QUOTE(volrath @ Sep 23 2020, 11:35 PM) I did asked, but doesn't seem to be much of use, especially for CBU cars. Aih.. I guess I'd wait till I pick up the car tomorrow and decide based on the input I will be receiving in this thread. But I'm more inclined to change straightaway for now. Thanks for your input bro. I've used PS4 on previous ride, so Primacy 4 is new to me, but thanks for your comparison between the 2! Just use first la. Change straight away also still counts as used tires and tire shops will still low ball you! Sportmaxx 050 is same UHP class almost like PS4, not as good but should be similar, while Primacy 4 is obviously 1 category below PS4. |

QUOTE(volrath @ Sep 23 2020, 11:49 PM) So in a way, it looks like an upgrade, lol. I really have little knowledge about this MAXX. Thanks for your input bro! Primacy 4 is also overpriced. If want comfort touring tires, Bridgestone Turanza T005 is a much better value for money so you can instead consider that in the future. |

QUOTE(dwRK @ Sep 24 2020, 02:07 PM) I'm holding out for Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2... no idea when coming though.... haiz what is your view on lassa tyres... they look quite comfy type Lassa is like the cheap low end of Bridgestone, maybe like Dayton? I read some of the reviews on their top model and many said it's horrible! I personally wouldn't touch it. |

QUOTE(gacktleong @ Sep 24 2020, 06:47 PM) my another ride is using k120 Really high in CP ratio, too bad its is no longer in the market K120 is best value for money, it's a pity if they don't bring in anymore. In the website it's still listed. |

QUOTE(volrath @ Sep 25 2020, 12:08 PM) So seeing how responsive you guys are, which I can't thank enough, I thought I should give an update. I got the car yesterday, and driving and clocked about 100km yesterday, and another 50km. It feels like PS4 haha..but a bit more on the noisier side. This morning rain was mad, I felt the ride super stable, but it is noisier god damn haha, guess I get what I did not paid for xD Wet grip is nice! Just turn up the music a bit louder la. 😅 During rain everything also becomes noisy. |

QUOTE(volrath @ Mar 19 2021, 10:50 AM) Total regret hahahaha... Fk man this tires is noisy af! I totally will not recommend this to anyone (from my personal experience) Can't wait to change to something else once the thing going botak. I'm thinking Michelin Primacy 4 if Pilot Sport 4 is too much for the way I drive (I'm a very sedate driver). I dont have enough knowledge about other brands though... Hahaha then looks like just touring tire category more suitable for you. Maybe try find Turanza T005A, should be better value for money than Primacy 4, or just get whichever cheaper you can find between the 2. |

QUOTE(amscouzach57 @ Mar 19 2021, 02:26 PM) Your driving pattern is not aggressive. I suggest to just keep using the stock tyres until the time comes to change them. Although tyre you got is a UHP tyre from Dunlop. Shouldn't be that extreme in terms of grip & harshness. Please leave us a review on the tyres later Bro, he had followed that advice and used it for 6 months now and gave his feedback just above! |

QUOTE(neuromancerx @ Mar 22 2021, 06:33 PM) This will be my budget comfy tyre list, sort in preference: K125 Es32 Primacy4 To he honest, k125 will give better value. I compared side by side with ps4, they shared a lots of design characteristics. The only major difference will be the material and sidewalls. I'm currently using ps4, but will consider k125 for next purchase. It's 50% cheaper than ps4 (for size 225/45/18) Well material and construction are a huge factor that determine tire performance and quality. But yeah at just 50% the price of PS4, it could be a good value for money. Reviews on this K125 seems pretty good in the dry and at least quite decent in the wet, probably at least can give Primacy 4 a run for its money. |
