Hi,

Recently i'm shopping around for 4 pcs 215/50r17 tyre, but not sure which is better choices.

Driving style: mostly city driving with speed 60-90 km/h. Yearly mileage only around 10k+ km.

Here are my online findings that suits my budget:

1) Goodyear Excellence (RM255-285) - should be normal tyre? as most of the time I saw it on honda stock tyres.

2) Kumho Ps31 (RM298) - no idea

3) Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 (RM290-390) - price differences alot between shops, it is legit to get from the cheaper shop? They mentioned 2019 tyres btw.

4) Toyo TR1 (RM335-347) - less preferable because need to stretch abit for the budget.


*Saw many good review about Hankook V12 Evo2 but not planning to get these because i survey few shops mostly are 2018 stock with 1 or 2 pcs left or no stock.

**Prefer newer tyres as the car is low mileage so I assume newer tyre can last longer before expiry? Workplace parking is fully covered with roof.

***Prefer first 3 choices since price is within budget assuming RM290 V701 is legit.


Any recommendations for choosing these tyres? Thanks all.

Just don't choose the PS31, at that price is ridiculous! Lol

You may want to check Goodyear F1D5. I used it before exactly the same size too. Pretty good tire, lasted me over 50k km, but not sure if can get below your rm300 budget.
