[Carmodz]

Hey, a fren was telling me to get GR80 as well, however, precedas seem to be the hotter topic. Whats ur take on which one's better?

 

Hi,

 

Anyone can help me out here?

 

I looking for 16" tires that has the following

 

- Extremely low noise

- Comfort drive

- Moderate good road grip on wet and dry

 

Any experts?

 

And the cost?

Can consider Michelin Pilot Precedas or Bridgestone Truanza GR80.

IMHO, Precedas would be better in the grip department than GR80. However, if considering quiet and comfort as priority, perhaps GR80 would be a better choice.

Will check with Stamford see they got 2+free 2 on Michelin Pilot Preceda..

 

Stamford does not carry Michelin's

I also think that the pilot peceda is the choice man . So many people recommand . Heard that it is really good man .

ic ic...hmm..yah seems like everyone's talking abt Precedas more than GR 80, ok thanks, will take note of it!! I guess i need grip more than peaceful drive as the Sound System would normally be on

It is moderate grip leh... am on it for 12k and i dun feel the grip as good as my previous ST115...but for sure the wear is veri minimum

 

Bro, u r humble man ...i don think the precedas are just moderate of their grip but then again, wat are u comparing with? Slicks?

 

Michelin Preceda? I'm on 17 and it's fits all your criteria...

although these established coy will have quality section to ensure their products consistent with their policies...there is still differences in the overall output of the products...i have already heard complaints from my frz owning altis there are alot of joints not finishes nicely and alignment of the joints not balance....for vios they were complaining the running of wiring is chaotic and dangerous...(when they installed their ICEs)...

[RedM623]

me on the verge of getting one set of preceda...but the dealer remind me tat they r from thai n no more from jap..seems like got some reservation like tat...n make me hesitated too...

i looking for low noise tires so this is one of the better choice..

now only on the price...heard price has increase abit..wonder where can get a gd price..tat all...:)

[Furrynadz]

end of the day, cheaper to produce means lower omv means lower cost to end consumer but also means bigger profit margin to stealerships

 

same applies to tyres/any goods made worldwide/cheaper countries

 

if its good n cheap enuff and u like it, buy it
