205/50R15 is still under consideration, don think gonna be practical driving in town :rolleyes:
Federal RSRR 205/50/15 is grip grip grip. No such thing as not practical. :biggrin:

Despite that, I am still eager to try RE003. It is supposed to have better dry grip and hell a lot cheaper. Im gonna get it next! So any taker for second hand PS3 with 95% thread? :biggrin:
Jom group buy. Nexxen AU5 can kiss my :reddy:

Yes this place so far gives very competitive prices, one of the cheapest if not the cheapest.
Depends on what tyre brand also. If they are top dealer of that brand usually they can sell cheaper. But OS Autocare major brands will have.....:driver:

KU36 is way above any UHP. Good dry grip can be whacked for track, loud noise after 40% of usage.

so im back with new tires, but farrrrr from all your valued recommendations. running on Maxxis MA-P1 which is advertised as "performance touring tires" on their site, RM190/piece all inclusive in Taiping.

am gonna stick to these until i get new set of rims, along with new rubbers. choices are still between re003, ps3 and v12 depending on pricing in that near future :bird:

Once the tyres are classed as touring tyres they are more for normal use, a balance of comfort and performance or sort of mid range tyres. Performance tyres are usually Ultra High performance and for Maxxis the Victra range as in MA-Z1 or their newer I-Pro model

I dunno how other Sylphy drivers drive. In the club i saw someone claiming that his Landsail tyres are good.

:confused:
