Pls recommend me a good 205/60/16 tyre for my car...
I would prefer a "rotatable" thread range which means that theres no INSIDE or OUTSIDE use.
One reason is because i can turn inside out the tyres due to uneven wear.
I would also prefer comfort & silent ride together with good grips...
Hope the tyre experts here can guide me on brand name, thread name, price and availabilty location on tyres recommended....
Thanks in advance...:bur nout:

Any tyres also rotatable bro, but if want balance wear and tear, is also depends on how u drive...

Just go for directional pattern tyres...

Including the ones with "INSIDE" and "OUTSIDE"
You mean its OK to put the INSIDE on the OUTSIDE vice versa?

What bro. Supra meant by rotate is front to back or left to right.
What you want is a pattern that can flip inside out. Two different thing altogether.....ha! ha!

Best for you to find a symmetric pattern tyre. Directional and asymmetric will not be to your liking.
However for your tyre size in 60 series aspect ratio, you will not get good grip tyres as in UHP as they come in at 55 series and below. Your symmetric pattern also less nowadays as most pattern are going asymmetric.
Probably can look at GY Assurance

If you are looking to preserve your tyres for longer by rotating, just look for unidirectional tyres as opposed assymetrical tyres. Most tyre brands carry unidirectional tyres. It all depends on stock availability and whether it fits your budget.

Unidirectional pattern, you can flip but have to change sides too. Symmetric pattern you can flip but no need to change sides.....

Dear Brothers,

Correct me If I'm wrong as I'm a bit confused now LOL!

There are 3 types of pattern tyres.

1) Directional/Unidirectional = Same
2) Non-Directional/Symmetric = Same
3) Asymmetric = Standalone.

You are right, but I would not call symmetric as non directional, as asymmetric are non directional too...

Thanks my dear frens who gave good advices...
Very informative indeed..
At first a bit confusing...
But now i understand what our bros meant...
May consider B/S eco green tyres as one of my choices...
Can flip both ways...

Also i prefer 60 series to 50 series because of its softness & comfort
I used before 50 & 55 series but i find it a bit too hard...
May be a little damaging to suspension, steering rod etc if its to hard and bumpy....
Stability wise 50 & 55 series a much better, but i dont drive very fast, so 60 series suits me fine..
What do you all think?
Also a 60 series tyre cost about 20% less than the 50-55 series....

That is because different range of tyres. Probably 50 series UHP tyres against entry level 60 series tyres....
Can look at GT Radial 228, and most of other brands 60 series tyres are mostly symmetric also.....

Thanks for all frens who recommended & gave advices!
