Was using EP200 until changed to Hankook Kinergy EX H308 due to balding and deep pothole inflicted sidewall bulge. Used for 40+k km. Preffered EP200 over CC5 wrt fuel economy and also the Hankook Kinergy EX H308 which regrettably was not as grippy in the wet and less than acceptable on dry. Had it not been for the bulge, would have used it until 50+k km. Too bad I changed to the Hankook else would have gone for this. The EP200 holds great in negotiating curvy uphill incline exit from Seramban highway on to Besraya at no more than 70-75km/h even in the wet. Don't even dare go above 60km/h on the same with the Hankook even when dry.

QUOTE(enricco @ Jun 12 2018, 08:31 PM) just installed today 185/55/r16 bought fr lazada. first impressions, not as quiet as conti cpc2 but not as hard as xm2. for the price its great for city driving. will try highway long distance drive for raya balik kg trip and not tested yet for wet driving. Thks for sharing..How much per tyre plus delivery? I've not bought tyres from Lazada before so if you can enlighten it would be helpful. How does it work when buying tyres? Do they deliver to your delivery address as usual or to an appointed tyre dealer near you? This post has been edited by halcyon27: Jun 13 2018, 08:39 AM

QUOTE(gn555999 @ Jan 4 2019, 05:29 PM) Just Change from Ep300 to ES32 today due to discomfort ride, very disappointed with the quality where i only used for 1 year plus , car start to vibrate and found multiple bulges (Swell) on Tyre. Changed to ES32 and everything seems resolved. What's your ride rim width and the EP300 tyre size? I find this to be common when the tyres shodded are wider than recommended ie beyond the rim's width. Whenever going pot holes esp this may have a tendency to occur.

QUOTE(gn555999 @ Jan 6 2019, 05:02 PM) All these while im using the 195/65/15, where rim is alsothe original manufacturer rim and factory size. Rim size would be 15" diameter with rim width 6.0" JJ or narrower like 5.5" JJ? 195 is ok on 6.0" but on 5.5" the tendency to bulge if kena pothole is higher. I've experienced this on 195/55/R15 on an older City and my rims was 5.5". When changed to a 6.0", it's ok. This post has been edited by halcyon27: Jan 6 2019, 05:12 PM
