QUOTE(Aeon_Clock @ Jan 21 2023, 04:05 PM) what...nobody talks about this great tyre anymore? Have been testing this tyre in the rain recently and I gotta say its pretty awesome...how it still wants to grip even with that layer of slippery liquid around it is...breathtaking. I can sense that the road is a bit slippery but the grip levels on the tyre is still trying its best to hold on. At higher speeds this will probably not hold but at the speed I normally do and with my car's chassis...it gripped just nicely (actually grip was tearing as you go but still not letting go!) Waiting for Prime 4 to reach Malaysian market Some shops that used to sell Prime 3 before also have no stock of this tyre Reviews in Europe seems to indicate the newer Prime 4 is much improved over the Prime 3 Been using Prime 3 for almost 2 1/2 years and clocked about 60k km Already due for replacement but still no news of Prime 4 reaching our market yet

QUOTE(zack.gap @ May 4 2023, 10:56 AM) Just changed to a full set of Prime 4's. Looks like the initial batch we're getting is made in korea (not indo like prime 3's). Manufacturing plant code for my set is 15M (Hankook Kumsan, South Korea). So far first impressions is good. Haven't really driven aggressively in dry since want to break in the tyre slowly. Wet performance is pretty decent but I'm comparing to my old set of MC5's. Will post further impressions when I've done around 500++km.. Which shop did you for for Prime 4? Thanks

QUOTE(zack.gap @ May 4 2023, 01:35 PM) the MC5's were stock tyres. Another comparison would be with UC7 but that's on a different car and different size. Bestari Tyre in Klang. They had my particular size. Owner and workers were pretty decent, you just need to know how to haggle to get the best price lol. Thanks for your reply I've whatsapp them and they do have my required size. price quoted over whatsapp is the same as in their Shopee shop Need to replace my Prime3 soon This post has been edited by widget: May 4 2023, 04:16 PM
