsidiary of Goodyear.

Im not sure if they have started to sell locally as well, since we have Goodyear manufacturer here

They'll just pay scrap value (20-30 each), in my experience I did trade in 2pcs worn PS2 before (still got bit more life ~20% left to mark) for a free alignment job (contra lah) biggrin.gif

It could be usable but wears off in one year (per my own exp with Goodride (not Goodyear)) - grip was ok but botak in a year. Hence not economical laugh.gif

In my experience, usually the unknown brand is difficult to botak. Example Achilles atr Sport 2. But the rain grip is almost zero, dry is ok. The treadware rating on most unknown brand is generally high, 480-500

I drive a Honda CRV 1.5 Turbo with tire 235/60R18 Bridgestone Dueler H/L 33.
Front tires are finishing soon. Was looking to replace also with Dueler H/L 33. But I saw this Bridgestone Alenza 001.
Is Alenza 001 good? Is Alenza 001 below or above Dueler H/L33?
Thanks...

Alenza is urban SUV tires, which is consider as 100% on-road SUV tires.
If you did not go to offroad and only on normal road condition this Alenza tire should be more better compare to H/L tires.
If not mistaken Alenza series is marketed as Premium SUV tires from Bridgestone.

Alenza not easy to find too. More common is D33 and cheaper Dunlop Maxx 050

Currently using Formula D06.

First impression is just okay. Nothing impressive. I think Yoko ES32 has more comfort than D06
