1) I know for city it's NZ40 size but can we use NZ60 ? should be no issues right ?
2) I read up on NZ40 and it has batteries from 36B20L all the way to 50B20L, can someone tell me is the numbers indication of the power performance ? longer lasting ?

tyres, I need some tyre feedback from fellow city drivers.
currently all 4 on stock size Michelin energy xm-2, soft, quiet but not lasting after 50% tread
I accelerate & take corners at high speed occasionally besides the normal driving.

since time to change, I am thinking to change tyre toward priority on long lasting & durable type .. don't mind forgoing comfort & Quietness

Any/All recommendations and feedback is welcome on the following sizes.

185/55/R16

195/55 or 60/R16

What's the mileage with the current XM2? What is ur criteria for "lasting"? My previous car using XM2 can last up to 60,000km b4 I sold it. From appearance it was chipping but in terms of performance, especially in wet, it still was stable at highway speeds. If XM2 not durable for you, I don't know any other tyres thats as long lasting, maybe Michelin Primacy perhaps.

thanks for the feedback.
it's not always about getting the most mileage to judge a tyre, anyway mine is about 40,000 km -ish in and just touch 2 years yet treads at about 25 - 30%, sides "cracking/chipping", and also my experience dry condition no problem wet not so good.
btw i also dropby tyre shop yesterday and he mention xm-2 is also one of the best, if xm-2 is the best then this is going to be hard or my driving style issue perhaps ?

my "lasting" is able to travel high mileage yet still have treads which will not sacrifice grip + durable to conditions and certain terrain like unpaved road etc.
Any recommendation ?

Does anyone have water leaking issues specifically at the back passenger and how you solve it ?

not talking about water storing you unscrew a rubber at the side to drain or the bottom hole stuck case (I have cut-off the rubber).

The one I am highlighting here is the water sipping thru your window rubber and leaking out thru the space between door cover & door metal (maybe due to bad sealant).

I am now pondering should I just seal up the big hole at the door (remove the cover and you can see it) or go for a leak test (this is damn expensive)
I am afraid sealing up the hole may not solve the problem hence the question about.

Thanks ahead.
