Yup for 15, there's no PS4 but only up to PS3. V12E2 would be the best choice there, best value for money. Other notable choices are Goodyear F1D5 and BS RE003.

PS3 is excellent choice also but if I have to choose between PS3 and V12E2, I'd choose the V12E2 because it's more value for money as its much cheaper yet the performance is just as good if not slightly better in the dry than PS3. PS3 maybe is a bit better in aquaplaning resistance though. One minor issue with PS3 is chipping when driven hard but PS4 is also still like that.

Speaking about chipping and cracking. I wonder if park under roof will help prolong prevent such events. Apart from polishing weekly using the white liquid that u can find in DIY stores.

What about V12E2 vs re003 for wet grip and aquaplaning since re003 costs abt 165 per donut on 190 50 15

No I don't think parking under roof or in the hot sun makes much difference in therms of preventing chipping. Chipping is more due to driving them a bit harder and pushing the load a bit more in the corners. So far out of the tires I have used, actually all of them have chipping but just some more than others and the worse for me were F1D5, PS3 and now also PS4. Despite the chipping though, all of those still performed well as expected through out their lifetime.

RE003 has the weakest wet performance compared V12E2, PS3, and F1D5. It also wears off the soonest. It has the best dry performance though.

I see. Yeah the temptation to maintain speed at corner rather than brake then pickup is strong esp when car has good handling and stability. I'll take note of this during corners then

This size looks like a tire size for Saga FLX 1.6 SE.

Yup. Top choices should be between PS3 & V12E2.

Maybe can try Viking PT5 (not sure about the pricing now but it's around your budget) if can top up a bit go for dunlop J05 better.

Within this price range, your best bet is Goodyear Assurance Triplemax 2

Then you can still get the Hankook V12 Evo 2, best value for money tires now because it's high performance almost as good as Michelin PS series but price only like lower mid-range comfort tires.

Yes I vouch for this. If ur budget is that region u should really use this. All the other tyres are inferior at this price range.

If budget is not a problem, choose Michelin. They are very reliable tires.
