QUOTE(carlitofreak @ Oct 20 2021, 03:34 PM) Just change mine today from Michelin PS3 to VP3 2pcs Front size 235/40 R18 Year 2020 - RM360/pc 2pcs Rear size 275/35 R18 Year 2019 - RM350/pc Free Alignment and Balancing but kena charge rm60 for chamber nut adjustment? (Not sure what) Mostly kena scam already for chamber nut adjustment or change... Usually tire shop either give you cheap tire price, then in the end use this to get back the profit..

QUOTE(techtalks @ Mar 2 2023, 06:53 PM) Some say this tire bad in the rain. Some say very good in the rain. Mana satu betul ni? Is it better than XM2+ at least? Or on par? Need to change tires but dunno to go for which cos PS3 prices like haram now FYI, VP3 competes against Primacy 4 even more higher range compare to XM2+ https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Hankook/Ve...rime-3-K125.htmGo and read the test reports & reviews and decide your own.

QUOTE(techtalks @ Mar 2 2023, 10:51 PM) BTW sifus, which do you reckon is better? VP3 or Maxxis Victra Ipro? Price wise pretty close Tyre Category VP3 = Premium Touring Maxxis Victra Ipro = High Performance Summer tire If talk about performance for sure Maxxis is the better 1, but dont expect the same comfort & silent as premium touring tires. Also the treadwear of Maxxis also lower rated (faster wear) due to performance base. This post has been edited by littlefire: Mar 3 2023, 09:22 AM

QUOTE(techtalks @ Mar 3 2023, 11:25 AM) Am currently using PS3 year 2020. Need to change 2 pcs front dy. Before this was on Yoko ES32. Good tires but ES32 wear quite fast. Used Victra I Pro years ago, remembered that it was grippy and quiet when new. But not lasting of cos Was wondering whether should try out VP3 or not cos never used before Am using XM2 on another car, 4 years 50K KM still got 70%. Worth the money. Only getting slightly noisier now Anyone used EP300 before? How is it compared to VP3? Or any similar category tires XM2 now already similar to budget tire range which the rubber compound will harden over the years to prolong the lifespan, nothing to shout about as even my previous Giti tires really last a long long time until serious crack only throw away..

QUOTE(6UE5T @ May 4 2023, 01:40 PM) Comparing to MC5 is not really a good reference cuz MC5 is poor especially in the wet. MC6 is more decent. MC5 is consider as premium touring tires which is the same category as Prime series (Compare apple to apple) Is still a fair comparison compare to MC6 which eventually upgraded to UHP range. You can check in the link below where the tire model are under which category https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Continental/https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Hankook/

QUOTE(BL98 @ Jun 9 2023, 09:53 AM) Used Cr1 for 1 month, only nothing but praises for that tyre. So quiet, and yet the grip is so good for an eco tyre. I would think dry/wet grip is better than primacy 4 or even pilot sport 4 I used before. I don't know how they do it, but I was surprised also. The weakness of eco/budget tire is not grip but braking performance. Especially during emergency braking, the tire will help either hit or miss the front collision. Thus why some premium tires charge very high due to this reason.

QUOTE(autodriver @ Jun 13 2023, 09:28 AM) If quiet and soft riding are your first priority then CR1 is doing a great job. But in term of dry and wet grip CR1 are way behind Primacy 4 and PS4. PS4 is performance tyre which gives high level of grip in dry and wet, the drawback is harder ride and high level of noise. I believe a lot of people confuse grip as braking performance. grip mostly are related to traction, both dry & wet grip should not fair much as you can still drive in both condition even for CR1 or Primacy 4. The only wide difference is with braking performance, usually premium tires like Primacy will get better results in this category.

QUOTE(BL98 @ Jun 18 2023, 10:15 PM) E class using 45 profile r18. So most likely makes the ride feel harsh. And the PS4 wears down so fast. Even with gentle driving. And the price also very expensive too. PS4 are UHP tires, you dont expect performance tire to last long and better comfort. If want more better comfort & longer lasting tires, look into touring base tires like Primacy series or Hankook Prime 4 (latest) as per this topic. You dont need UHP tire performance for everyday use if your not a keen street racer.
