Hi , TS what do you think about Falken FK510 for 215/45/R17 as im currently on RE004 and it kinda noisy especially near end of their life, it last me 50k Km

which is the quietest tyre for c segment car?

Could not find any label indication for Toyo CR1. For Nexen RU1 , it is label A for wet and RR D.

Based on this RU1 would be my choice .

Hello tire sifu, would like to know can a 185/55 r15 fit on my current rim that hold a 195/50/r15???

Owning a kei-car and the standard size is 165/50R16 but unable to find a shop that selling this size? Is there any way to purchase it locally? Or should I opt to change to a new rim with a more common size?

Toyo CR1 is my goto alternative for comfort and quiet. But no where near quiet as Primacy.
Do they still have NE3?

Happy New Year everyone!
Any recommendations for 15inch performance tyre with good wet grip? Using xm2+ but doesn't feel like it achieve what I want, it's wet grip just ok for me

hi sifus, was wondering if its okay to change the front 2 tyre first and change the rear one later on ?

actually any difference if put behind rather then front ?
may i know why you recommend doing so ?

205 45 r16 for myvi gen 3

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

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.

hi all,
currently on a set of UC6, 215/55/R18 milage 4,500km. as these few days raining, personally i find it is not really great for wet.

any recommendation for other tyres?

215/55 i just change to conti mc5 now. satisfy from previous cars 225/45 and 245/40. should perform similar.

btw bridgestone turanza is even better. at cost of short lifespan

Coming from Primacy 4, after using them for 3 years; previously was on PS4 which only lasted me 2 years - I'm deciding between the Michelin Primacy 4ST, Continental UC7, Continental MC6 and the Kumho HS52.

The PS5 is very tempting, with the steering feel, ZR rated (I do a lot of 200kmh driving) and overall performance. What's turning me off is the road noise, rolling resistance and the relatively short longevity, not really useful when I do KL JB commutes majority of the time. I don't skimp on tires, but I value safety, quietness and longevity these days. Which one should I go for? 215/55/17 btw

tahu treadwear spec ?

hi, how's the aquaplaning & wet grip? if compare with PS4

It is recommend to rotate tires every 10000km, while at it, do we have to balance them as well?

How about for alignment at what interval should we do it? Thanks!

I practiced do all 3: rotate, alignment & balancing every 10k km intervals for all my cars
