Sony 1st Gear April 5, 2010 Share April 5, 2010 (edited) as requested. 215/45/17. thanks. instead of RS02, have u considered f1 asymmetric or hankook v12? BTW, are you the same chinablue from opel forum? Edited April 5, 2010 by Sony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinablue Clutched April 5, 2010 Author Share April 5, 2010 instead of RS02, have u considered F1 as or hankook v12? BTW, are you the same chinablue from opel forum? u CSI ah..have to take cover liao. F1..seems to be made in thai? and the noise level is not really that good. V12..er..no confidence in korea brand..

Firstly, your tyre size is wrong.. shd be 225/45R17, not 215. then it's GSD3 that is from thai. F1 AS is either from Germany or China. Depends on where you buy and the price u paid. I was on V8RS and frankly, it perform pretty well in term or grip, noise and wet. However as with most tyres, it's rather noisy after 30k.... I was told that V12 is nosier.. and I'm surprised that you have no confidence in korean. it's like those japz people asking why you want to buy conti car when maintenance is high and it have poor resell value. so is it hear say or perception? you decide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branteo Clutched April 5, 2010 Share April 5, 2010 u CSI ah..have to take cover liao. F1..seems to be made in thai? and the noise level is not really that good. V12..er..no confidence in korea brand.. I'm on Goodyear F1 Asymmetric (Made in Germany) - pretty good performance. Excellent grip on both dry and wet (very much impressive during wet if you ask me). There's also made in China batch - thou most tyre shops will recommend you go for the made in Germany ones. Firstly, your tyre size is wrong.. shd be 225/45R17, not 215. Why cannot be 215/45R17 ? My Civic FD1 is on 215/45R17 leh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your budget like? Made in Germany's Goodyear F1 Asymmetric goes from $190 to $200 in most tyre shops. One of my most preferred tyres would be the Continental CSC3 - quiet, lightweight, and commendable performance. But pricey! Paid over $300 each last time round!

Paid over $300 each last time round! max cap at $250/pc..if can get those lower price ones like RS02 and comparable in all aspects, i would go for the cheaper one. german made F1 only 190 - 200?? R17 also this price? could it be 'cheong' one? continental is definitely out of my budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitstop (Whitley), P0H H3ng (AMK), Kah Tyres (Lavender), Arrow (Serangoon), South Asia (Ubi), etc It is around that price range. I'm on 215/45/17 - and that's what I paid. Made in China ones would be cheaper - thou i did not enquire on the price as I knew I wasn't considering. Goodnight.
