Bridgestone RE003 vs Michelin Pilot Sport 3 (PS3)

[Temujin]

I've used GY RS Sport which treadwear sucked. Then GYF1A2 which I liked its wet performance. Then RE050A which was a good all rounder until about 70% which then grip was really non-existant. Now using AD08R which has awesome dry grip. Still the same awful wet grip as in the older AD07 though.

Might wanna try the RE003 next tyre change if the price is cheaper than the AD08R.

Worst tyre ever for me was the Sime Tyre FTZ. Literally no grip and only lasted me merely 4 mths of daily driving. Lol.

You jump from extreme tyres back to Max performance then back to extreme again. Extreme are outright dry tyres that is why in the wet is poor, however Max performance tyres are balance of dry and wet. Good in dry but not the level of extreme tyres dry. Since my ride is for daily I normally stick to Max tyres for my priorities.

Sime FTZ? or do you mean Silverstone FTZ Evo 8. Even though class as their highest performer is way below others. Probably put them in HP category only. Even their newer Atlantis V7 is not that good.

Many places selling RE-003 now and prices recently have dropped.
Which area are you staying at and what tyre size you looking at?

read that PS3 has alot of raved review n i believe its no doubt a good choice. RE-003 first choice, im also keen to look into brands like Hankook V12 and Maxxis Victra. 205/50R15 is still under consideration, don think gonna be practical driving in town :rolleyes:

Tires get better as new designs get introduced. Don't bother with the Hankook V12 already, its replacement has already been introduced.

RE003 is no brainer for the price really. Unless you travel high speeds on north south highway, then maybe worthwhile going for the PS3 for stability in the wet.

I'm currently using PS3. I bought it before RE003 came out and my god I felt like whaaaaaaaa why RE003 can be so darn cheaaappp? I have heard of many good reviews on RE003 now, at least when it is new.

To me PS3 is quite great. It lives up to its name of a great all-rounder tyre for no brainer. It is comfy and quiet too. In dry it is considered good and grippy. Although it is not as responsive as my previous set of tyre, it gives me confidence, comfort, and sometimes, a little unpredictable fun. I was able to cruise at my usual speed using my old set of tyre at old karak road on PS3 so that's considered quite good to me. In wet, I've not encountered any aquaplaning before. Once I gone through a puddle of water at 70kmh and no aquaplaning. Didn't dare to try any faster though

Despite that, I am still eager to try RE003. It is supposed to have better dry grip and hell a lot cheaper. Im gonna get it next! So any taker for second hand PS3 with 95% thread?

For 195/55R15, the UHP tyre model are PS3, RE-003, GY F1-D5 and Hankook V12Evo2. Conti CSC range GY Asy2 etc., don't have in 15".
F1-D5 is expensive, next is PS3 at around RM250 also. The other 2 are closer to RM200. For the price V12Evo2 and RE-003 likely are better choices unless you have budget for PS3 then go ahead with it....

I'm also a PS3 user/fan before I change to RE003 a few weeks ago. No regrets.
