No, sorry bro.
Only got a fren that use Duraplus on a wira 13" wheels. Becaue doing sales, pick the long lasting tire. Ok ah, got decent grip, easy rolling not too noisy. Good on highway n fuel too. Just caution, dont last min brake dry/wet. Keep safe distance

Thanks for the reply. I need to change tires soon and is looking for options. I am currently using F1D5, very good tires but I am looking for something cheaper as I plan to change car next year, don't want to spend too much for current car.

Optilife looks great if u drive alot. But limited to r15 n r16 size.
On the other hand some users with bigger rims prefer EfficientGrip/Excellence for comfort and balanced performance.

Some ppl just skip n get Conti MC5 or Mich XM2 because its cheap with good performance for average drivers.

If goodyear i suggest Efficentgrip for rims 16" or higher.
But if you drive within speed limits, n comfort is most important, i suggest u try Continental CC6, right now they are the most quiet at a smaller budget, since its their bestseller, on paper they improved a lot compared to CC5. They hv a huge selection of sizes.

I use GY Eagle NCT5 previously but it has proven to be a disappointment to me. Then, I chg to use Conti UC6. Although my wallet has to afford more, but those features has improved such as noise reduction, grip enhancement and comfort improvement

Michelin premium tires are costly but performances stilll so so.. still go for budget tires? Continental premium tires costly as well, but at least its budget tire still satisfied people, thats why you can see many people using it

Have anyone here ever use yokohama c.drive 2? Pls share the experience. Tq

still available in the market?i thought they have stop production for this model.

IMO, Conti ties such as UC6, CC6 and CSC6 etc are quite recommend... UC6 has short baking distance in oth dy and wet, while CC6 is petty silent when driving on the road. Both of them are recommended in low budget, get CSC6 if you prefer premium tires

Im using CC5 and still no idea which model to go for. So far this model still under my satisfaction. CC6 sounds not bad, thanks for sharing

my friend used it before, he said quite okay la, the grip also ok.but after that tire botak he changes to continental, just to try it.but he said after use for 1year he prefers continental than yoko. the grip is better and comfort even in the rainy and wet road.

With the bad condition of our road, this worry free thingy worth considering:

https://www.goodyear.com.my/offer/worry-free-assurance

Yup, agree.

My car, the Ford Focus Mk3 used to come with Goodyear Assurance Fuelmax as stock tyres. IT's the predecessor to this Assurance Triplemax.

The Assurance Fuelmax although an eco tyre offers great performance for its class. The steering with the tyre is sharp and stability during cornering is good to excellent even though it is not a performance tyre like the Michelin PS3 or PS4. When the tyres were due to for replacement, I picked the Yokohama AE50 mainly for its good performance in the wet. Unfortunately, the dry performance of the AE50 cannot match the Assurance Fuelmax. Steering feel with the AE50 is not as sharp as the Fuelmax and cornering with the AE50 feels a bit soft, possibly due to the softer side wall.

I am still waiting for the thread of the AE50 fronts to wear out before I swap them with something else. Though I have to wait for quite some time, perhaps 30,000 to 40,000 km more.

If the Assurance Triplemax offers improved dry performance over the Assurance Fuelmax, I can surely relate to your experience. I understand it's not a performance tyre such as the PS4 but it is very decent in performance especially dry performance even if one is into some enthusiastic driving.

Wow thanks for the feedback and support. Some ppl here keep talking about the best performance tires, while im just happy with just some enthusiastic driving. My car is a family sedan Nissan Almera. I dont see any point in getting expensive tires when its only needed to perform well within speed limit, brakes well in our constantly wet weather.
Im surprised that Yokohama AE50 works better in wet than dry. Yeah just hv to wait till its worn out more before getting new tires.

I'm looking forward to get assurance triplemax as well. My Other choice might be Yokohama bluearth es32. Can I know how's the noice and comfort level for Goodyear assurance fuelmax?

To my ears, noise levels and quietness the Goodyear Assurance Fuelmax and Yokohama Bluearth AE50 are almost the same. Reasonably quiet and not noisy though I have not compared to quieter tyres. In terms of comfort level ie. soaking up road bumps and irregularities on the roads, both tyres are relatively comfortable but the Yokohama's softer rubber provides a slightly more comfortable ride as it soaks up the bumps slightly better. Not really a night and day difference though I surely feel the rubber to be softer. That is one reason why the Yokohama AE50 feels a bit soft during cornering and doesn't have the sharpness in steering control of the Goodyear Assurance Fuelmax.

I am not familiar with the Yokohama Bluearth ES32. Perhaps this is the new replacement of the Bluearth AE50? At any rate, I believe it is down to priorities in selecting the suitable tyres which are mainly down to 2 things which is performance and best value for money. Despite people's description and comparison on various tyres over here, in reality the differences between these tyres can be minute and not that great. In other words, the tyres will still serve the same purpose, to get the car moving on the road. In terms of noise levels or comfort between similar range or quality of tyres, although there may be differences in reality it will be quiet small and negligible once they are on the vehicle. You will forget about the difference after a while.

If one drives within normal speed limits or even if a little enthusiastic on public roads, I believe even the non-performance tyres such as Goodyear Assurance Triplemax or even the slightly inferior Bluearth AE50 will be good enough, unless one is more into fast and furious driving or want to mimic race drives in an F1 circuit or something, then perhaps the Michelin PS4 or extreme performance tyres will be more suitable. However, the vehicle also plays a part. If one is driving a Proton Saga, Nissan Almera or Toyota Altis (just an example), it makes little sense to have high performance tyres on these vehicles as these are just normal passenger vehicles without much handling characteristics or torque and horsepower to go with the sporty tyres. Even in my Ford Focus which has higher than average road handling, in my mind the stock tyres (Goodyear Assurance Fuelmax) are more than decent enough for some enthusiastic drive. In that sense, I believe the Assurance Triplemax will be good enough for most cars on the road UNLESS it's a more performance-orientated car such as Mini Polo or Volkswagen Golf GTI etc. especially drivers who like to tackle cornering like a race champ, then that's a different story.

Yes, as what I have written in my post above. If you are on the Nissan Almera, I believe the Goodyear Assurance Triplemax is more than good enough for your car. It's a waste of money to go with costlier performance tyres such as PS4 or other types. I believe the Triplemax is a good all-round tyre with a balanced attributes of performance, comfort and quietness unlike the more performance type which will be noisier and slightly reduced comfort (harder sidewalls etc.) although handling in both dry and wet may be better.

Found a review on the Goodyear Assurance Triplemax. It looks like the impressions of the reviewer coincide with my experience.

https://www.autofreaks.com/news/first-impre...ance-triplemax/

"I love the fact that it give sort of sporty precision and handling for although it is not a performance tyre. It provides a much sharper steering feedback and the car basically turns where you wanted it to go, but much quicker. I noticed that the overall handling of my Fiesta has improved and it’s a whole lot more fun to drive."
