Picture #1 the front, its tearing up all around
Picture #2 here you can see the front has already hit treadwear marker
Picture #3 the rears are fine..for now..still long way from the treadwear marker





Nothing to claim, since its reach the end of life already. Will be rotating the rear to fronts and once its worn I'll check the prices and see what tyres to get.

I've used PP2 in the past, PS3 is in every way superior, unless you want more NVH, PP2 better at that.

The front being the drive wheel will wear more than the rears, and the peeling is due to the drive.
The marker at the side is just an indicator where the TWI are.

This is where the indicators are


Your tyres can call it a day when reach this point.....

vr2turbo...dunno y la..i'm inclined towards Michelins n i think even their entry levels are a level above other brand's entry level tyres...look at the D01...rating at B n cant even handle hard braking without squeeling like a pig

Yes, I get what you mean, but for their entry level price I can get mid level of others, therefore I rather take the mid. Many forumers and friends who used to be Michelin diehard also change over to other brands already.
Even when I recommend I do recommend Michelin if their priorities are up to there.
As for example, Michelin PS3 when first launched at RM230 per pc for 195/55R15 I recommend the most. In fact almost 90% of people who asked, whether friends or forumers, I told them to go for it. But with the current price now touching RM300, many have shy away from it and going to others like Hankook V12 and some even GY F1D5.
People who know me, I normally on the money for value tyre quest. My tyres of 215/45R17 size, I have used many brands and models already.
Another example, PS2 last time was "THE" tyre. People with the $$$ will sure buy, but people like me, wage earner how to spend RM700 plus per pc, when pther like Yoko, Falken, GY I can get at RM380, that is like buying 2 tyres for the price of one.
I think you know what I mean by now.....:biggrin:

Ya no other better tyres to choose from lo...Hankook V8 is my other choice if I'm not
getting Michelin. So far, the ride is quiet, comfortable and good grip.

No harshness or vibration nor any noise so far.

Recently I was invited by some friends to come visit a local car audio competition and showdown held opposite the Pasar Besar Batu Gajah complex. The event was held on last Sunday, on the 26th of June. The location served as a great spot to gather some cars that were around the vicinity of Batu Gajah area, namely Ipoh, Kampar, Gopeng, Sitiawan and other towns and...
