which brand of 195/55/15?

[ColdPlay]

Hi there, actually i'm going to use te37 rota grid on my wira..is it 195/50/15 ok to be used? will going to do some fender work after install these tyres..or 195/55/15 better?

Few friend running 195/50/15 on their Wira rota grid setup. Another one running on 195/55/15. its just a matter of hi-lo suspension setting and fender works or even spacer.
Lowered Wira with hard suspension and not even a single finger clearance are what hellaflush is all about . Protruding looking wheels too(more obvious on 195/50/15).

Looks matter on rota grid. Toyo T1R will give a more menacing stance due to the deep directional tread.
Since you're going to spoil the tyres' structure anyway, Achilles ATR Sports is more like it. hahaha.

rota is good for cornering or only for looks?

 

[LesleyAprotto]

the manufactured date of Turanza is stated as week 23 of yr2012 haha, bt Toyo Proxes T1R is week 47 yr2011= =are they considered ok?:hmmmm:

Anything newer than 2010 is OK I suppose...

Cornering more to tyres and suspension...rims, well depends on the offset....

Hehehe, currently this is my favorite size, B segment car oni bro, not yet venture to R16 and above

R16 the jump in price is not worth it, might as well go 17" if can fit.....

Wira if no engine mod 195/50R15 will be better, diameter closer to original size. If want fuller look without lowering then 195/55R15 will fill up the wheel arch but pick up may suffer a little.[/QUOTE]

hmm..i juz mod my wira a 4-2-1 only..compare 50 with 55, i suppose that 55 will slightly comfortable?:hmmmm:
anyway might lowered it after see the effect..but at this moment hvnt decide yet..

Yup, FM901 is noisy. If using 195/50R15 V12Evo is slightly over RM200 only

195/50R15 cheaper then 195/55R15(normally), but both sizes are popular & easy to find.

For your budget, I think Falken best suit your choice.

hw about Toyo Proxes T1R and Bridgestone Turanza ER300? I heard about their price today and i feel like is kinda worth
are they good to be used? which 1 is better? if i using 195/50/15 8jj will it be not comfortable?
open for all type of opinions

I think u try to mean Bridgestone Turanza ER30, this tyre very soft, silent but easy to worn out(30~40k), and dry performance average.
Toyo T1R mainly for performance, so don't expect silent ride, but mileage no bad if u take care the pressure & tyre rotation.

 

[Cardin]

very noisy
ok...

so falken 912 is my choice

 

[mh wong]

falken 912,.....better not play2 at cornering loh......especially after 50% tread used....wat i means high speed ye...

 

[vr2turbo]

There is a ER300 model...

 

[dkny]

There is a ER300 model...

ER300 not available in Malaysia for Size 195/55R15(except PI)
Only Turanza ER30 available.
go try Bridgestone Malaysia , drop them an email or contact for inquiry.

eventually i went for Yokohama Blueearth with 195/55/15 in price of RM230 each, noise level is comfort & acceptable, grip is well in dry and wet. although it is mentioned to be fuel saving tires bt i hvnt sense any decrease in fuel consumption

 

[dkny]

no significant drop in FC, but u notice slightly a bit better when u run in highway.

Right foot still heavy.... Even have savings will be very little if in town...too much traffic jam....

Depends on how heavy is your foot like Vr2turbo said
I'm using Michelin XM2, claim to save fuel too. It does whenever I don't step on too much
but is just so much u can save if u r driving in traffic jam, cuz at tat time is not the tyres
that are causing bad FC.

vr2turbo, what 195/55/15 tyre has super stiff sidewalls? C-drive2 bloody flexes when I push it a little harder and that flex movement is a bit scary. I need something harder otherwise I'll have to upgrade to 16"
