If you mean the new dB model V551, then yes is from Japan, and called the super quiet tyre. Asymmetric in pattern and replacing the older directional dB V550.
At RM550 seems a bit expensive, but that may be because is from Japan

Michelin should be the Primacy LC. At RM600 forget it.

Heard that C-Drive 2 shipment is coming but not sure what size. Many members waiting for it.
How long can last, do not know yet as this tyre is new....

My friend tried c-drive 2 but 215/50/16, according to him so so at corner with jerk. Previously him use 205/55/16 A-drive.

What do you mean corner with jerk?
A-Drive is Yoko entry level drive series
C-Drive is mid level, combination of comfort and performance
S-drive is the sports model
C-Drive 2 has a very soft sidewall, so maybe you mean too soft for corners. Maybe a slightly higher air pressure should solve this problem, but comfort may suffer slightly.

Bro vr2turbo,
yes, sidewall too soft, got sound when take corner.
Any other brand suggest for 215/50/17 with price range about RM350/pc ?
Nexen is out as other friend use, damn scare when raining time.

Well, C-Drive 2 is more towards comfort, but heard the grip is good, but may be a bit on the noisy side.
Can ask your friend try a slightly higher air pressure, but definitely should be better then his older A-Drive.
For 215/50R17 at RM350 hard to get good performance tyres. What model of Nexen did your friend use.I think either the N6000 or lower as I remember for this side the top N8000 don't have.
GY F1D5 have this size but around RM440 per pc.

235 and 245 pls, thanks!

 

[vr2turbo]

235 and 245 pls, thanks!

I presume 40 or 45 series, then for RM600 can get Falken ZE-912.
Other then that, Nexen or GT HPX or HPY range.
Even Hankook V12 and S1Evo are way over RM600

 

[Joeker]

Oh OK. Falken ZE 912.

is this tyre quite?

I'm not into cornering nor hi performance, just want reasonable 18" tyre for my ride.

Noise is very individual. Depends also on the car sound proofing.
For the Falken have mixed reviews on noise issue.
Better you try Nexen N8000 as got more positive feedback.....

Achilles
215 x 40 x 18, RM380/=
225 x 40 x 18, RM430/=

OK ah?

 

[vr2turbo]

The Archilles ATR Sports? Price looks okay, but tyres not very good grip.....

vr2turbo,

What do you think of firestone firehawk tires? Are they suitable for our climate? Whats the retail on 205/55r16 for these tires?

Not much experience with Firehawk tyres. It is always better to use proven common brand tyres.
Even though may not happen but just in case one gets damaged you can get a replacement.
Do you know where this firehawk is from, because there was a recall on some of these tyres in the US.
205/55R16 is very common size. From the expensive PS3 to mid Yoko C-Drive 2 and even the budget Nexen N8000. What are your prioirties?

Some reference for you......
