He doesn't like Michelin PS series already coz it's not so silent and hard for him (PS4 might be slightly more silent but it's also harder than PS3).

I think your best bet should be Goodyear F1A2 or 3 for UHP, or the newest Yokohama Advan db v552 for mid-range/entry level performance category. The F1 will be expensive coz made in Europe/Germany while I'm not so sure about the new Advan db price range, should be cheaper but not as cheap as the Hankooks coz it's still made in Japan.

You can try ask around first. This tire I think already start to sell here coz I remember some guy in a forum (not sure here or others) have bought it recently and the price seems more reasonable now.

Hmm that's a pity, then maybe only BS Turanza may fit for you. Or maybe can ask around for Continental MC6 if available for your size. That one should be more improvement over the MC5.

How wide is stock Accord rims? If already 8jj then can use 245 but if narrower then better not. Easier match would be 225/45/18 but that would be even lesser sidewall height than 235/45 so might not be suitable for TS who prioritizes more on comfort.

Hmm not bad, decent width for stock rims, just like the Mark X Sport Package.

At least for Continental get the CPC series (maybe only CPC2 here). MC6 is supposedly similar or even better than CPC2 but not sure really coz not much reviews on it. UC6 is low end model, should be comfortable but grip is not good.

I also check Primacy 4 is not yet having your size in the Michelin Malaysia website, not sure if really don't have or not coz often the website is not really complete/updated. If available, I think this should be your best choice but will be quite pricey too.

Oh maybe you can also ask around for the newest Hankook Prime 3 (K125), that should be a decent mid range tire with much more affordable price than Primacy 4 or Turanza. Not sure if already available in Malaysia market though.

MC5 not so good, and he's using it already now and seems looking for a change.
CSC5 is excellent but very expensive and not so silent so probably would not be suitable for him.

Nope, coz I think that size will make it heavy for his car. Even I don't want to use 245/45/18 on mine so I wont suggest it to his. Actually for his exact size the best value tire would be the FK510 but he doesn't like stiff sidewall tires so cannot suggest that anymore.
