mata sepet case. nvm we can use until flat botak at own risk. in the end still got white line n steel line.

so eco friendly

1. 1.6 mm

2. As long as no sidewall damage or cracks on the sidewall, by all means use it. Tyre lifespan is 10 years.

I could be wrong but maybe check the inner side of the tyre for wear. Cars with slightly negative camber will wear the inners faster than the outer to some extent, so it doesn't actually wear out evenly as what everyone would think.

Thank you. Follow-up, wouldn't tread depth of 1.6 - 2.0 mm affect wet water breaking? Especially on highway driving, speeds above 90km/h.

Yes wet braking is a function of tread depth as the void on the pattern helps you evacuate water.

The question is how bad your wet braking distance will be ?

You could see a quick comparison between the wet performances of a 1.6mm tread depth vs full tread depth tires

MICHELIN Primacy 4+ (new : 22,8m - worn : 31,5m) versus BRIDGESTONE TuranzaT005 (new : 22,6m - worn : 36,4m); CONTINENTAL PremiumContact 6 (new :23,1m - worn : 35,3m); GOODYEAR EfficientGrip Performance 2 (new : 23,8m - worn : 35,5m) competitors.

You loose about 10-14m or so. This is a huge difference especially when it comes to an emergency brake situation on wet.

Hence my advice is , please change your tires ! if not please be aware of the risk you are taking.

Maxxis Victra I-Pro

I am looking for tyre suggestion

Currently, I am on Pilot Sport 3 195/55/r15. Currently looking at getting another set of Pilot Sport 3 (PS3) or Primacy 4 ST (P4ST).
I know one is a performance tyre and one is a touring tyre.

1. Can't find people comparing them. What should I expect if I go from PS3 to P4ST in terms of grip?

2. Which tyre would you suggest? I am pretty happy with my PS3. However P4ST is a newer tyre than PS3

Thank you

Don't think there's Primacy 4 for your size.

Thanks. Yours explanation does make sense and quite logical.

Currently using Bridgestone Potenza, 225 40R 18..planning to change to a more quiter tyre if possible..

Any suggestions..and price range..

BTW using a C180 only..

Tq

Based on my price table, here are some options.

Name Tire Size Price(RM)
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 225/40R18 1110
Kumho Ecsta PS31 225/40R18 435
Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 225/40R18 475
Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE004 225/40R18 479
Continental Max Contact 6 225/40R18 618
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 225/40R18 (NEW PS5) 835

Would say MC6 or PS5 is quiet. But those are easily +200/300 more

Continental UC7 should have that size, right?

What about Yokohama Advan Apex V601? This tyre was reviewed to be a "quiet tyre" even though it is an Extreme Performance tyre. It was reviewed to be quieter than Michelin PS4

V601 is still UHP like PS4. AD08/9R and A052 then are extreme. Anyway this V601 seems excellent in performance for UHP at least in the dry cuz I got a friend using on his 86 and it performs well on touges.

This tire is cheaper than Falken FK510 now. About rm100 per piece cheaper for 19 inch size.

Planning to change to this from my current FK510.

Oh really? Fk510 must have been increasing all the time. This tire should be more sporty than Fk510.

Hi TS,

Thank you for offering such a great service to the community!

I have a question:

Run Flat tyre - 18". My tyre picked up a screw at the sidewall and tyreshop said "it might explode when they try to pull it out (a new tyre may be needed"

Is that true on the statement above and what causes it to explode and not for ordinary tyre (non-run flat). Would u know why?

As i know, run flat tyre has thicker and tougher sidewall. He just pulled it out and didnt explode n yet he didnt bother to patch up the hole.

Thanks!
