apa width size on ur bmw? normally wider tyre susah to spread out the water. also more surface contact so easier to aquaplane..also is is it staggered setup? maybe its time to buy ps4 all around lol. or maybe that new flagship goodyear.

255mm rear, 225 front. I think I am ready to switch to a better set of tires, but my tires are still in very good condition not sure if they are worth anything

Goodyear Efficientgrip? If it is, crap tyres. Go for PS4

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asummetric 3

Not gonna make much diff if youre going on above average speed...especially rwd its quite dangerous ...my car tail kena road divider the last time i go above 80 only

Not speeding, hydroplaning happens at 70kmh-90 km/h when the road has a pool of water. Doesn't happen when I am on my Persona Elegance, on the same roads

Careful at max going towards kL from the toll near cyber, kena hydroplane multiple times

I use that toll all the time since I live in Cyber. is it the area where you need to take a right turn after the dip?

Here's the thread and the model

1. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3
2. Staggered setup, rear tires 255mm, front tires 225.
3. Front tire feels skittish when on highway with puddle (I don't speed on inner road) - skittish starts to be felt at 70 km/h to 90 km/h, on which I would not increase my speed
4. When course correcting after hitting the pool-puddle, I can feel that the car is not responding to my steering, as if it is hydroplaning, even if a bit. Could I be too sensitive? This sensation isn't felt on my Persona Elegance
5. Manufactured on 22nd February 2019 - the car is a CBU registered in Malaysia in March 2019
6. My tires have 2-year warranty from the date of the car registration, I should still have up till March 2021 to get it sorted but not sure how to say t his

Yeah was thinking of the hankook ventus evo 2 or the potenza re003.
Once i fitted better tires and possibly HWL adjustable, I might be able to shave my century sprint to low 5 seconds lol

Dont take potenza re003 if u want some grip in wet. The tyre is kinda worst in wet, but good in dry. Like day & night.

Take hankook for best value for money. Or take Michelin ps4 for the best on both dry and wet. Currently on them on my 18", it kinda stick on very wet highway on 140kmh.
