Not sure if able to make full steering turn but I made the mistake of putting 195/55/15 on the front. Didn't like it. Car lost it's pickup. No fun to drive. In the end, moved them to the rear and bought 195/50 for the front.

hmm. i'm using 55 profile also coz i want little bit of comfort. gonna swap back to 50's when these gave out next year.

Should use 205/50, not 195/50. Better traction, slightly better comfort too.....

pirelli dragon sport 215/45 17 380 promo per piece..end 2016...i reckon can get 350 if buy 4..

is that tyre good? i read at paul tan , performance 5% better compare with ps3 re003

but that dragon has 400 tw rating and the sidewall harder than my ps3

 

[vr2turbo]

To me, the dragon is mid category of Pirelli tyres. P zero top category, Cinturato lower category

Dragon is better than PS3?? It's actually only made for certain Asian countries, just like Continental MC series for MY, and certainly below P Zero which is the direct competitor to Michelin PS series. There's 1 guy in the lowyat forum who had tried it and said it's pretty good but I'm not entirely convinced. Maybe if compared to older PS3 then can be a bit better. However that price is certainly rather expensive too, almost reaching PS4 and I'm pretty sure PS4 will beat this Dragon coz PS4 already able to beat the higher P Zero too. 400 TW should last pretty long and normally indicates tire in the entry level to UHP, like the Dunlop DZ102. What is the wet traction rating, A or AA? Normally top line UHP has AA even though that doesn't guarantee it's really good in the wet.

traction rating AA. the name dragon sport so ricer. Had to google to check whether its genuine pirelli product

pricing wise quite high maybe due to its location..only 2 tyre shop in housing area.

i read these article from Paul Tan on the tyre:

"...During the development process, the engineering team put alternative Pirelli tyre models and its competitors tyres to the test. The results showed that braking and dry handling performance was up by 5%, while wet handling performance showed improved performance by up to 10%.

Its competitors include the Michelin Pilot Sport 3, Bridgestone Potenza RE003 and the like. The Dragon Sport tyre is manufactured at Pirelli’s Yanzhou plant in China. Pirelli expects to expand the product offering in the next few months...."

so i thought its the same tier as ps3/re003 + with the wide groove/channel on it, looks promising except for that 400 TW rating, abit high for performance tyre..?:hmmmm:

The Dragon name is not new. Years ago there was a Pirelli Dragon model also. Now is Dragon Sports.....lol

Anyway, I was right to say it is mid category. Here is a write up from Pirelli Australia...

#Product
Noticing there was gap in the market between entry level and performance oriented P-Zero tyres, Pirelli took on the challenge to meet demand of brand sensitive mid-range car owners. This approach is designed to offer and engineer a sporty alternative to the P-Zero product range. Besides having those characteristics of a sport performance and aggressive design, Pirelli ensures to deliver a tyre that ticks all the categories for its customers in terms of safety, comfort and fashion.

#Features & Benefits
During the development process Pirelli demonstrated a 5 per cent increase in braking and dry handling performance, while there is a 10 per cent improvement during wet conditions vs its predecessor P1 Cinturato. The tyre features transversal grooves to optimise braking performance, along with four broader grooves for water dispersion and a distinctive external shoulder rib. To complete the design, square footprint is encased to increase the amount of contact on the road, further enhancing the performance of the tyre.
All in one the Dragon sport is designed with light weight feature, low rolling resistance and focus on sports driving without a trade-off for comfort.

But here say better than their own lower end Cinturato model only.....lol

If that Dragon Sport is relatively cheaper then can consider but not at that price range.
