Cwinedine 1st Gear December 29, 2009 Share December 29, 2009 anyone who used PP2 can comment? recommendations - LS2000 - PP2 - CPC2 - Toyo Teo plus i was on PP2 195/50/15...very quiet tyres (imo) given the grip it gives for dry weather...wet weather,travelled 130km/h on nshw with no traces of aquaplanning Noise also must take into consideration the profile of the tyre & brand of car too! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boyboy 1st Gear December 29, 2009 Share December 29, 2009 some recommended the V8RS from hankook. i'm using v12 which is fairly low on noise level too. but V8RS supposed to be quieter n less performance-oriented. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
7007 2nd Gear December 29, 2009 Share December 29, 2009 (edited) LS2000 is my choice in term of value for $$$ for both wet & dry. Quietness is still acceptable after 20K. Edited December 29, 2009 by 7007 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz 2nd Gear January 1, 2010 Share January 1, 2010 anyone who used PP2 can comment? recommendations - LS2000 - PP2 - CPC2 - Toyo Teo plus Currently on PP2 on 17", already travelled more than 10,000km, good on dry and wet, can take corners and brake well too, run 150km/hr on slightly wet road in NSHW quite stable. Good above average tyre I would say but abit on the high side and some may considered noisy but to me is acceptable as it a UHP tyres. Next tyres will be F1 Assym for me. Maybe you can try BS RE001 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberttan 5th Gear January 15, 2010 Share January 15, 2010 best comfort /quiet tyre? are you considering the road holding as well. best is yokohama aspect series but just MHO dont drive fast on wet. the best all rounder i can think of is bridgstone re 001 which i am running on is quiet with good performance (not for track) the next tyre propably michlin LC or bridgestone gr 90 but perpare to pay a premium but still affortable Safety above everythingsssss dont compromised when you can affort them. Is not only driving fast that need grip also we need to stop the shortest the possible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuan 6th Gear January 16, 2010 Share January 16, 2010 yokohama db is the quietest tyre around, ( unless u keep to 80 km /h) if u willing to pay, u can look into bs gr80( look out for gr90 next year ) goodyear ls2000 japan make, grip, noise all slightly above average ( for its price its really worth it ) toyo teo plus, very quiet , haven heard any issue with grip b4. but once again, toyo tyres only slightly cheaper then bridgestone tyres. Yokohama db....is a bit scary.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCZ 1st Gear January 16, 2010 Share January 16, 2010 I could not find the stock to 16inch LS2000 HII. Blessing in disguise. I ended up buying a Y rated (up to 300km/h rating) performance tyres, the Ultrac Cento made by Vredestine. This is a 2012 European compliant tyre which met with very stringent European noise and wet grip (SW mark) requirements. I was extremely surprised at the noise level which was really low for a performance tyre. Mind you I was using the Yokohama dNA DB and would expect to hear rumbling noises. Instead, besides enjoying a much more confident ride now, the noise level, I must say does easily match up with the Yoko. Besides, these tyres are totally free from PCD, meaning environmentally friendly. It is very light (the 16 inch UC much lighter than my 14inch Yokos) and looks fabulous (designed by Giugiaro who design cars like Lambo and Maserati) Don't take my words for it, go make inquiries. Totally recommended. http://www.tyremen.co.uk/ultrac-cento.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
