Hi ts and sifus here. Looking to change my tyres and would love some feedback. Currently using primacy 4 and i already locked my next tyres to be either bridgestone turanza t005a or hankook ventus prime 4. Any feedback between this 2? - main priority is wet handling and braking, as i usually drive fast during rain. My cruising speed during dry days and rainy days are the same - second priority is noise and longetivity. - budget not an issue - definitely wont be going back to primacy 4 as i would like to try other brands. Primacy 5 also no for now, but most likely will be next (after either t005a/vp4). Only interested in touring tyres, not performance tyres. Thank you

QUOTE(DM3 @ Mar 19 2025, 07:47 AM) VP4 is real deal fr grip n performance vs primacy n Turanza n way worth the price Vp4 really that good? To be honest, I never use korean or china brands before, as I am quite sceptical on those. Until now where I keep read good reviews on vp4. Safety is most important. If vp4 really good, then I might try it.

QUOTE(DM3 @ Mar 19 2025, 08:41 AM) Well many users like me started off long time ago with the V12,jus love the grip of course back then sceptical also y cheap n then their reputations/popularity grew. I've used V12 many sets n then s1 Evo n Vp3 ,PS3,ps4,contis,bridgestone, older toyos. Fyi I changed tyres yearly so had many try outs. Thanks man, then I think it’s worth the try. Btw, what is the thread life for vp4? Since u change yearly.

QUOTE(littlefire @ Mar 19 2025, 01:41 PM) Turanza T005a already 1 generation old, Hankook Ventus Prime 4 is the latest spec. https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Hankook/Ventus-Prime-4.htmhttps://www.tyrereviews.com/Compare/Turanza...tus-Prime-4.htmEasily VP4 outpace Turanza T005a Unless Bridgestone bring the latest Turanza T6, if not VP4 all the way https://www.tyrereviews.com/Compare/Turanza...tus-Prime-4.htmActually, in term of reviews and age of tyre, I leaning more towards vp4 as it is newer. Just that I am still skeptical about korean tyres. Furthermore it is cheaper than t005a, so wondering is it reliable or not, lol.
