If KU31 was from Korea, like in the past, I can vouch that it is better, but now Made in Vietnam, I don't have much feedback on it, so dare not say......:rolleyes:Achilles ATR sport and Kumho KU31 which one is better?

found this at mudah selling for RM180...open this link Achilles New tyre 195-60-15 - Car Accessories & Parts for sale Kuala Lumpur - Mudah.myhow much for this brand in 195/60/15?any one know ?
Nope, have not tried them, but friends have used and have feedback from them.195/55/15 @ RM165 bought at Danau Kota..
The thread design is suppose good for expelling water.. I never aquaplane b4 though..
vr2turbo, have u tried these tyres before?
:top:Nope, have not tried them, but friends have used and have feedback from them.
Yes the pattern design looks good to channel out water so aquaplaning resistance is good, but for traction you rely on the rubber compound
If your previous tyres are Falken, how old are your Dunlops? Hope you are not keeping them too long like over 4 to 5 years. If you are changing tyres two at a time, the new tyres should be fitted to the rears and old ones to the front to be finished off, and to prevent over steer.Been 1 month + on Achilles ATR Spt 215 45 17, so far so good and in fact lately been raining, best time to try aquaplanning and true enough no complaint but today tried fast cornering @ 90 km/h, felt a bit slide....but i didnt put my leg on the pedal, so was practically rolling with no traction, but i only changes front new tyres, rear remain my good old Dunlop SP Sport.... so far my average journey from home to work and back took about 40 km, so i have tested the tyre, its above average...of course my prev donut is Falken 912, when new its seduce you to push for speed, but Achilles is not bad either...Overall ATR Sport is recommended on a budget....if tight budget, can try Zeta or Mayrun.....if you have spare budget can try Nexxen...but i still feel that some branded ones are overrated....
That is why you are still having a 5 year old tyre. If you change two tyres at a time and keep putting them in front, these will wear out first, but in the rears it hardly wears. Usually rear wear rate is only 15 to 20% of the front. So your old tyre in the rear will become very old.Thanks for the advise bro vr2turbo...btw my dunlops are quite old, more than 5 years old - how do you think..appreciate your adivse, i tot since its at the rear, should be ok, cos i hardly throw corner...btw i alwayz have a soft spot for Goodyear tyre, but due to budget thats y i try Achilles...how do you rate Blue Streak Stileto? Is it better than Nexxen 8000?? how does it compare? appreciate your input
