Shock when i saw that news too. lolUHP? MC6? uh...
Awaits for those feedback and reviews.yes, as far as i've been told the MC6 now competes with Michelin's PS4, whereas the CSC will go against the PS4 S now. I had the pleasure of sampling the MC6 yesterday at Sepang, please stay tuned
Yes bro, i was waiting for CPC6 too. But then comes out with MC6 which upgraded to UHP with traction AA.Hmmm... was actually waiting for their CPC6. Probably Asian market change to MC6
Great aspirations. But I am so skeptical. And objectively testing tires isn't easy so...yes, as far as i've been told the MC6 now competes with Michelin's PS4, whereas the CSC will go against the PS4 S now. I had the pleasure of sampling the MC6 yesterday at Sepang, please stay tuned
CPC6 developed by joining CSC5 to CPC5, that is why the test showed good result....Yes bro, i was waiting for CPC6 too. But then comes out with MC6 which upgraded to UHP with traction AA.
This time the comparison was done against the older MC5, so it's hard to see how it fares. But the MC6 has definitely grown up and shows traits of a UHPGreat aspirations. But I am so skeptical. And objectively testing tires isn't easy so...
the MC6 will compete against the PS4 actuallyInteresting coz there should already be CPC6 to compete with PS4, so curious where this MC6 is positioned. Maybe even though UHP but still entry level, need to see the tread wear rating then might give more indication. CPC series usually is 280 so if this MC6 is still 340 like MC5 then should be harder compound with lower grip.
that is very true, there's also the Conti Cross Contact, which is also a UHP for SUVsConti models very confusing. Those days got comfort, premium and sports category, now got Max which is in between CC and CPC. Later got UC between CC and MC, Now MC goes into UHP higher than CPC.....lol
Many more models if include SUV, like 4x4Contact, 4x4 Sports contact, Performance tyres like Force Contact, Extreme Contact, then Eco Contact, etc........lolthat is very true, there's also the Conti Cross Contact, which is also a UHP for SUVs
Conti cheaper range of tyres are Vikings loh. Much like Dayton to Bridgestone....lolConti realises their tire is much more expensive compared to competitor and create sprt of 'strip down' version like toyota vios j or proton saga sv...
anyway hope the price also 'strip down'.
Hey Tom, did Conti indicate a price range? If cheap then PS4 no fight imho. PS4 is still stupidly expensive and is still price king amongst the UHPs. If the MC6 does have UHP characteristics and isn't just hype then pricing will probably be key.the MC6 will compete against the PS4 actually
PS4 actually not that expensive coz made in Thailand. F1A3 seems more expensive and also CSC5, coz both still made in Europe.Hey Tom, did Conti indicate a price range?

And why would they want to compare with MC5? I guess they didn't want to tread on anyones toes?
CPC6 was also mentioned to compete head to head with PS4....the MC6 will compete against the PS4 actually

Looking at Conti pricing it won't be cheap.Hey Tom, did Conti indicate a price range? If cheap then PS4 no fight imho. PS4 is still stupidly expensive and is still price king amongst the UHPs. If the MC6 does have UHP characteristics and isn't just hype then pricing will probably be key.

Well, Asean made got preferential duty rate...PS4 actually not that expensive coz made in Thailand. F1A3 seems more expensive and also CSC5, coz both still made in Europe.
Btw this MC6 tread pattern looks more like a SUV/truck tire.
Probably with MC6 the CPC6 won't make it hereCPC6 was also mentioned to compete head to head with PS4.
i supposed many tyres can now soon compete against the PS4, the one to watch are PS4 S competitors these daysCPC6 was also mentioned to compete head to head with PS4.
What I know is prices will begin at RM350, which would mean the 16 inchersHey Tom, did Conti indicate a price range? If cheap then PS4 no fight imho.

PS4S is for elite already, comes in 19" and 20", even MC6 enter the higher market with 17" with a single 16" size....i supposed many tyres can now soon compete against the PS4, the one to watch are PS4 S competitors these days
