Redplanet Clutched December 20, 2009 Share December 20, 2009 Aspec is for fitting it on your car to make your car complete in order for you to drive out of the showroom, straight to the tyres shop to another set. It's not meant to be used. I am amazed you used it for 25K. LOL... Very true....my colleague changed to new aspec DB tyres due to budget price. Within the first week, skidded twice, once in the wet and once in the dry. He's driving a wish, always within the speed limit. The ONLY good point is the quietness.... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redplanet Clutched December 21, 2009 Share December 21, 2009 1 week? Were the tyres scrubbed in yet? Definitely not yet....but it's pretty unsettling for him. His old balding tyres also never had this problem... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elfenstar 3rd Gear December 25, 2009 Share December 25, 2009 Too bad it doesnt come in my 175/65R14 (or maybe its out of stock). I'm settling for the Kumho KH17. Reviews rate it as havnig better grip in both dry and wet than the K415's, yet its quieter, and I am really pleased with the K415's on the Punto. Any idea where I can get Kumho's though?

Octopus 3rd Gear December 26, 2009 Share December 26, 2009 Sorry, I have not tried Kumho tyre yet... So which category does KH17 belongs to? The comfort n quiet? The sporty? Or in-between? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazdevil Neutral Newbie December 28, 2009 Share December 28, 2009 (edited) http://www.todayonline.com/Car/EDC091128-0...-for-quiescence GR80 had always been a good overall performance tyre (bias towards comfort). Let see how this new tyre perform.. at last! it couldn't have come sooner...my tire is almost thinning out... my GR80 has served me well so its natural to go for this GR80 replacement. juz hope tat it is not too expensive...
