How much you got it?

480 per tyre.

If including new tubes, balancing and alignment, then good price. This one better than the uc6 suv.

yeap, including labour and everything. i changed 4 tyres after 41,000 km. my uc6 had premature wear and tear as i did not align and balance until 10,000 km after i bought the car. by that time the damage already done, makan tepi kao kao.

hi guys,

i am also looking for comfort and quiet tyres:

Primacy 4 : i know it is everyone 1st choice, but too expensive.
Yokohama Es32 / Ae51 ; good ?
Toyo Proxes CR1 : good?
Good Year ??

I need help...

Any more reviews from anyone for this tyre?

Just got this 185/60 14. So far seems quiet compared to old xm2. Like others have said sidewall feels soft. Will update after driving more.

After driving a bit can say more comfortably than xm2. Tyre OD might be slightly smaller cause comparing GPS speed now overread about 5kmh at 110kmh compare to the Michelin before.

Are you guys compare new tire with old tire WHEN IT WAS NEW? If not, don't compare new tire with old tire in terms of quietness... old tyre rubber harden, surely it will lose out greatly to new softer rubbers .. just like old man bud vs baby bud.. cheers all

changed my city tmo rear with this CR1 also.
the tyre looks more 'rounded' at side compare to previous B.stone EP300 where its looks more squarish

Done 5k km on 235/40/18 CR1 at RM410/pc (Sabah).

Overall quite happy with the dry performance and way better in the wet than my previous Dunlop DZ102 which aquaplane like crazy whenever over 100km/h.
Hope it lasts at least 30k?


DZ102 gone at 22K (lowered but only -2 camber)

Having using this CR 1 since Nov 2020 and as todate already clocking about 17k km...sofar so good, still a quiet tires with reasonable performance during dry & wet condition...i can say its value for money. As this tires is about half the price of PS4 with the same size (235 55 19)...i dont feel CR1 performance is half from PS4... feel like at least 70-80% % of it...therefore my conclusion at the moment is CR1 is value for money

Only 22k kms???

Check your alignment other than -2° camber issue above.

Edit: Besides, aquaplane at > 100 km/hr may be helped with alignment adjustment whilst checking such.

lol...even the car is CGI...how to trust this....

bro, I keep hearing about sidewall soft...what does this mean? Will the car bend sideways more when turning? I'm interested to know how this tyre compares with Continental MC5.

yup, this tire is having quite soft side wall as compared by my previous tires used.. I put 36psi of air to cure the soft sidewall issues....so its minimize the tire flexing during cornering...its non issue driving at 180km/h or sometimes up to 200km/h

Do you speed all the time and like to take corners fast? If yes the go to a race track. On a serious note yes the side wall of the CR1 is kinda soft but still within reason.

When taking corners at speed you can kinda feel that there is some tyre play/squishing and losing grip (dunno how to explain since its all in to driving feeling). As long as you dont drive like a dumbass then no need to worry.

One of the softest tyres i used before was the primacy LC, really soft and scary in the corners

well, I am not one of those speedfreaks if that's what you're asking (0 speeding summon after 15 years) but I do corner faster than anyone else around for some reason.
But I think I do take care of the tyres VERY well despite this...my MC5 has done 59k so far and there's still enough thread to last another year. I'm only changing for safety reasons...some people say lifespan isn't good after 5 years.

My beemer is also using DZ102, no issues with aquaplane on highway speeds of average 110~140km/h during normal rain condition.
Please check your suspension settings i believe something wrong.

Changed 4 tyres from Bridgestone Ecopia to Toyo Tires CR1 today (21/1/2022).
Size is 175/65/R14.
Workshop: Len Sheng Tyre & Auto Sdn Bhd
Location: Wangsa Maju
Price per piece: RM150 × 4
Tyre pressure: 220kpa
Tyre Rating: 82H
Other info: Only free balancing. No free alignment given, dunno why.

Driving Experience after 89km + evening heavy rain:
-Immediate impression was this a very very very quiet tyre in comparison to my previous BS Ecopia. Road noise barely audible at lower speed.
-Dry braking: No difference compare to BS Ecopia (new or old)
-Wet braking: Tbh, BS Ecopia is still slightly better in this category judging by my pedal braking force applied.

Will revert soon after clocking more kilometres along the way.

Verdict so far: Cheap & Good.👍

Unrelated point: Myself being a huge CR7 fan, the tyre imprint CR1 holds significant importance to me 😛

Just curious, BS Ecopia 150 or 300?
Great review 👍

Has anyone else made the jump from Michelin XM2's to the CR1?

A previous post mentioned that they're more quiet & comfortable than the XM2. Would love to hear additional feedback.

Price wise the CR1s are also a fair bit more affordable than the XM2.. For my ride (175/65 R15) they are around RM160+ vs RM220++ for the XM2.

Seems the threadwear is lower though @ 340 (CR1) vs 420 (XM2+)
