It's time for new sets of rubbers.

Priority = Longevity, quietness, comfort with decent grip

Options I have now

Goodyear Eagle F1 Sport ~RM400 per pcs
Michelin Primacy 4 ~RM440 per pcs
Continental MC6 ~RM400 per pcs
Continental UC6 ~RM385 per pcs

What's your take?

PS: It's for F30

Tires for consideration besides from Michelin & Continental above

Bridgestone Turanza T005
Falken ZE310
Hankook Ventus Prime 3
Pirelli Cinturato P7


Personally i will pick Falken ZE310 or Hankook VP 3 due to good value:performance ratio

Mc6 too soft sides for my liking and low treadwear
Ps3 nothing to sholut about. Good tyres in terms of dry/wet roads. Cornering felt safe.
Potenza RF - Feel heavier tyre but very good for quick sprinting start. I think its a more performance tyre...good grip

I've used PS3 before and now tried MC6. In the dry they're both similar, in the wet I feel PS3 is still superior especially in aquaplaning resistance. Comfort wise, MC6 is pretty good, maybe slightly better than PS3 but I don't pay too much attention to this. MC6 when it came out claimed to rival PS4 but I think no cuz it's closer to the older PS3 than PS4 so PS4 is still superior for both dry and wet. One thing though I like how square the MC6 looks when mounted on rims, as if it's 1cm wider than PS3 or many other tires despite the same size. PS3/4 look more rounded.

As for Potenza RF, is this the S001? If so I never tried yet but this is very old model that was already inferior than PS3 based on various tests I read back then. RF type also will surely be harsher tire.
