I need some suggestions for this size
Currently i am using xm2 the previous version for about 4 years now and it is very noisy and not gripping in the wet ..started cracking on the upper sidewall and chipping as Michelin has chipping issue
I have considered some tyres such as es32 yokos,dunlop j6...these i know for now...i don't want xm2+ because the car used only for short trips..

And budget no issue as this size not so expensive

Dunlop j6 feels almost like xm2, cc6 is good mid budget tyre too.

Kumho PS31

But only got 165/55/14 size.

Or Yokohama ES32?

Hankook Eco2 K435

+Apr 19 2022, 07:37 PM-->So,j6 is almost the same as xm2 but a bit less mileage..ok will take note

Ohh no too small for myvi...how about the yokos are they ok..will they lose grip overtime because xm2 after 50% the grip is worsening until spinning in wet with only half throttle which is such a waste can't use the fully use the tyre

I am using Yokohama Es32 and on 2nd set for my Kelisa, no issues also.
BTW you always race in rain or what can drive until spinning in wet?

If you want the best, currently Falken SN832 tops the chart for 175/65/R14 tires.

No i dont race in the wet, especially myvi,my xm2 started wear out outer tread due to absorber kong ready,at stop light sometimes the left tyre will spin even half throttle when accelerating and also started cracking

Hmm looks like falken good also,and btw what is the threadwear on es32,anyway thanks for your suggestions

175/65/14 - toyo

There is a tread for this.

Any review for Viking CT6 tyre? Planning to change two and friend's feedback is ok, no complain for this budget tyre.

You already mentioned budget tires, so not much can shared. The most need to be carefull during driving in wet as lower cost tires usually is not that good in wet handling & braking situation.

Thanks for the feedback!
Yes, just for city driving and hopefully last another 1-2 years before my rear tyre worn out as well, as have plan to change car in the future.
