Maybe have to wait for Fit Type R in 2015. I-DCD Sport Hybrid system, with 190 PS and 27.8km/l (!).

Rumor only though (so take the figures with load of salt...:biggrin:)

its good for your current setup. unless you chang engine, suspension, etc. then might want to change to a grippier tire or something.

from my experience, the tire choices boils down to a few things.

1. sidewall stiffness. stiffer, better cornering, but lose a bit of comfort. softer sidewall, better comfort and quieter but lose a bit of steering accuracy/feel, also affect noise level (nvh for vibration and hardness, but I omit these since they are too marginal.

2. tire compound, softer, more grip, faster wear, and harder, more lasting but less grip, also affect tire noise level

3. thread pattern, more threads, better resistance to aquaplaning, but less grip in dry. also less threads usually mean more noise (but also dependent on 2.

4. price. good tires are damn expensive.

So far I've tried many, but since new models keep coming out, so its a never ending story. keep trying set after set till you find one that you like.

Ever wonder when you will really get your ass screwed by the most unsuspecting person?

A greedy uncle who help tow my car to the nearest shop gave me just that, a damn RM500 BILL!!! EPIC RAGE on my part when i saw that number.

This is a damn crime against a person who only need a small favour, and i would gladly pay the fee of the proper RM150 cost!!! Damn im pissed, isn't there any other way i can settle this?
