Morning guys. I want to know what is the best wet grip tyre for 235/50/18. Its for my forester. I'm thinking F1 Asym 3 as an major option now. With PS4 i can't find any suitable size even though I'm actually like it.

Get the Hankook V12 Evo 2, it's available for your size, it's much cheaper yet it managed to beat the F1A3 in the latest comparison test in the US!

Michelin Primacy SUV. Are you driving the XT model with original size of 225/55/18? If non-XT model which comes with 225/65/17, changing to 235/50/18 would be a big difference in speedometer and overall odometer reading. At 70km/h, you would actually be doing only 67 km/h.

I'm driving the non-XT model and will be changing to 235/60/18 next week, which would be 71.5 kmh when speedometer reads 70 kmh. Am still considering between Primacy SUV or Falken ZIEX950 ...

For non-SUV tires, can SUV use them like PS4?

I'm driving non-XT model. The stock size is 225/60/17. So its still okay if I choose 235/50/18 or 225/55/18. Smaller by 1.1%.

You can try check with this seller, they often post selling V12E2 inn mudah and their prices seem one of the cheapest.

Yeap. Quite odd indeed.

Using yoko geolandar on my harrier. Thinking of changing to Continental, can I use passenger tyres on suv?

U can try as long it match with your current size but off coz can't go offroad with that tyre. I'm waiting my current tyre bald then only change to 18' wheels. Might go for the v12 evo 2...

It should be fine as long as you don't go off-roading. In fact on normal roads it will be the better choice as in general will offer better handling and grip performance. For Continental you can use this CSC5, it's one of the best in the market but be prepared to pay more since this is still made in Europe:

Can’t seem to find csc5 with 235/55/18 on lazada. What about toyo cf2 SUV? Quite new in Malaysia market, so far can’t find any review for Malaysia yet.

Go ask around tire shops la, don't just rely on Lazada coz I think Lazada will only have more popular sizes.

I never favor Toyo tires to be honest coz they are kind of overrated and overpriced just because many are imported directly from Japan. laugh.gif If compared to CSC5 I can confidently say that Toyo will not measure up! However I reckon that Toyo should be a lot cheaper too than the CSC5.

Me also thinking of changing my SUV tires on my CRV. Its 235/60R18. PS4 only max.45. Unless Primacy ST got 225/55, 235/50. I don't really bother about speedometer accuracy.
