Wats a good tyre for 16" ?

[Mockngbrd]

Anyone can help? for my Gf's VW Polo.

 

i only know of performance tyres but those only come 17" and above.. dunno anything about 16" tyres...

 

preferably something quiet, good performance in wet weather and decent lifespan (& cost)

 

 

(Pls dun tell me federel... bad experience)

polo 16" might already be an overkill. i personally feel the polo isnt very responsive for mine on 195/55/15

 

16" will suffer more. lag of power increase in FC etc.

 

unless u do something to increase the power of the car.

 

i intend to only do that after awhile. 16" will look better thou.

 

to answer ur qn. 16" have quite a gd range to choose from.

 

depends on ur budget. gt bigger budget go for continental csc3, michelin pp3.

 

mid range go bridgestone re001, gy eagle f1, dunlop sp sport, hankook v12, yokohama ad08

 

cheaper ones would be kumho ku31, wideovals

Michellin PP2 or PS3

I find V12 not bad. Lasted me 30k mileage.

Yup. But I love the traction when previously on those rubbers.

==================

 

16" for Polo can use Michelin PP2. Good grip & quiet too. 205/50/16 is about $150 each the last time I checked.

Did u manage to get your tires for your sports car?

 

[Pisces69]

Yup. But I love the traction when previously on those rubbers.

I wud think Michelin is also very grippy & better value for $$$.

 

I feel CSC is over-priced. U know who is the agent, right.

More like Pilot Preceda 2. I might get it next time.

 

I hear now the replacement is out. PP3. Better & cheaper. JB selling RM1000/4 pcs for 16". SG best I get for PP2 is about S$160/ea for 205/45/16.

 

I going to check it next time I go in.

U mean the JB lobang?

 

I got the info from a kaki here so I got to go in & check it out myself.

 

Now I using Yoko A Drive. Very good grip but it not as lasting as Michelins. But price is much cheaper.

 

Next time I prob go for Michelins PP2 or 3.
