Not many choices now. For me personally I'd only consider these 3: Michelin PS3: probably still the best all rounder in this size for dry/wet/durability but the most expensive too. Potenza RE004: better in the dry, probably just a bit lesser in the wet than PS3, but will wear out faster (tread wear only 220). Price I heard recently has increased a lot almost reach PS3 price Maxxis I-Pro: best value for money, similar to the old Hankook V12E2 but with stiffer sidewall and less longevity (tread wear only 240). Price much cheaper than the 2 above. My son's Swift is using this now, pretty happy. StrikeQUAN, amscouzach57, and 1 other liked this post

QUOTE(AthrunIJ @ Mar 8 2022, 03:27 PM) Depending on the original tyre size and clearance. Well he is asking specifically for that size so P4 doesn't have it. If we assume 195/55/15 is the ideal size already then 195/60/15 is too big of a replacement.195/60 R15 primacy 4 is suitable. My original tyre size is 175/65 r15 |

Well just another option if he found out that it also can fit.Anyways, just go online and use the tyre calculator to see the size comparison to be much more accurate than just basing in the tyre size only. All the tyre shop I went to say 195/55 is the ideal size but not really. 195/60 also fits. So do some more research I guess if he hadn't. Cheers mate |

If it is originally 185/55 then probably not good for 195/60 as it is too big. Seems like 195/55 or 195/50 is the size to look for. Correct me if I am wrong. Cheers dude |

QUOTE(StrikeQUAN @ Mar 9 2022, 08:24 AM) Power loss if can be translated to if you feel it then it is subjective.Overall 195 will feel grippier than 185 as it is a wider tyre. Like it or not you will have power loss when you increase the width of tyres when the engine output stays contant. Your choice bruh. Since myvi original size is 185/60 then choose 195/55 or 195/50 tyre size, 195/60 is too big of a variance. I changed from 175/65 to 195/60 and no regrets. Better comfort and traction during dry and especially wet. Not much different in fuel consumption or acceleration based on my observation. The best investment in any car is a good pair of rims and tyre. Don't skimp on it. Choose the best that your budget allows.

From my own experience just recently switching from Continental (ContactSport) to Michelin (PS4) - quieter, softer ride and feels grippier on the Mich., surer on wet road conditions.

195/55 R15 Myvi Gen3 owner here.
Currently using TOYO CR1 over 1.5 years, so far so good on dry & wet performance, pricing are RM175x4 (include install, balancing, alignment) If you want to find mid range tires, budget not enough to XM2+, I recommend it. I also been used GoodYear Triple Max (when i purchase myvi gen3 factory given tire, just so so, haven't 40k sudah habis) Bridgestone Ecopia EP300, the performance was better than Toyo CR1, the pricing now was getting 200+ , so... sorry next time Toyo Nano Energy3 (NE003),actually was CR1 when NE003 was discontinued, replace by CR1, NE003 was suckkkkk on wet performance... |
