215/50R17 good tyre how much? I saw pricelist at shop, wait 800-1k? I no go racing also, 300 tyre got different? normal road user only

I use eco tyres only. No drive fast fast ok de.
But need to remember that the tolerance for eco tyre is very low. Meaning don't drive fast fast especially when cornering

Tires are the contact point between your car and the ground. Get good tires, it can make a whole lot difference in an emergency brake situation under wet conditions. It is worth the investment.

eco tyre sounds like not suitable for segment C or D car. for what good car but have to drive slow? it's like buy expensive badminton frame but use cheap string, might as well get a cheap racket

500 per tyre good enough? how to measure / classify a tyre's grade?

U just answered your own question lol.

It is not really about price. Branded one can cost higher than comparable counterpart

I guess just go of review online and judge on your own

but at least brand and higher price have some credibility

The tyres are the only contact point between your car and the road. If you watch online tyre tests and reviews, the expensive ones are definitely better so there is a difference. The difference is mostly on grip levels, handling and braking performance. But nowadays, there are decent budget options around. Go search for reviews online. Just try not to save too much on tyres.

As mentioned above, tires is a very important aspect of your car so don't be a cheapskate on it!

As for the price, for your size actually won't reach 800-1k (unless it's RFT tires). Around 300-500 you'd already get pretty good tires. For example around 500+ you can already get Michelin PS4 for your size, and around 300 can get you value for money Hankook V12 Evo 2, both are good choices already.

Of course, you want to buy reputable or known brand also. Each tire brand also have many serires meant for different purpose. So, performance varies to purpose also. Harder rubber last longer but noisy and usually poor braking distance. Softer rubber good braking but shorter lifetime.

215/50r17 must be civic turbo model right.

I had use multiple tyres from cheap to expensive one and now is on ps4.

Good tyre one u can feel its grip. Eventhough u not drive fast, but still u can feel the planted feeling especially when u do:
i) high speed cruising(at least 160kmh)
ii) cruise a bit fast during rain(100kmh)

So. I recommend u buy ps4. Lel.

good tyre usually more to performance,better in terms of wet dry grip and handling.if u chooose brand like yokohama v701/hankook v12/michelin ps4 is consider good tyre.thought the yokohama advan v701 is quite worth to use.my friend bought this tyre about rm 350 last year.now its only rm 300+-

ps4 500+ per biji?

My size accord 8th gen 2.4 225/50/17 I purchase at rm530 last year. Now check lazada seems like got price hike. Now is rm585 per donut. The fuck, so expensive.

215/50/17 also above rm500 . But u can opt for cheaper but still good tyre such as v12 evo2, mc6, tr1, falken latest forgot what name.

Michelin too expensive nowadays, even primacy 4 touring series price same as other uhp tyres

225 50 17 ps4 market still around rm 500+-
recently just ask the price

Goodyear ATM2? Slightly different size but it's cheaper and good enough for normal driving. Or the New Toyo TR1... Below rm400. Or any eco ABC brand within your budget.
If not you can just try the premium ones the guys are recommending for better grip.

This morning I just change this tire size. From MC5 to PS4

I've searched high and low for 2 weeks and I settled with an old shop here in JB. RM490 per donut

Initially was told need additional 2% when paying using CC but the lady boss didn't charge in the end.

Funny thing is all who change tire, regardless of brand and price at her shop she ask buyers to scan and submit to Continental Fast and Furious contest - can get wireless Bluetooth ear piece. She provided us with legit Continental receipt (belonging to others) to upload. LOL

Now is raining season.. Get some reputable tyres please.. I know this video is showing high performance car with crap tires but it gives u an idea of why some tires are so cheap..



Some reputable tires locally made would be the Conti, Dunlop or Viking brand.. Dunlop is already ok not that expensive. Cheaper than Conti with good review.. I think J5 got your size..

If not 6UE5T's recommendation for the Hankook is also good.

Hankook 200-300 cheapsket tayar consider good?!

Depends on which Hankook model. I suggest minimum buy the V12 Evo 2.

Big brands like hankook conti michellin all have their budget range.. Even these are far better compared to linglong/landsail/windrun etc tires..
