My review on kumho ku36, and toyo r1r.

[vr2turbo]

with reference to KU36, SX2 can do the job. performance and more comfortable than KU36 due to relatively softer side wall but still stiff enough for hard corners. my friend and I just did 70 laps in south sepang within 3 hours, the tread seems like new with slight reduction of thread height.

Wah! really durable....

For daily use you can try out from 32 to 36 and see which suits you best. The pressure is all personal preference and different people set differently. If also depends on car setup, tyre model etc.
For example my VR using GY Asy 2 I use with 35psi but with GT Radial HPY I prefer 33psi as the sidewall is harder.

As for track again you have to find the setting that suits you best.
For drag usually more air pressure even up to 38psi.
For track I have friend using less air pressure because tyre heats up fast and when pressure goes up too high they start to loose traction. Again not too low as too little air pressure tyres overheats very fast. Setting also depends on track temperature....

If from PJ, can try the shops in Sunway area. Hup Shun, and another shop at the corner on the main road.

You are welcome.
The other shop also can be seen from main road just further down and yes near the foodcourt.
Worst case can check out Klang tyre shops....

Nice...how much were they? And where did you get them from?

I got them at rm300/pcs for 195/50/15 but that's also because I joined their sponsored local race. scenes. I heard the original would be around rm340. One thing is for sure the tyres are grippy. Hard to teach the grip limit on normal roads
