Hmm maybe don't use cc6. My cc6 is about 4 years in. It still have about 60% thread. But during rainy season it gets particularly scary. When rain at 110 can really feel the car not planted.

For this usage it is not within "general use" application but it is performance tyre (wet grip) use case already.
>90 in the wet requires good tyre for safety. Your braking distance is much much longer than the hot sunny day one.

I can vouch for these 2 for quietness and most confy. But I think it's almost impossible to find AE50 tires anymore.

Ehhh, it's back in the market? During one period in 2019, I was finding it for my friend but many shops were saying that Japan don't manufacture it anymore.

Could be the shop tactic (in that neighbourhood) to steer you into buying whatever they have ready stock actually.. not many would spend the time to run out to get stock from distributor I suppose?

If in Klang you go to Hankook logo shop, whatever lobang tyre they got on offer, even Dunlop made in japan, Bridgestone for kancil, etc to Michelin PS2/3/4 everything you want you just name it they can get it for you easily (just wait a little while).

I see. Maybe I might have to keep my expectations in check. However I do rmb driving same car with xm2 and it dosent feel as floaty.

My cc6 can have wheel spin from stop traffic light coming from a 1600cc car. It dosent happen when it was new.

Consider our climate I personally recommend finding a tyre better than cc6. Xm2+ have improved wet grip, about Rm50 more compare to cc6

For wet condition, your tyre should spray away the water fast enough (so that its not floating on water patch).
CC6 pattern doesn't have sufficient full pass through deep grooves and === at the side ribs (corners of the tyre) IMO.. it looks more like those moon and stars that are great for noise cancellation but wet grip..if the water cannot flow into the drain where can the water go (since water is incompressible)?

Compare the CC6 and UC6 tread patterns then you'll see what I mean.

I agree. The tyre threads are meant for noise reduction. However I believe the compound of the Tyres makes a difference as well.

I mean start from traffic light, with just damp road, a car with 1600cc shouldn't spin.

Is a paid review. The brand C in the video is cc6. Can see how bad it performs compare to even Bridgestone ecopia.
For that I kinda don't want to recommend cc6. Is a safety concern for me.

My personal experience with 14" Ecopia on a 1.2L mirage (lighter than a maivee) - easily/often activates ABS by just normal 60-0 stopping for red light on nice hot sunny day afternoon (no rain at all).

After getting a set of 15" stock rims that can actually fit PS3 (185/55/15) .. I find it very hard to activate ABS on the mirage.

CC6 need to drive as slow as lorry in the wet and also follow lorry keep big distance. It is only good for acoustics. Wet grip horrible.

Yoko ES32/AE50 or Toyo NE03 or GY Assurance also not noisy and have better wet grip anytime over CC6.
