Muser 4th Gear June 5, 2016 Share June 5, 2016 I don't think there are any plans in the pipeline for Conti SportContact-6 to be manufactured in any sizes smaller than 19"Thanks for the info. That saves me from hankering after it then, lol. I wonder if it's any quieter than the CSC5 though. Might not be since it sounds like it's more performance-oriented than the CSC5, based on the press release. I guess I'll wait for reviews here on MCF. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free2d Clutched June 7, 2016 Share June 7, 2016 How about CSC5 vs Primacy 3st? For comfort n quiet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanblee 1st Gear June 11, 2016 Share June 11, 2016 normal tyre should be able to last 60000k-80000k. No need to change so fast, not environmental friendly. If your tyre can last to 80K, most likely its already bald. Please don't be a road hazard to other road users. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few hundred spread over 2-3 years, sounds like a really much better deal than hear CO nagging because of merlion baby, having to remove full size child seat cover, wash cover, clean car, air car, fit back child seat cover etc. Or I should just slow down when attempting humps and bumps Happy weekend to all bros Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washing child seat cover, reinstalling, etc, is super lecheh, and downright tiring. Just did that for a few seats so it's fresh in my mind. And my kids always complain about getting car sick, so if I could fix that with new tyres, that would boost quality of life for entire family. Good value what, like that. Then again, maybe I just want new tyres... and maybe I need to slow down too and sayang the throttle with more finesse. Happy weekend folks! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at these 2 in 14". In the end went for toyo cf2. Paid $75 for 185/60/14. So far so good. They are new so noise is low. Grip is good on wet and dry.

Grip is good on wet and dry. Do share how it performs after 6 months. New tyres will still be silent for the first month or so... some will become damn loud after that while others only increase by a bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberttan 5th Gear June 13, 2016 Share June 13, 2016 normal tyre should be able to last 60000k-80000k. No need to change so fast, not environmental friendly. I wont exchanged mine and my families and friends Safety for Green friendly(use tires till last drop) Buying a Quality tires particularly those well R&D product had done their part like lower rolling resistance help improve my car fuel consumption (1 or 2 % is considered Good? periodic maintenance like pressure / balancing / oil changed etc is already contribute to Green friendly Save money wisely , seen some spent money on expensive car / accessories / Food / Drink etc dont be stingy on TIres ( only 4 contacts between you and road) heard someone said Tires only failed when tires is working very very hard = high speed = heavily load = long distance 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
