185/60R15.. was contemplating on the PS3, but they dun have the right size.. only have 195/55R15.. is this alright?

Hi All,

just want to ask, where can i get the Awanza armrest lock? i've broken the lock now want to look for replacement.

anyone can advise?

ps3 is the right choice. both are within the same % rate. all you have to do is check with the tyre shop if your rim can take the 195 width.
if you're not into spirited driving, falken ze912 or yokohama c.drive is fine. falkenze912 being more comfortable and quiet.

thanks for the advise.. much appreciated..

ya u can take Ziex 912 or Advan Neova AD07*which i saw on Automart forum* i also wonder where they get this tyre from ?? ORI from Japan ??
haha...
but for normal usage 912 is already enough or U wanna take michellin XM1 which is ECO tyre as they said. btw , i just using Brigstone ER60 but going to change it soon since the thread is getting less and less for high speed cornering..

XM1 read reviews which were quite bad.. poor grip in wet conditions, etc..

may check out the ze912 tho..

prefer not to meddle with the standard tyre size, which is 185/60R15, but if i did and opted for the PS3 which comes in 185/55R15 and 195/55R15 (which the guy at tyre shop recommended).. which should i go for?

u can either choose the 912 or u change rim lol..
no choice lol..
From 14" to 15" is 15" better.
if take PS3 then u can choose 195/55/R15 tyre lol..the lower profile u can go , the more tyre u can choose . but the lower profile u go ,the more bummy and more dangerous when u accidently hit a hole or what , ur tyre will easy get blow as ur tyre go thinner and thinner. that just my 2 cents..~

avoid xm1. poor grip and longer stopping distance in hard braking.
stay away from ad07. it's an extreme performance tyre with less tread lifespan. not really suitable for daily ride. good grip and traction but noisy.
if you rims can take 195/55/r15, why not? more contact with surface means better grip / cornering experience. no worry about aqua planning.
with ps3 all round, i could drive 130km/h in karak during rainy day without any worry
in term of comfort, falken ze912 win anytime over the ps3 but best bang for bucks goes to ps3.
vios suspension is a little bit on the firmer side, so, never settled for a profile less than 55.

so u would say that Ziex 912 is best in class??

depending on individual preference / driving style. if you're into comfort and quiet ride, ziex912 will be your best bet.
i've tried quite a few brand in the market. but since i am more into a spirited driving style, i prefer uhp tyre with harder sidewall.
and so far, ps3 was the most impressive at it's price! i noticed it was even slightly better than goodyear gs3!

hi guys.. im a newbies in this forum i own a toyota vios

wut would be a good price range for the PS3? i checked out one shop in jln ipoh.. wanted to charge me RM250 per tyre plus RM20 for balancing etc.. but after reading earlier comments, some have managed to get it for RM200 - 220.. any good place around town or PJ u would recommend other than having to drive to klang?

many thanks.

there is only one alphard that matter and it was the v6 version. the 2.4 variant is under power. even more when with 6 person inside.
alphard is more like a statement(status), less practicality. the 11 seater hyundai starex 2.5td is more powerful and practical.
if am not mistaken, for the wish, umw only carry the 1.8 variant. 2.0 are mostly grey import.

i bought 2x of 195/55/r15 ps3 somewhere in pandan jaya the other day. rm240 + free balancing.i think there is a tyre shop in ss2 that selling around rm240.
check at tyre price list discussion.

seems like alphard not a very good car

maybe i should consider back wish

alphard v6 is fine but the 2.4 variant is quite hopeless when fully loaded. unless you want something more as a statement / show off and less of practicality.
driven a relative's 2.4 alphard to berjaya hills a few months back. was like.....
