Hankook V12 Evo2 finally here

[vr2turbo]

Ya....if PS3 have this size I will use back PS3 but PS3 don't this size
My original size is 185/60/15 I changed to 195/50/16...if I use 205/45/16 is it suitable?
I hope to find a tyre like PS3 or nearly PS3 and noisy abit also ok...need good grip wet/dry And good handling,sharp steering respon..
If Dunlop I like the sport max RT and Sport Maxx TT but I dun think both have my size

If keep to 15", 195/55R15 got plenty of choices, but 195/50R16, I found only Kumho Solus HS51, Yokohama A-Drive AA-01, Yokohama A-Drive AR01 (Directional) Falken ZE-912 now ZE-914 and Conti CPC2 which is going to be discon also.

For you upgrade from 185/60R15, 195/50R16 is the closest, being 0.27% smaller only.
If go to 205/45R16 it will be 2.01% smaller. Can still use but will be bumpier but better traction because wider contact. How wide are your rims? You need min 6.5" to max 7.5", best 7" wide rims
You can also use 205/50R16 which is 1.37% bigger, slightly better comfort to 45 series.
Both sizes PS3 have....
Is your car lowered? If not, then using 45 series more space in wheel arch....

My car does not lowered....now using Falken ze914 grip is normal only steering respon very bad...just for normal use only...I need more performance abit tyre
Got ppl suggest me use 204/45/16 also...but compare with 205/50/16 which 1 will better?
If not wrong my rims is 6.5" wide means i need change 7" wide rims? If 6.5"wide rims abit not suitable for 205 tyre right?

Go with 205/50, definitely much better coz more comfortable. 205/45 is very thin already so become harsh. 205/50 can still use just 6.5" width.

This is because ZE-914 are all seasons mid category tyres only.
205/45R16 more bumpy less body roll, 205/50R16 more balance between comfort and performance.
If use 205/45 then need 7", if use 205/50 then 6.5" are ok. This is due to higher sidewall, tyre sidewall more flex.

Yes, 205/50 will be slightly heavier on pick up but should not be too much because only 1.37% bigger. However it will be more comfortable over 205/45. That is why you have to set your priorities, whether comfort or performance. As mentioned 205/45 will be more towards performance.

No, not Federal Formosa FD2, that is touring tyres quite similar to your ZE-914 or maybe even lower.
For tyres if PS3 is too expensive then Yokohama S-Drive will be out too. They should be in the RM350 region. Only other tyre you can try is Bridgestone RE-003.
Hankook V12 Evo 2 currently have 3 sizes only, so to find out whether they have your size you may have to wait.

I'm using F1-D5 now, and pretty good performance in the dry or wet, but a bit noisy.
Yes, if diameter smaller the speedo reading will be more overstated than your actual speed.

Tyre Size you have to decide, since you are leaning more towards performance looks like you are aiming for 45 series....haha
Yes, for smaller diameter, as mentioned earlier around 2%, therefore if speedo shows 100kph, you are doing 98kph only

Toyo DRB also mid only, higher category for Toyo are T1-R and T1-Sports

Yes, S-Drive being block pattern and directional can become noisy at later stages

Ya...if diameter is smaller that is the only issue I am considor about it...
If diameter bigger I scare pickup heavier...bcoz my car power not very powerful...I have some frens same car as mine they changed to 205/45/17 but the diameter more bigger...

If I stick tov195/50/16 will very hard to find a good tyre...

Got abit intereste about Dunlop direzza Dz102...its noisy level almost same with S drive...got improve from Dz101

Nope F1-D5 does not have 195/50/16.
Like I suggested earlier, go for 205/50/16. I don't think you'll notice much difference in pick up or performance but you would notice better comfort compared to 205/45/16, even to 195/50/16. So with 205/50/16 you get more comfort and way better tire choices as well, plus your speedo might be more accurate, therefore more positive points as opposed to the negatives.

Top range tyres like T1-Sports and Yoko V105 smallest size is 205/55R16, which is too big for your car.
Like Conti Sports contact 5 starts in 17", the coming CSC6 start I think 19", Goodyear Asy2 also start 17", Michelin PSS starts 18", some of these tyres my VR also cannot use....hhahahhah
