Need some opinion. Currently using myvi g3 standard rim and tyre. 185/55/15 goodyear assurance tripplemax V1.
I think because of the tyre noise, passenger feel like im driving faster than im really am. So i’m thinking to using a quieter tyre.
After further research i think continental UC7 to fits my need of having quite tyre without having too much compromise on performance or wet safety.
My only concern is below:
1) would it void any warranty coz UC7 smallest size for the standard rim are 195/55/15. While the original tyre are 185/55/15
-> Yes, if strict any changes from original size will void warranty.
2) if i turn the steering at full left or right, would the tyre hit the fender?
- No, coz the increase is minimal +1.7% in diameter size3) does the slightly wider tyre increase fuel consumption by alot? Or it’s minimal for example less than 5%? Y
es, for sure will increase but depends on your feet/fuel padel control4) would it affect the various ADAS feature?
- Yes, coz vehicle height got changes. If strict need to recalibrate = more money waste. Bro, so many tires in market which can provide quiet experience with original size.
If you want quiet and good in wet safety can ask for Michelin XM2+, Yokohama Es32 tires for comparison.
Besides that, did you really confirm is tire or bearing issue? Coz usually bearing is the one which is louder.
