Recently i tested this Sumaxx max drifting tires for 1.5 weeks.

About the tire:
Threadwear 300, tire thread pattern like yokohama ad08r, stiff sidewall, no humming sound like semi slick tires.
Bought rm200 per piece for 195/50/16 inch.

Very grippy in dry. Road feedback very good, handling corner tight tight. Grip i would say its definitely better than michelin ps3. Wet grip at 110km/h still confident to change lane.

Dry grip much much better than my previous tire. Using rovelo sport A1, 160km/h i already have the uncomfortable pit in my stomach and i will drive very far away from the front car. With this sumaxx tires, drive till 220km/h also still confident. 240km/h then only bola hilang.

Conclusion:
Cheap and cheerful tire for car enthusiast. Very much recommended for spirited driver. But need to be more careful in wet road since the tire pattern is quite aggresive.
Ps: drive fast but carefully ya.

Ok

Doubt no brand tyre can have better dry grip than Michelin ps3

Man, at high speeds where life is on the line, I'm sticking to my ps4.

jangan lost control langgar rider grabfood ye.

You quote pun no use la... You cant compare treadwear between brands..

Its like u ask mamak to put 2 spoon of gula.. One mamak can use sudu kecik, another will use sudu besar.. No two mamak will use the same size sudu to make comparison.

No such thing as drive fast but carefully

I doubted it too at first.

My first try on no brand tire was the rovelo sport A1. Supposingly better than toyo T1R. Nope, its badddd.
This is my second try on no brand tire and I was really impressed with the grip for the price point.

Tires I had tried so far.

Toyota corolla AE101 with 4AGE blacktop engine, 6 speed manual 165 hp - Dunlop D05, Michelin PS3, Toyo T1R.
Nissan Sentra B13 with SR20VE 20V, 6 speed manual 225 hp - Rovelo sport A1, Sumaxx Max drifting (current).

To be fair, most probably the michelin PS3 has better wet grip than the sumaxx.

T1R and TR1 are both shit.

Ya I know about this. Just write down the spec je, kot kot got people want to know.

You could not pay me to not use Michelins or Pirellis.

bravo ts got balls put on the line on cheap ass tires.

ts on the road to becoming statistics too.

good ffeeedback.. was planning to get rovelo for track day .. now i can skip that shit n go summaxx then

Actually 3 tires are in my list last time for no brand.
Rovelo road racer R1.
Accelera 651.
Sumaxx Max drifting.

My first choice is Accelera but only 1 shop selling and he selling RM250 per piece plus need wait few days.
Rovelo nobody selling at my place.
Sumaxx many people selling and its cheap at rm200. So I take la.

My kawasaki on Pirellis

Almost got the TR1 hahaha.
Yeah T1R is just acceptable. Still ok la if you support it with adjustable suspension. Bunyi a lot but it won't actually buang if control properly.

I use bluearth a

+1. Tyres are the only contact between the car and the road. No point stinge on tyres, always go for the best. U will nvr know when u need ur tyre the most, so always have the best.

Rather get a low budget phone and spend the rest of the money on a better tyres if i cant afford it.

Of all things in the car. I will not skim on 3 things

Tyres
Brake pads
Lubricants




Buy tyres also want to save money.
Sigh

again .. i agree with most here .. if budget permits .. go with the proven n tested tyres like conti, michelin, yokohama.. etc

reason im going these sumaxx, rovelo, accelera, zestino is purely due to tracking and drifting events.. u burn ur ttyres faster than anyting else

Wadapak RM150 cheaper a piece compared to normal tyres. Don't trust china crap.

any indicative pricing on 18"s

rovelo and accelera running around 340ish

zestino running around 440ish

if the sumaxx is 400ish then better off go zestino.. fren touge and dailies on zestino's so far ok

One of my rovelo tire got 4 lubang in my 2+ years usage. No leak whatsoever. Repair once enough. Big nail,screw all ok.
Previously my toyo T1R, kena 2 lubang, then always leaking. Haiyo no use la.
China tires also reliable la.
You living what age d? Nowadays china car so high tech also reliable already.

I living in stone age, so dun follow me. Buy watever tyre u like, as long as u happy.

Even with proper control still so so only. Currently on RE004. So far so good but haven't go up UY or GH routes yet. Not really into it since it's quite far actually

Need to find some twisty roads near Klang to play with.

what the fish...I just googled.

SO CHEAP SUMAXX RM275 only for 18 inch.

https://shopee.com.my/Tayar-SemiSlick-SUMAX...4248.6368414490

Cheap not good

Good not cheap

Used:
Continental
Bridgestone

Next would be Michelin

Good for you TS. Don’t care about those who are skeptical on China made tyres. Let them continue to buy high price Michelins etc.

Another brand you can try is Altenzo which has been around for quite some time.

RM200 for 16" is very cheap

gule mahal nowdays
we use tea spoon to kira

why not 205/50/16 ?

Other than the tyres that come with the car I will never use any other brand other than Michelin.

I used to run Achilles ATR Sport that came with the car and it was pretty good tbh even with all the bashing I got when I refused to switch until I used it proper enough. It was kinda fun tbh being able to lose the back end ever so slightly.

And then I switched to PS4 last year and the grip is so immense that it has become a tad bit boring haha. Amazing tires though. After trying the PS4 and PS3, I doubt I’ll be able to opt for anything else after this. Bloody expensive for 18s though.

Front x lepas. If i fully turn will rub my inner fender. Only way is go down to 205/45/16 but i like a bit of comfort so i use 195/50/16

I tried PS3, PS4, Fleva V701, Primacy 4.

PS4 > All

All your tires are having almost same thread pattern. Nothing too aggressive with big ribs. So not surpring ps4 took the lead.

No thanks, will stick with my stickier Advan A052

how much is a human life ?

cheap tyres !!!

always go for brands that are trusted

What tyre can rival PS4?
(That is around the price range)

I think for overall performance. Meaning low noise, good wear rate, good grip dry n wet, etc best should be michelin ps4 d. Only bad is price factor, quite expensive.

If you are like me, dont care noise, dont care so much wear rate, only wan super dry grip, acceptable wet and cheap. Then can try this sumaxx. Basically all i care about is grip and price.

oh
hmm price for me is still okla, not very expensive
but my size is 215/45/17
can get 350/donut

I'll stick to my Yokohama V105 tqvm

In comparison, i think in dry grip my sumaxx should be same or better than your ps4. I cant be sure but im comparing with ps3, and the sumaxx feels much grippier in dry grip than ps3.

For your size, sumaxx can get for rm210. Yours rm350 per tire.

Anyone using DeeStone tyres? Vincente.

Used twice now and pretty good.

Cheap, good dry & wet grip, low noice and lasting.

Going for Deestone RA01 once there's stocks. Wanted for a long time now.

I've tried PS3, Conti, Dunlop, Bridgestone turanza...allokay but not lasting and pricey.

Still Deestone is more affordable and good performing so far.

I really doubt you have advan a052.
I mean...on a persona..the grip will only make your car slower..

How bout rain / wet performance

Im using ad08r before, so far a052 is the stickkkees tyre for dry road.
That car already slow, what u talk?

You are telling me you use A052 on a persona?

Why u asking twice? My English hard to understand izzit??

Ok so far. Don't dare test limit because of the thread pattern. But I tested at 110km/h when raining I change lane just a tad aggressive, don't feel like will lose grip or what. Still confident.

Not hard to understand. Hard to imagine/believe

How many km so far? Wear out fast?

Just tested 1.5 weeks la. 400 km thereabout. Still brand spanking new

Sumaxx Z1?

Oh... Hope u review after 10k 20k and till next change.

For pickup truck on 15" steelies
I used Goodride once. Cheap.. 235 per piece. Dry grip OK
But economy wise it just botak too fast. Way too fast. Couple years already botak.

99% (traded in with whiskers) bridgestone HT from stock hilux rim or Yokohama AT lasted much longer. Especially AT tyre since its thicker tread than HT. It still has 70% remaining even after couple years.

-----

For small ride of maivee/mirage class 185/55/15
Had excellent experience with PS2, stiff sidewall, precise cornering, wet grip
Goodyear NCT5, meh.
Yokohama Parada Spec2.. soft sidewall, mushy feel in corner, dry grip OK, wet grip so so

Then after getting mirage
Ecopia hopeless tyre, dry grip also activate ABS when stopping for red light
PS3 first set can use until 0% (legal limit) still feel safe in drizzles
PS3 second set (currently)

-----

For poorfag cruising on old camry 16"
Yokohama C drive, dry grip OK, wet grip scary when almost bald even driving 0-30
Falken ZE912, meh. Cost more than toyo. Grip is not there if its not nice hot sunny day.
Toyo NE03 fronts and shift Falken to the back, grip is more predictable, all rounder general use tyre.
Got a set of 50% Primacy 3 with used 17" newer model camry rims, everything is good but of course won't fight PS3/4, but for general use and occasional spirited driving it suffices.
Next change maybe consider GY F1 Sport or just go with Primacy 4/ PS4. Primacy 4 only 20 bucks diff per tyre with GY F1 Sport.

Saw some ER33 bridgestone but AFAIK these were standard OEM tyre from Toyota, I never used before but I think its kinda overpriced for the brand but performance like NE03? Anyone can comment? I had bad experience with Ecopia

Yup Z1

China tires hit and miss la.
My rovelo sport A1 sucks too. especially in wet

Weird, is that treadwear on the sidewall or website?
on my sidewall "treadwear" 180

for me, so far this tire, compared to my previous evo2v12.
is just a tad better i guess in lateral grip.

Apollo tyre also (VW polo tyre)

Designed for drifting only rather than grip?

Marketing gimmick kot? Yeng ma they say

I see the availability of size is pretty limited from their site.
Only 1 model for 18 inch rim.

P Zero FTW. TS cheapskate.

Question, if PS3 is good enough for dry but much better than this on wet, is this really worth it?

I dont drive fast in wet. And this sumaxx will be rm100 cheaper per tire than PS3 (if it is available).

well, judging from the spec, should be nice budget tyre for dry grip.
looks like no silica compund and AD08R type of thread makes it less wet grip which translate to layman term not suitable for family car.
anyway good sharing ts. bookmarked and will recommend for others.

i tried the following
-Continental ExtremeContact Sports - cheaper than michelin just the wet lose out abit

planning to try the following
GoodYear F1 Super Sport - cheaper than michelin. so far hearing good reviews
