Really? Photos please. I'm asking since I wanted to try CC5 the other day, shop guy said the size (16/195/50) isnt available yet. I have CC2 on my fofi.

Is ContiPremiumContact 2 (CPC 2) or for that matter Continental the only tires that can fit our car?I had a puncture on my left rear tyre recently and had it fixed. However since then, it visually appears as if the tyre is loosing pressure after some time. I got it check at the tyre shop and they didn't detect any air leaking from the puncture site. Google for a few tire brands and seems that no brands have our tire size other than Continental.

The other brand I can find is Falken. There are others, because the other day my tyre puncture on NKVE, i realised it too late and caused my tyre to bloat. The shop didnt have conti but asked me if i wanted other brands, i didnt asked though because i was in a hurry. I went to a conti shop nearby.

Eagle also have

Would love to show the pic, however my rims and tire is change after some idiot decide to steal my stock rim.

Wondering why we wanna stick to stock tyres? I mean during replecement in future after 40,000km? I'm using CC5 in my other smaller car.. Nothng to shout about, yet kinda skiddy on rainy day yet spin due to aquapalance

how much is the stock tyre? any good deal price? i just busted my front left tyre at fed high.... (massive POT HOLE just below motorola bridge from subang heading to 222).

Thought this must be useful for someone.

thanks elten... yup useful, but that is for 4 seasons tyre... got asian version?

can try 205/45 16 height and width compensation with stock 195/50. The side wall height different might not be noticeable 92.25mm (205) vs 97.5mm (195). 205/45 shouldnt be hard to get as every shop carries this size.

give you a low profile look, i might say the comfort will have to be sacrificed every bumps, nooks and crannies you'll feel it especially if you go for hard suspension set up. I can still tolerate it.

our size might not so hard to look, back those days try to look for waja standard size 195/55 15 (common size for 15 is 195/50). These tyres were charged at premium back then so most of waja owners settled for 16 wheels with common size tyre.

if you guys decide to go for any other soft compound tyre please change your tyres once the thread reaches 50%. It has good grip for both dry and wet, but when it surpass the mark, wet grip is compromised when you do hard braking. Bad experienced on this.

CPC2 consider soft or hard compound? How about Falken ZE912?

Previously ive been using conti sPort contact - imho it has a good balance between wet and dry grip not a performance tyre tho but only managed to use it for 6 months before i decide to sell my car.

CPC2? Mmmm just 1 month of usage, so am not sure how it wears out. Have red from others that this tyre wears out quite fast, then again thats in europe. Have to wait for others to comment on this.

Falken - surpass 50% its a no-no for me. Just doesnt grip when wet.

good rain performance +quiet + wider surface + sportier look?

your concern is?

all. would like to go for tyre that lbrings sportier look like u lowers your car without sacrificing comfort and safety.
asking for opinion.

I see, sorry for that misunderstanding. I dont understand by the way you put those words.

If durability is not an issue, then you would want to consider softer compound but be warned of the thread wear.

Harder compound (i.e. simex, silverstone usually all the cheaper stuff) wears errrr slow (damn slow if u asked me, ive used dunlop close to 3 years and the thread still far from the thread wear marker). Noisy, doesnt brake that well.

Sporty look, efficient grip, yokies advan neova hahaha burn my wallet tho

Affordable, with that criteria? Mmmmmm i would pick Eagle f1. Tried n tested. Others you might want to consider kumho Ecsta.

That is based on my personal opinion and experience others may have different preference.

thanks.

After detail checking, my rim cracked...
