Tyres Recommendations
« on: June 05, 2010, 10:22:09 PM »
Hi Lation Bros and Siss,

Currently using stock rims and GR80 and now at 70,000km. Gotta change liao!

Any recommendations on tyres? Budget around 100 - 150

Thinking of:

Bridgestone Potenza RE001 ($125) - but its only in 195/55/R15 ... any impact since its 55 ?
Or
Hankook Ventus Prime K105 ($116) - 195/60/R15
Or
Others???

My current tyre profile is 195/60/R15.

Thanks!
GKF

Bro..Federal tyres are juz so n so, provided u get the 595evo model. Its grippy compare to stock and are quieter than the 595ss, if u wan something better from Federal can use the 595RSR

Neuton by YHI the agent for yokohama tyres
This is my second set & i love it to the max, sticky & grippy on dry road & yet performs well in the wet during hard braking and conering no sign of skid feelins...

Noise level is low even after 35k of usage...

Impt thing is the price of my 17" is equalvalent to a jeepun 15"

Cheap good & tua liap
