Blue streak belongs to Goodyear already. The time when I was using I think they acquire the brand. However they have change the pattern too.

When I was using looks like this..Blue Streak Stiletto


Now looks like this...Now called Goodyear Blue Streak Stiletto


Nope, don't intend to use extreme or semi slick. Tyres are expensive, not comfortable, noisy and not good for wet road. I use my car for daily so usually is UHP or Max performance tyres are the way to go.

Yoko Fleva V701 replace S Drive are UHP if not mistaken. V105 still their flagship model. Yes, same as RE-003 as to me BS still have other higher models. That is why when PS4 tested against RE-003 just because they are selling well in the market along PS3.....lol
Blue streak from what country? In a way, the thread looks slightly similar to ATR Sport.

Might be a bit hard to compete if the Fleva is more expensive... But not to the price of PS3 isn't it?

Blue Streak is local, if not should be from one Asean county under Goodyear, as now in Goodyear MY website dy. Very cheap these tyres, my size 215/45R17 also around RM210 or so only....:driver:

Fleva should be around PS3 pricing, but depends on the sizes.....:driver:

Under RM300 for 215/45/R17 is very cheap. Somehow, you often managed to find cheap budget tyres and yet they still serve you quite well despite not coming from a famous brand. But then, the Viking City Tech that I am using is also doing quite well. Cheaper than Goodyear duraplus and also more reliable... Able to hold in air pressure well too unlike the Goodyear which always seems to need pumping.

So, Fleva is like a direct competitor to PS3...

bro VR,

I think saw your car few times around PJ old town near Chen Moh chinese school. Was it you always makan there? What I often see about budget tyre is usually it tends to wear and crack a lot faster than expected. I'm also using GT Radial HPY for about 1.5yr. Can see fine lines on the shoulder area. Just normal drive and seldom attach corner.

Hahahaha. But it seems that you tend to test review the less commonly chosen brands instead of the famous ones. Or because famous ones already got many reviews, so you don't have to do it. :biggrin:

So, did you stick with Blue Streak Stiletto until it is time to change tyre or you changed it before the end of its lifespan?

Most tyres I did not finish. Only Asy 2 I kept transfer to my Sonata and the HPY that I recently took off. Asy and Stiletto was given to my mechanic, he and his son finish for me.....hhahahhaha

See next month if my size Asy 3 comes might change then these Land Golden can go to my Sonata. Asy2 also times up as coming 5 years already....
