Roberttan 5th Gear September 27, 2014 Share September 27, 2014 (edited) Bro, what size you on? I'm looking at 195/65/R15 Most likely getting it from JB since it's hard to find this tyre in SG. My XM2 still have plenty of tread reaching 2 yr old and 80k km do contact you shop for Malaysian tyre, I am sure they are willing to help you order if the price is right do remember Malaysia made tyre sold in their market are generally budget range with budget Quality Edited September 27, 2014 by Roberttan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My XM2 still have plenty of tread reaching 2 yr old and 80k km Yup the XM2 has lots of tread and seems to last forever. I am using 175/65/14. I was in JB and I saw 185/65/15 so I guess they will have 195/65/15. The shop I saw was opposite Tesco in Bukit Indah. Corner shop of Jalan Indah 16/5. One side faces Tesco the other side faces Giant across the road. I think the price is RM 220 for 15s They had XM2 as well as well as Bridgestone Ecopia. I am just a customer and not the shop owner, change my brake fluid there today. Edited September 27, 2014 by Jamesc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic September 27, 2014 Share September 27, 2014 I changed my xm2 after 3 years and 30000km. It is noisy as hell. Cannot tahan the road noise. Its a safety feature for people looking at their hand phone when they cross the road so they can hear you coming. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamchild72 Clutched September 29, 2014 Share September 29, 2014 Hi, How about Yokohama Bluearth AE50? Just to check if my tyre is manufactured 4811, should I change it now or wait because I got a pre-owned car? The tyre thread looks 50% used. Thanks.

Earthboy 4th Gear September 29, 2014 Share September 29, 2014 The car left about 4 years plus.The current tyre definately cant last that long, i think you can start shopping now and get it replace in the next few months and should just last till end of car life.

Dreamchild72 Clutched September 29, 2014 Share September 29, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the advice. I am looking at Yokohama bluearth AE50 and Michelin primacy 3 ST for 215/55/17. But Michelin is more expensive compared to Yokohama. I was quoted $160 for Yokohama and $190 for Michelin. Anyone tried Yokohama before?

But Michelin is more expensive compared to Yokohama. I was quoted $160 for Yokohama and $190 for Michelin. Anyone tried Yokohama before? Yokohama V551 DB Decibal is very quiet/comfort, the grip so far so good. I on this rubber for 1 month, previously on several brand/model . None of them can match the quietness except GR90. I bought it at $210 for the size of 225 x 40 x 18. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthboy 4th Gear September 30, 2014 Share September 30, 2014 PS3 is in a different category. it is a performance tyre and looking at his short list, he is probably looking at quieter tyre and PS3 is noisy compared to the PP2 I have used before. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
