Try whatapps Oscar Bukit Kemuning for price. I been their regular tyre shop cz of price. 235/45/18 price difference almost rm150 per tyre vs Kajang shop

Hi sifu, want to ask if i can mix runflat with non runflat tyre?

by right no issue, just once u take normal tyre, u notice how much better in grip, comfort for normal tyre vs RF

Coz im currently running 4 RF & thinking to change 2 of my tyres to normal tyre but just checking if there will be issue if i mix them.

result from google mentioned it will impact handlng.

yes, because runflats are stiffer compared to normal tyres.

if you run normal fronts and rear runflats, you’ll make the car stiffer at the rear which can result in easier oversteer. conversely running runflats at the front and normal rears will make the fronts stiffer, and resulting in more understeer.

but it really depends on the car. if the existing setup is already leaning to oversteer, putting the runflats in the rear can make it very prone to oversteer. But if your car is already understeering then it may not be apparent if anything has changed. Though honestly this will only be a concern if you are driving on the limit, which you shouldn’t on public roads.

Ahh thanks! That's a very detailed explanation

That why I do change tyre straight 4 donuts per change. If wanna prolong the tyre life, send alignment, rotation, balancing at rm60+ for my near home tyre shop, every 15k km

i have a question. is an all weather tyre good for Malaysia or must go summer tyre only?

All weather means also can use in summer, no issue with that.
I used a lot of all weather tires for my SUV, as it can tackle mud situation if got M+S rated on tires.

all season is ok also to use?

Yes, why not. Are you chasing for performance or what? Normal drive no issue with it.

my size is 225/60/17 and not so many options. primacy 4 i use for the hrv is good for comfort but i dont like the way it feels on the road.
falken ze310r is another option and the yokohama xt ae61.
i did some research and i read good things about the kumho crugen hp71 thats why i asked about all season tyres.

I use Pirelli Scorpion Verde which is all season, no issue also.

225/60/17 if you prefer comfort and not demanding, Pirelli Russo, Goodyear Efficientgrip should got similar size.
Budget wise Toyo CR1 also got, another budget brand Giti Comfort SUV520.

Hi littlefire,

Can recommend value for money tyre for
185/60R14
185/65R15

Hey guys! Looking for a touring tire and currently using michelin's ps5..

Size is 235/45/18

I've broken down to a few brands would like the feedback from each model

Goodyear Comforttred - seems like not many ppl use these tires and upon some research some say after 20k mileage the tire behaves differently

Conti MC7 - Most popular tire in Lowyat

Michelin e-primacy - great all rounder

Pirelli Cinturato Rosso - Not too much review on this new tires as well

Hankook VP4 - Great value and comparable with the big guns above


Should I just go with the trusted and tested Primacy? I would love comfort(less noise and less vibration) and good grip from these tires

Same tyre size. Still repeat the Michelin PS4 cz best bang for money, wet grip

In local market, best value/budget now is Toyo CR1.

If your looking for performance tire, PS4 is more better than PS5. PS5 is kinda downgrade and only good for treadwear.

PS5 = Max Performance tire/UUHP

The nearest competition for similar tire category for local market should be the tire models below:-
Michelin PS4 = More better overall performance but treadwear lower
Goodyear Eagle F1 A5/Sport
Falken FK510/520
Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3

The tire model you listed mostly are under premium touring tires which is for normal comfort based.

Read your old replies in other threads about Falken 310 and Falken 832.

In terms of performance : price ratio, Toyo CR1 is better than both Falken 310 and Falken 832?

Yes, coz it is local made and some really can give better value compare to Falken nowadays.
