Stock tire size should be 225/55R19 for 19 inch & 225/60R18 for 18 inch.

Downsizing rims would give you enhanced comfort, at the expense of road handling performance.

Could be cheaper as well.

What is your driving style? Normal, laid back, spirited?

What kind of ride to you want? Superior grip, Comfort, Long lasting mileage?

Michelin Energy XM2+
Toyo Proxes CR1
Continental UltraContact UC7
Falken ZIEX ZE310 R Ecorun
Yokohama BluEarth ES32
Goodyear Assurance Triplemax 2

Michelin Primacy 4?

Maxxis Victra I-Pro?

Went to TMK Rawang (Shah Alam) for those tires, although they are not the cheapest in town, service level was relatively good

225/55R19 size, right?

You could consider Hankook Ventus Prime 4

Most likely, you usually get what you paid for.

Toyo Proxes CR1 is essentially a successor of Toyo NanoEnergy 3, which is an Eco tire.

Proxes CR1 is claimed to reduce road noise by 11% and aquaplaning by 2% compared to the NanoEnergy 3.

So, you can figure it out it's performance.

It is basically an Eco tire, dressed up as an entry level touring tire.

Has the tire been losing any pressure since then?

Also, where is the location of the puncture?

Looks like can last another 4

Toyo Proxes CR1 should fit your description.

It is a bargain.

Some user paid about RM725 per piece in 2022, when new.

Falken Azenis FK510 SUV

TS, have you heard of this Thai tire company, OTANI?

What is your opinion of the passenger car tires from this company?

If that is the case, you can try Maxxis Victra I-Pro.

They are also available in 235/50R18. They should be cheaper than S1Evo3. Less than RM450 per piece.

You are right. However, 235/50R18 is not available for this tire. Which is a shame.

Thanks for the recommendation, I have another tire in my wishlist

I know that UC7 is better than VP3.

Considering VP4 is a huge improvement over VP3, it would be safe to assume VP4 has similar performance over UC7, albeit I'm more inclined to think that UC7 is a bit better overall.

However, based on the price that you've mentioned, VP4 seems like the best value between the 2 tires.

That is consider good price dy. Nowadays 19 inch FK520 would be around RM900 per piece

Still within tolerance max 3%. Only slightly larger diameter at +2.5%.

Can use the same rim

What is the size of your tires?

How many inch are the wheels/rims?

The stock wheels are also not that wide. There is a limit on how much wider tires you can fit

If the price is for 18 inch tires, it is considerably a good deal

However, whether it is worth it or not, depends on the user.

There is a RM200 price difference per tire, as the total difference is RM800 for 4 pcs of tires.

The difference is too big to ignore the value that VP4 brings.

A much fair comparison should be between UC7 & Primacy 4, since the price is closer & performance wise should be closer as well.

Whether it is worth to fork out a bit extra over the extra performance of Primacy 4 over UC7 (comfort & competent braking performance even when worn)
