Don't need anything special. Just safe can dy lor. I had a conti in a mk5 golf gti before. It's was super bad during rain. Then change eagle f1 asym and then toyo t1r

So I just want to know if mc6 is ok in the rain cause the price is good.

Which Continental did you have before? What size for your Jaguar btw, 19/20?

At that price range cannot expect too much. It wouldn't match GY F1A2/3 but should be better than T1R cuz T1R is rather poor and outdated model.

CSC3 should be decent actually. I use a few times too, no issues, can still go 130-140 in the wet.

It was one of the worst tire I used. Was at JALAn tun razak near the library area, raining and the car aquanaut when hit puddle at 50 60km. Changed to eagle f1 then no provlem. That's why worried about the mc6.

Heard contis are very quiet tires but not good grip. Best overall performance I've used is ps2. Best grip def eagle f1 but not as good at cornering as ps2.

Personal experience and also from be golf gti owners. Csc v ps2 should have no comparison I guess.

Thanks let me know about the mc6. I'm also waiting for 2020 large size. 275 width

No lah, 18 are plenty out there! You just want cheap but good that's why more difficult. You get what you pay in most cases.

245 and above are difficult to get ! PS4 got plenty as they are freaking expensive! I would agree with you if one has no issue on high end imported UHP tyres! I have issue coz i am reluctant to spend too much on tyres! Just need an average joe to do the job! laugh.gif

No lah, 245/40/18 is a very common size, almost all models have it.Aside from Mc6, Toyo Proxes Sport got at just under rm500/pc, Falken Azenis FK510, Dunlop Sportmaxx 050+, Goodyear F1S are available with still very reasonable prices for UHP around 500-600/pc. PS4 is just a bit more expensive at around rm650-680. You use Mercs with 18' 245 tires then should be prepared to pay la. If you want much cheaper then can downsize to 225/45/18.

Oh why you don't like Goodyear? It's one of my favourites actually coz they make awesome tires and the only brand that can consistently match and even beat Michelin across the model ranges. The Efficient Grip can beat Primacy 4 while F1SS (above F1S and F1A5) is probably the best max category UHP out there, even beating CSC6 and PS4S!

Btw how much did you buy the MC6?

Good feedback. Twitchy means? I remember csc3 was easy to spin the wheels at traffic lights. Rain was unpredictable.

Sorry not ps4 but ps2.

Ps2 was good balance for everything.

I agree these ps2 tires are so ex. Mostly last 30000km only

I would put better tires on my car, like 1k per tire but I just bought another car. So this car just mainly drive once a week only. So thinking mc6 is cheap. Got quotes about 2400 for 4 pieces. Back and front is staggered. But i got to spend a bit more to buy a sealant and pump kit cause original is run flat.

Wah you got chopped kaw kaw la! 😅 Which shop was that? Must avoid next time. MC6 225/45/18 should be just rm420-430 while 245/40/18 only rm550-570! Rm640 might as well top up rm30-40 and get PS4 already.

That one is ECS, not EC6. Anyway surely MUCH better than MC6! I used the ECS before, one of if not the best tire I ever tried. At least as good if not better than PS4 for both dry and wet! Highly recommended.

If you want anti-aquaplaning tires you can get a lot of tire review in the net by just ask mr. Google.

https://www.thetirelab.com/rankings/summer/aquaplaning/

If you look at the top 10, i believe all these model below can be quoted for your means.

Michelin PS4
Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2
Kumho Ecsta PS71
Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance
GoodYear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5
Maxxis Premitra HP5

Yes, don’t leave out GY. They are now pricing it very competitive. I’d rather choose GY over Michelin and Continentals. Look at GY asym5. Performance is really not bad for its pricing. And yes, the efficient Grip performance is much better than primacy 4.

I feel that Michelins are now over priced. It’s more of brand perception among Malaysians.

Look at Lazada or Shopee. Sometimes their price is one of the lowest. Another tyre shop that offer good pricing is Oscar Shah Alam.
