Michelin ps3 215/45/17

[hex999]

I am into semi performance, normally cruising and once in a while will tekan.
I also care about FC and most importantly grip. I never speed when raining so Im not really interested in wet grip tyres. My mom was using another version of michelin and it lasted quite long, up to 2 years, as i know michelin has good durability compared to other tyres if im not mistaken

So is michelin ps3 a good option? and anyone got lubang/contact for this tyres? I heard is around RM515 for one piece, can go any cheaper than that?

Your mom could be using a different model like XM1 which is more durable then PS3. PS3 is max performance therefore durability should be lower but then a lot depends on driving style, car setup, road conditions and so on.
For your size you can try GY F1 Asy 2 which should be slightly cheaper then PS3 and Made in Germany

well if it's slightly cheaper, I would rather go for michelin, any of you got lubang for this tyre?

I always hear that its cheaper in klang and they call it kedai papan or something..

Well most of us do i guess, alot of people are saying that the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 is much better than ps3 if base on performance but well some say it has high wear and tear, its noisier than ps3.

I am preferring a bit of comfort and low wear and tear, if im wrong, I will certainly go for Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2.
What do you guys think? either ps3 or Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 would be a better setup? In my point of view, i would go for longer lasting cause im not the type who will take high speed corners daily, maybe once in a while and prefer quieter tyre and better quality.. really stuck in making my decision.

I am on one set of Asy 2 now in my turbo ride. Have not tried PS3 because more expensive. I have members on PUG 308 who prefer the Asy 2 over PS3, in fact they say is quieter and more comfort.
I have another member on PS3 in a MPV who actually wanted to try Asy 2 but it does not come in 55 series. He mention PS3 is fast wearing in his MPV.
Asy 2 is Made in Germany and PS3 from Thailand. Some bigger sizes from EU also.
If your priorities are comfort and quiet then Yoko Advan V551, BS GR-90 or even Toyo C-1S can be looked at. If into Michelin then the Primacy LC. These are comfort performance tyres

Well im starting to change my mind about ps3, after doing some research, I notice that the ps3 is more to confort, however the PSS is sports orientated.

Anyone knows the current pricing of PSS? tried calling the kedai papan but no answer,
I guess i might be going for the good year cause its really value for money.
And thanks for your comments bro, your advice really opened my eyes :D

many of my friends were recommending MY01 and ps3, after doing some research, many stated that the Asy 2 is much better in all aspects. Saw many forums said PSS is better than Asy 2 but its too expensive.

You can forget about PSS, as the smallest size according to Michelin website is 245/40R18.
Whether one tyre is better then the other depends also on the car and setup. In tyre reviews that I have read one tyre can come out top and in another test some where in the middle and that depends on the size tested also.
Best to gauge is that the tyre tested comes out most of the time at the top, or even if from forum members review should always be more positive. If there are a lot of negative for sure it is bad already....

Well... all those above is not counted value for money, if value for money go for nexen n6000.

Money for value does not mean the tyres to be cheap but with reasonable performance too.
N8000 maybe be a notable candidate, but N6000 more for comfort not performance

Alright i think i made up my mind, I am going to try the good year Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 instead of michelin ps3, do you guys think this is a wise decision ?
