Do we have Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 in Malaysia? Looks like a really interesting tire

Many tyre shops here like to push UC6 or CC6 to buyers
If ask for other models, they always say that "These tyres are good what" tongue.gif

Not yet, maybe in future would have. Yeah it does well in this review, much better than the popular Primacy 4.

if you happen to want to travel to singapore (in the future post MCO), you can get it there. Whip out the carousell app for singapore region.

i got a pair lightly used 2nd hand to try out pre MCO, pretty thick thread, costs about rm310+ after conversion. Doesn't chip, but quite a pebble magnet due to the tread pattern. Road rumble is a little lesser, but don't expect miraculous level of improvements. The rumble will gradually get worse anyway as the tire ages and hardens.

The funny thing is that the cpc6 is a little wider physically compared to ps4 despite same aspect profile.

Tire width is quite varied because some are more squearish and some more rounded. PS4 is one of those more rounded one. If you see extreme category like AD08R, it's a lot more squearish, noticeably wider. AD08R is so much wider that it's 235 tread width is almost like PS4 in 245!

The sidewall height is pretty much similar or not much noticeable difference but the tread width is quite varied. So like now on my Evo 9, I use 17x9jj rims with AD08R 235/45 and it still looks just square. But on my Mark X 18x9jj rims I use CSC3 size 245/40 and it looks slightly rounded or very slight stretch.
