RM700 can buy me 4 decent brand ie CC6 tyres


MICHELIN today unveiled the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV for high performance, premium sports utility vehicles (SUV).



There’s a new ultra high performance tyre for SUVs in town, and it’s the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV. Completing the Pilot Sport range in Malaysia, it is the French tyre maker’s first dedicated on-road offering for premium sports SUVs, touted to offer superior durability, braking and handling performance and ride comfort.

As with the rest of the new Pilot Sport lineup, the SUV variant sports an asymmetric tread pattern, but here this asymmetry also extends to the grooves. This results in tread blocks that more rigid and hence better suited to the increased vehicle weight, improving durability.

Equipped with a high-density double casing ply, the tyre is also more capable of shrugging off road shock damage, which can occur when going over potholes, for example. All in all, Michelin claims it can travel up to 13,000 km further than competing rollers, as it proved in a durability test last year.

Of course, the Pilot Sport 4 SUV has also been designed with performance in mind, and to that end the new compound incorporates functional elastomers and thin silica to improve wet weather handling and braking. There’s also a hybrid belt made of aramid and nylon, said to provide better steering response and precision.

Michelin says the Pilot Sport 4 SUV was placed first in a wet handling test conducted by TÜV SÜD, in which an SUV equipped with the tyre managed to lap a 1,050 metre track up to 5.06 seconds quicker than with its rivals. It also triumphed in a braking test, hauling the same SUV to a stop some 2.7 metres shorter than other tyres in the dry and up to 4.9 metres shorter in the wet. The advantage was extended when the tyres were worn, to a considerable 8.5 metres.

Externally, the tyre sports the velvet-like sidewall finish first introduced on the Pilot Sport Cup 2, along with a deeper black look for a sportier aesthetic. It has also been optimised to improve ride comfort and minimise road noise, according to Michelin.

The new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV is now available at all Tyreplus and authorised Michelin dealers nationwide, offered in 39 sizes that measure between 17 and 23 inches in diameter. It is priced from RM700.

anyways 700 is retail price, usually can get quite abit lower than stated retail, my guess is 500ish

Good idea.

Skimp on tyres.. the ONLY thing on your car that actually have contact with the road...

sini olang pakai linlong saje. manada pakai michelun

This is suv tyre lol


Usually 18"one


You 700 ringgit 4 tyres is 14"one right?

still got yokohama, toyo, hankook, goodyear etc mar, not those china made cheap tyres or nexen or lingloong or gt radial etc

ayam pakai chaoyang jer
owai

I would have bought one.. if they had my size.

Unfortunately have to go with Primacy SUV instead haiz

Expensive because the staff everyday dine in Michelin starred restaurants.

nexen for all terrain tyre is okay what.

CC6 is not a decent tire btw.

Tu lah dia.

Sohai got speed rating wan la.


See tyre ending alphabet.....mine is 92W. Can do 280kmh wan

CC6 is no performance tyre, let alone high performance
it's an "a little higher class" eco tyres

X70 owners enjoice!

What to do, they michelin, sell so expensive tyre. Even primacy mid range so expensive, let alone ps4. Although no doubt ps4 really good.

Proton owner can buy liao

lagista

If 17 inches anytime any where la

Inbe4 auntie kata i dont drive fast fast wan

SUV dah lah berat, tyre wear sure hai lat

few months bck mcm saw a thread about nexen tyres bulging

very exp, and now got alot of other cheaper alternatives also like yokohama, toyo etc, those are not as good ps4 but they are alot cheaper, now michelin tyres very hard to sell liao

my tyre is 17 inch n the boss told me ps4 tarak need order wor, how?

no idea, but so far the rodian at pro we used on our dmax have been doing well. way better than for gods know why stock tyre on a 4x4 was a HT tyre..

Cause HT tyres have superior grip and braking ability on highways compared to AT/MT

for a 4x4.. that were advertised with the theme of off-roading..

rm700 for 17 inch not that bad la

pickup tyres also rm500+ already

HT is the quietest, least rolling resistance, lightest and offers most natural handling i guess?

AT can be quite loud and annoying for long distance cruising and the thick sidewall makes handling feels wobbly

btw, PS4 on par or above with other UHP like RE003/ad08r? what are other common UHP in malaysia

Made in Siam lor also so expensive ah!

Yeah baby!!

can buy cheaper second hand also

and 99% users are urban warriors that never seen a mud road..

PS4 is UHP meh?

Even my wife's ex-proton also using PS3 (before 4 is released)..

civic fb 2.0 using ps4
better than ps3 in the ride quality tbh

can't do the math.

13" average 130
14" average 160
16" average 230
17" average 300

does the material cost alot for each inch increase?
u see 13 vs 17 just 4 inch diff. but cost more than double

yup ps4 is uhp.. and ps4 suv is release to replace latitude sport (uhp) also

its for premium suv .. hrv crv cx5 xtrail x70 Subaru xv Tiguan fags pls don't sibuk2 beli… later not enough money to service car.

>17 a lot are imported... u factor in the currency rate and if i m not mistaken tyre are taxable in malaysia to protect our own rubber industry..

thats why sg car with small size tyre comes in malaysia for tyre change.. my car with big tyre going sg for tyre change

Linglong > all

bigger rim means wider tire too.

My neigh drives Audi Q7... Using China tyres. Sail something.
Lol.

Well... on my set of PS4 already done roughly 25k km on my car with 340nm torque, mostly reckless miles, so far still have 50% thread left, maybe still can do 20k more from the looks of it. I expect that it can only do 30k for this kind of tyre, but well, it did better than my expectations.

Landsail ?

My car 19" toyo tyre every 1.5 year need to spend RM 4k.

Yes.

oh understand. by far I believe even there have taxes to protect local manufacturer. but the price still few times. which is give the doubt of manufacturing cost diff by few times ?

yes, i know what you mean.
the surface area is bigger but usually raw material usually cost 30% of their manufacturing cost.

Next tire change for my navara will be this

255/55/18

wat? so exp? top up a bit tukar pirelli..
cx5 2.5?

consider production cost vs production vol also..

smaler typre have bigger market they can produce high vol with same / 10-20% of extra overhead/raw
bigger tyre have smaller market they have to produce lower quantity with same amt of resources in factory..

Shipping also... 1 container says can fit in 1200 pcs of 14" tyre maybe can only fit 800 pcs of 19" tyre.

the bigger the tyre goes it will be more exp.. until it gets more and more popular then only we will see price dropped..

but the last point is: regardless where is it.. michelin comment also the same.. good tyre but expensive.. u can read their comment on their tyre review.. these are the common feedback..

I every 4k tukar tyre only rm 90

wat u mean? 4k km tukar tyre? 1 pcs RM90? or 4 pcs RM90?
gud luck bro.. once u try hyroplanning then u will know how important is ur tyre.. i wont risk myself over it

4k km. 1 pcs 45 ringgit.



yes you guessed, is kapcai bulat.

I have seen thai Toyota commuter van using PS4 with 18' rim

If care about handling, we don't even bother to care tyre wear. U see those conti SUV their rear wheel all have camber

I think it is.

Stock Tyres for some AMGs and BMW Ms I think, I recall my neighbour's M3 had PS4 from factory.

good timing for Michelin to join in the SUV tyres segment. As we know here in Malaysia, the SUV sales are keep increasing by days (thanks to x70). Hopefully with more competitions, it will benefits the consumers as there will be plenty of choices hence will bring down the price. finger crossed.

My axia uses chaoyang.....quite ok in sabah road....

Ya ka?

I'm gonna change into PS4 SUV for my lorry's 18" tyre wor...

Awesome.. then when I use that for my lorry I can have AMG feel

wait, the tyre is only good for 13,000 km only? is that right? I one year already drove around 20,000 km already, do i have to change tyres every year?

ayam using michelin primacy 4 for ma suv now..really nice tires..very quiet also..wondering about tire noise for PS4..coz performance usually abit noisy.

PS 4 is better than RE003 lar..RE 003 actually benchmark with pilot sport series

anyway got better than ps series

pilot sport cup series

they always have this segment.. but not many ppl willing to spend the money.. its call latitude sport..

this time they intro smaller size smaller price

rm700 per piece?

no thanks.

i'd stick with continental or goodyear for my BRV & city hybrid.

Sony is coming out with PS5, oh wai...

is okay bruh.

PS4 is not meant for eco cars.

RE003 is better than PS4 by a very little margin on dry track.

When comes to wet RE003 can not lar. and noisy af. and tyre wear damn gg.

Larger wheel size means heavier vehicles.
For heavier vehicles different materials need to use for wall strengthening

17 inch and 18 inch price jump is even more.

When can I test your quite suv ?

read properly bero
