tried C drive before.. now using CC5 on other car.. i can say CC5 is more silent and comfort.. C drive is more sport oriented comfort.. but im not sure of the new C drive2.

for ultimate silence, CC5 cannot fight with Primacy LC which is premium comfort..

i just installed PS3 195/55/15 on another car as well.. very surprised with its performance & quietness!

guys, need some help. i got a huge puncture at my tire and looking at changing it. 225/45/R17. right now im using goodyear asy 2 due to its excellent dry and wet grip.

this is the 2nd time i change tires within a year. heard rumors that goodyear tires are not that durable. any recommendations? what other tires are comparable to asy 2 in terms of dry and wet grip and pricing? thanks!

goodyear tires come with warranty for both defect and road hazard (depending on model), so not to worry on durability.

But how does the warranty work?
1 for 1 exchange ? Or discounts on new tire purchased?

for defects case, the tireman will measure the thickness of your tire, and calculates the value based on percentage. then you need to top up $$$ to exchange with new tire after deducting the value of the old tire. example. RM375 (new tire price) - RM175 (your used tire value) = RM200 (amount you need to top up)

for road hazard case, i'm not too sure.

of course, you need to claim with the shop where you bought your tires.

Just changed re003.. for the price, dry grip is outstanding.. its up there with other max/uhp tires. In fact it is little bit better than ps3 especially handling.
On damp road it is quite good as well but do not expect the hydroplane is as good as ps3 (ps3 is one of the best potong air tayar). Just take it easy during heavy rain. Noise is moderate and acceptable. Comfort is surprisingly good considering its stiff sidewall. Less bumpy than ps3 too.
For the price/performance ratio, re003 is an excellent choice. But i've seen many comfort car using this tire and complain. I guess the owner chose the wrong tayar for touring application.
