Likewise, for the western countries, asian cars are considered "continental" cars if apply our way of thinking

Already say "if apply our way of thinking" mah....

Anyway, back to the topic. Seems like i was wrong in predicting the CPC6 to be in our market by this quarter. Looks like continental malaysia would prioritise in saturating the market with the MC6, then only trickle in the CPC6. Not sure about those tyre shops that can bring in stuffs unofficially though...

I see....looks like i'll have to settle for the MC6 in the near future then since FK510 also won't be available here and the new pzero is just too darn expensive now.

I got quoted from import shop CPC5 195/50/15
Rm400 satu biji.
Make in EU.

the price seems like more expensive than cc6,
how is the performance?

OS autocare JB.
yes, special order.
CC6 does not related with performance haha
Anyway, my CPC2 last longer compared with CC5.
CC5 40k sudah botak
CPC2 can last until 60k.

yup but  i heard from my friend argue that continental tyres almost got problem..but i not sure this is true or not
so i recommend you choose other brand of tyre for using as safety purpose

really? but my brother using uc6, he said uc6 is performs well on wet road especially short distance braking,
somemore  i heard conti tyres made from germany technology and usually they have done safety test before selling their product,
so i dun think they would hv any safety problem.

MC5 user here. Car came with it, brand new and stuff. I can vouch that there are issues with bulging for this model. But then now they very quickly come out with MC6 and for me personally I would choose something else, either CPC, Primacy, or even eagle asymmetric.😅

How was the refinement? Is it harsh compared to the older tyre of your wife's car?
Is the MC series manufactured in Malaysia?

oh wow.....lower profile and wider than previous old tyre, yet almost equal refinement, sounds pretty damn good i say 

Anyone have any experience using continental and how many years did you need to changed your tires? Cz im using tires from kumho. Always problem. I think i need to find a new tires for my car. Pls. Urgent. This saturday i need to changed my tires. But pls suggest a cheaper one. Huhu.

It could be just the car, civic fc as the tyres are pretty noisy. That was one of the reason to change out of mc5. PS 4 also seems like no no as it is also kind of noisy. There was a test with fancy equipment and all last year that shows Pirelli p zero was quieter amongst the uhp tyres or something.

PS4 or PS4S is type from michelin tyre? how is the quality?

Its actually depends on how your driving your car when on the road. Im using UC6 . Is more better than others brand that im using. So far im using UC6 dont have any problems and also i can control my tires  very well especially when on the wet road. Hehe.

I bet conti premium contact series is much better than UC6
even old model CPC2

99.9% of drivers don't even know how the car is like at limit, let alone actually knowing the limits of the tyre.

So even highway driving, normal CC range can do well enough circa below 150km/h. So for these drivers, only when absolute real emergency only can see the tyre performance difference.

Another question is, whether the driver knows how to handle the car in emergency? If frozen (which most of us happen to), even pilot sport cup can't help the driver out of emergency....

Actually, more critical is driver awareness, and a good to pick up skill, defensive driving.

But being humans, vanity strikes us and we err towards the best performance that we can afford (sometimes can't afford). I admit sometimes i'm like this when it comes to purchases 

An example would be the smartphone, many have top range phone but among them, who actually uses more than 50% of the features?

I think a better way of saying would be good tyres gives larger margin for idiocy than lower performing tyres. But yeah, you have a point too.

wow....40% off sticker price!

Had a torn sidewall on my v12evo2 for almost a year. Can see a few strands of metal reinforcing threads start to rust, surprising that the tyre still held up till recently.

Was in singapore, randomly chanced upon a deal in carousell website, SGD100 for a used pair (inclusive installation and balancing). Heck, although i think the hankook can still hold up despite of the tear, just don't want to take the risk anymore.

Despite being 40% worn, the leftover threads are still darn thick, almost as thick as a new v12evo2. No wonder some test say cpc6 has good wear rates.

Also at the workshop, played around with the new goodyear F1A5. The meat is even thicker. For the price, performance and longevity, F1A5 is not cheaper but a better overall value for those staying in johor. Was surprised at the pricing, the workshop people told me that goodyear now market F1 asymmetric series as lower rank, to make space for supersport series.

I'm not sure because i fixed it at the rear, the tyre pitch noise is different, not so much higher pitch roar, but difference not that apparent. Maybe i'll know the wet/cornering performance after i opt for rotation to the front in a few months time when i replace the front bushings. My torn v12evo2 was at the back so change that pair first. The front pair got enough tread to last till end of this year. Not sure whether got better sidewall reinforcement compared to v12ev02, no lip for rim protection, and pretty soft to the fingers when pressed on the sidewall.

But the cpc6 tread is pretty deep, i estimate can last at least minimum 30k km despite being partially worn. There's also indicator for optimum wet performance, meaning got 2 tier tread wear indicator. I guess why it was sold so cheap because partially it was more than 3 years old (my own v12evo2 is 1 year newer) and a not too small puncture. Pretty recent patch as the rubber noodles still pretty sticky. But still a great value for me.

Singapore has lots of goodyear promotions. For my tyre size F1A5 and F1SS pricing SGD20 difference only....if you happen to come singapore holiday, whip up carousell website/app to search for tyre deals
