Bridgestone RE003 vs Michelin Pilot Sport 3 (PS3)

[6UE5t]

change my front tyres last week. found Dunlop Direzza DZ102 with cheap price. so terus sambar lah....

How much?

what about eagle F1?

For 15' only has F1D5, directional symmetric tire with similar performance to PS3 but also will chip like the PS3.

Traction AA will have softer compound which for daily drive is good. For Track I think Traction A will be better....

Will chip too? Thats bad, really. Coz my ps3 is hard to look at now its so ugly lol

I'm not a hardcore wet performance driver..unless i chg to 16" which is near to impossible, the tyre choices r limited sigh.. good that its still relatively cheap though

its made in Thailand, year 2016 (forgot the exact week)
its still a Direzza but with cheap price maybe to clear stock, not that i use an unknown brand hehe
tirerack did a review on it and it performs nicely
its either this or FK453, but FK453 is 2015 stock
waiting for FK510 but still not in yet..

Nexen N8000 quite good what
i tried once and liked it very much
very value for money
i totally trashed it but still grippy until botak @ 31K km

For Dunlop, I actually wanted to try the Sportmaxx RT but alas nobody sells in MY!
FK453 seems decent for its price. FK510 got better review in AutoexpressUK comparison test.

Yup, N8000 have pretty good feedback, especially good aquaplane resistance, however a bit faster wear....

Falken those days I use many sets of their ST115. My last Falken was their FK452 also not bad....

I never get to try Falken. Last time was considering it for my 225/50/17 size coz not many available that time and started to get desperate (coz my F1D5 already showing the steel belts from the chipping!). Was looking to try RE003 but no stock, V12 Evo2 not yet available, so my choices were only PS3 and that FK453. Luckily found a shop offering me the CSC5 at price slightly below PS3 then no need to think anymore and bought them!

For me, never got to try BS or Michelin. Michelin those days top was PS2 but price almost twice of other makes, so was using Falken, Yoko, GY. BS closest was when they intro RE-001, but my size was from Thailand, so opt for S-Drive from Japan....

Hmm surprising since those 2 are very popular brands, especially BS.
For me I also haven't tried Yokohama, Pirelli, Toyo, and any of the Korean brands (as of now only want to try Hankook for later, others not confident yet).
