I followed the recommendation of lowyat tire sifu. Used Hankook Evo V12 (directional tire) had good dry and wet performance. However 2 out of my 4 tires which were of the same age had bulging issue once the tires hit the thread marker. A bit scary that 50% of my tires had suddenly form a bludge (tire bengkak). Then I changed to Michelin PS3 slightly poorer wet performance but less noisy recently reached the thread marker, so far no issues.

Nop didn’t hit anything, I also made sure I was not sold old tires. It just bulge luckily I realized it as I always rotate the tire every 5k service. I typical try to stretch my money haha, so among the two tires this Hankook falls below PS3 in terms of quality. PS3 even at wear marker has no bulge yet.
