not cheap oh... and not that easy to find in most shops...
actually the AD07s are not that bad in wet... maybe in the extreme wets where there are deep standing water it suffers a bit lar... but it still should perform well in both dry and wet conditions as it is still meant for street and not competition use...

i didn't have much tyres that last me long enough.. my current set is a el-cheapo Continental Comfort Contact... bought around same time now last year and going to change soon... the kevlar going to pop out soon... roughly 14000KMs... did not rotate front and rear... just left and right once every 2 or 3 months... if i did front and rear... i will need to change the whole 2 pairs in another half a year or so... now i am only changing 1 pair...

noise level considered ok
grip so-so (dry)
grip considered not ideal for many (wet)
price - cheap
value for money - excellent (at least for me tongue.gif )

Hi all, need some tips on my Kenari, I naver change typre from original, its nearly 7 years now  blush.gif , original is Goodyear, front ones are very very light liow. What would be good replacement? 165/55 R14 type, not planning to change the rims.

I'm thinking of getting Bridgestone synergy m5 for less noise and fuel efficiency or another set of Goodyear. I don't drive the car a lot. Price around RM200 each is my budget.

Thank yous!

Hi, I'm thinking to upgrade my tyre..
currently using GY NCT5 195/60R15.

is it adviseable to upgrade to 205/50R16?
the grip is improve abit(actually i'm satisfy with my NCT5 grip). but the tyre price is very very huge difference.
Michelin Premacy LC
15 = RM 280
16 = RM 410

Another thing.... if compare Premacy LC vs XM1, which one is better? i prefer more quiet tyre but the shop guys told me XM1 have better grip than PLC? As he said during raining, the PLC grip is very bad and worst than NCT5
*
is tat guy 100% sure or not? ? primacy lc is a higher range replace mxv8 n yet he dare to say lower range xm1 is much better than higher renge tire then there's no good tires edi~

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Mar 3 2010, 09:52 AM)
i think 195/55 R15 better comfort... but if you want better handling then 50 series will be better, both of the tires can fit ur ride... smile.gif

primacy is higher rating than XM1 n it's 195/60-15
lowest i've found in klang ard rm260



QUOTE(sleepwalker @ Mar 4 2010, 04:34 PM)

bro CheeAnn... not sure about the news la... PS2 is max categories so PS3 should be also... but as PP2 replacement is a bit out lo, coz PP2 only UHP leh... the price for PS2 is not cheap and also the size is form 17" if not mistaken (am i correct?)...

wah price for Primacy LC hike so much already ar... i ask ur shop last time around RM250 last year around Feb or Mar... klang i ask last time was RM230 nia...

sorry to tell u tat pp2 is not d max out cuz pilot sport3 is a higher rating than pp2 n if not mistaken price is slightly higher also~

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Mar 5 2010, 10:54 AM)
nah bro... those who scare of FC means their car engine is not that powerful enough... all they wan is stylish as you know that a lot of Ah Beng here put 17" and use some cheapo tires... i saw a lot of times wira with 215/40 R17 but fitted with duno what brand of tire... sweat.gif wanna look nice only... don care whether it's performance is on the par or not...

still remember 1 case... 195/55 R15 on Vios told us he is using a good tire already woh, but in the end i know he is with D-01 tire  ... sweat.gif well i can say that is a decent normal tires... even Bridgestone MY-01 is a crap for me... ER30 ok ok only...
so guys... wanna change bigger rims do NOT complaint about the FC on the tire
