alright. thanks. seems that fit my budget too.
any recommended workshops and the estimated price? klang is too far and worried about the cases there.
is kee hin tyreplus at old klang road ok?

185/55/15 PS3 would be the best wet weather tyre you can get. I think its about 260 270 ea for that size. I used the vios 15" rims on myvi to get to 15", if your myvi is not 15" yet coz the 14" don't have any good tyre.

PS3 come in 15" and up;
PS4 for 17" and up, no PS4 for tiny wheels .

keehin OKR very good service and fast, fresh tyre.
alignment also great.
price will not beat klang but reasonable for KL area.
no camber scam issue.
I run 2 sets of PS3 from keehin already.

Most probably a Myvi's preferred Front camber is unfriendly to cornering at high enough speed.

I would first sort out this , and think about how to deal with rear camber and toes which are factory un-adjustable because it has a rear torsion beam?

Negative 1 camber as prescribed by kee hin also can botak outside edge of then-PP2 when I drove my godcar like hell.

A maivee should not brake in the corner as its already very front heavy.
Braking makes it worse, it lift up the rear.
Need to brake in the straight and lightly accelerate thru the corner, press the gas to press the rear down.

Michelin even with top of the range aquaplaning is not always the top of the class, the only best for Xm2+ is it can last longer and the rest like wet & dry braking performance will not wear much even after long use, this is their real advantage.

Do not mix aquaplaning with wet braking, these 2 are different category. I always heard a lot of people say it but aquaplaning means you need to drive thru certain water level at a certain speed without loosing control, Michelin is not the best in this category. If want solely better aquaplaning tires, Falken & many other brands (even Maxxis) also can beat Michelin in this category. Aquaplaning are tested via Straight Aqua & Curved Aquaplaning, just google about tyre review.

There's a marked diff between grip with lower grade eco tyres vs PS3 or Primacy3.
With PS3 hardly activate ABS and worth every penny as I can use them to 0% (hit the TWI).

Other tyres like Fxxken 912, Yoko C-drive at 30% already activate ABS in standstill jam when its raining.
