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 biggrin.gif

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 vmad.gif

there might be a problem in your car balancing/alignment. mine done 150km/h stock myvi on NCT3 without any shaking at all. that's NCT 3 which is below than NCT 5

maybe is alignment and balancing

Can anyone recommend me affordable tires for my myvi stock 14"?

Prefer something low FC friendly and stable. I travel highway between KL and Penang alot.

And should i change my stock 14" to 15" for better stability?

michelin Xm1 for highway use is good and fuel saving as claim by them

I tried to ask w/s to X-rotate my tyres twice but both times the different w/s say cannot x-rotate only can change front to rear or vice versa. The reason is that the tyre have arrow marking the rotation of the tread, hence if x-rotate, the tyre will be rotating the wrong way.

Is this true? Coz I see get alot of advise even saw a poster in some tyre shop that advised X-rotation

arrow thread tyres cannot do cross rotation, only front to rear and rear to front at the same side.
