This are 1st gen Type C. Can buy but need to inspect properly. 1st gen inner barrel lip are prone to be out of shape than crack.Very reasonable price.

It helps if you set a maximum amount you willing to fork out for a set of wheel and fix on the rim specification that suits you and fit your current tires then only you go shopping.where to b
where to begin with since, I only know about Kean Lee Hin?
new cars have so ridiculously big wheels these days I would trade in my rims+tyres for the 1 size down. Cheaper so that I can buy better tyres. assuming can clear the brakesbuy bajet rims RM550 and drive economically.![]()
Yours 18 still ok la, can still have 10+cm sidewall.new cars have so ridiculously big wheels these days I would trade in my rims+tyres for the 1 size down. Cheaper so that I can buy better tyres. assuming can clear the brakes
But some good UHP now only go down to 16, like PS4 and the new Goodyear F1 Sport. 15' now also don't have that many good choices left. V12E2 gone, F1D5 supposedly will be replaced by that F1S. So only left PS3 (don't know for how much longer), the new RE004, and Fleva which doesn't seem that good.I feel 16" is not worth it, because the tyre price is almost same as 17", and 17" is visually nicer. 16" always been the odd duck for tyre sizing and price in Malaysia.
17's the best size! 18's quite bigBut some good UHP now only go down to 16, like PS4 and the new Goodyear F1 Sport. 15' now also don't have that many good choices left.

17' in a small car actually to me doesn't look that nice, seems like a small kid trying to wear an NBA player's shoes.
15 inch just go for extreme tires since they are quite affordable now tons of choices to choose from and available.But some good UHP now only go down to 16, like PS4 and the new Goodyear F1 Sport. 15' now also don't have that many good choices left.

Ya lo, I also don't dare to put extreme tires on my son's Swift, later he got surprised and cannot control the slide.After slide, can get new car liao
17 is best for our car size, 18 just nice for bigger d-segment.17's the best size! 18's quite big
**guess depends on the car jugak
Like my friend with Evo X, he drives less than 80kph when raining. Cannot tahan, Call me up ask, told him try GY Asy2 that time, then later next set PS2....extreme tires i scared scared raining time slide slide.![]()
Like X70 premium on 19", later owner want to change tyres sure make noise.......lolAgreed...
Just like newer pickups...17 or 18 inch minimum...What a joke. Super expensive tire for what should be workhorse. We can see most owners downgrading but as the brakes got bigger....
Extreme tires are not so scary once you get used to it. I've been using extreme tires all the while rain or shine. These tires can also help you have some self control when it's raining.Ya lo, I also don't dare to put extreme tires on my son's Swift, later he got surprised and cannot control the slide.
I know, I am using AD08R also on my Evo. But the thing is my son just learned to drive 2 years ago. I am not going to give him something risky, at least not until he has a lot more experience.Extreme tires are not so scary once you get used to it.

aiyak. cant afford new car. hahaAfter slide, can get new car liao
i'm happy with re003. i dont whack in the rain but if using extreme i'm pretty sure i will drive slower than 80. hahahaLike my friend with Evo X, he drives less than 80kph when raining. Cannot tahan, Call me up ask, told him try GY Asy2 that time, then later next set PS2....
honestly nobody buys SUV/Pickup Trucks for work lol, most urban drivingAgreed...

My old waja comes std with 16inch and choices for tire is very limited but the price is too close with 17inch tire.
Then again, downgrade to 15 will makes the car looks 'jinjang'. I think 15inch can clear my front brakes.
My Pajero was on stock 15inch steel rim which makes the car looks weird...looks over-bodied and sagging at the rear frame when offroading. Upgrade to 16inh with 8jj(i think) makes road holding and offroading much better....Now downgrade to 15inch again+spacer to avoid sagging as 16inch AT tire cost soo much.
Do the 15inch makes a different?
Yes, as its very2 light compared to previous 16inch+tires. FC is a lot better which on a Pajero is significant. Car felt much lighter.
Whats the downside?
Does not look as good as on 16 and body roll is more.
Your son so young only ah..I thought already working type.I know, I am using AD08R also on my Evo. But the thing is my son just learned to drive 2 years ago. I am not going to give him something risky, at least not until he has a lot more experience.
But you know a guy that drive more than 80km/h with extreme..Hahahahaaiyak. cant afford new car. haha

Yeah just 19, started learning to drive when 17. Still in college.Your son so young only ah..I thought already working type.
Not his son young. His father not old enoughYour son so young only ah..I thought already working type.
Half century old already. LolNot his son young. His father not old enough
Meaning the fuel gauge is at the half tank level. Just a matter of perspective. Like the glass of water, is it half full or half empty? The earlier half may be spent striving for a living. So the later half may get to enjoy the fruits of earlier labor.Half century old already. Lol
Still struggling and striving bro, cannot relax and enjoy much yet. Kids getting into college so expenses escalating there.Meaning the fuel gauge is at the half tank level.

That guy expert mah......lolBut you know a guy that drive more than 80km/h with extreme..Hahahaha
If like that even easier just reduce 10ltrs of fuel.Trim 10kg from yourself, and no need to upgrade.![]()
We all know a guy who drives more than 80km/h with extreme tyres. *Pointing at youBut you know a guy that drive more than 80km/h with extreme..Hahahaha
Contrary to popular belief, not all extreme tyres have no grip in the rain..... I've used Hankook RS3, RSR, AD07, AD08R all in the rain on different platforms and I don't really see any issue with grip. But granted - I wasn't driving like a mad-man in the rain, just normal road speeds like 70-80km/h max 100km/h. Braking and grip no issue and no aquaplaning unlike the rubbish GY NCT5 (which isn't an extreme tyre I know). Main problem with extreme tyres is the wear is stupidly high only and won't last you max a year on the road.extreme tires i scared scared raining time slide slide.![]()
wah. my re003 lasted 4 years. hahaha. with re003 oso i scared to drive fast in the rain. highway speed when raining only 90kmh max. if i go extreme i'll definitely pitstop at rnr and wait for the road to dry up.Contrary to popular belief, not all extreme tyres have no grip in the rain.....

Isn't the R888R considered semi-slick already?wah. my re003 lasted 4 years. hahaha. with re003 oso i scared to drive fast in the rain. highway speed when raining only 90kmh max. if i go extreme i'll definitely pitstop at rnr and wait for the road to dry up.
but.. RE71R is damn sex.. i would buy that than R888R.

Us mere mortals only have balls of tofu when it’s raining heavily.Isn't the R888R considered semi-slick already?
Anyway driving fast in the rain isn't for us mere mortals. Gotta have tofu mad skillz![]()
I think R888R is semi slick already, too little water channels.is R888R not extreme category ah? i only know kumho V720 is in extreme category.
Huh so fast?? What tires do you use and how many km travelled yearly? For me, I use UHP tires with tread wear around 280-320, roughly can last 40-50k km. I do rotation every 20k km.How the hell u guys drive 4 years with 1 set of tyres? I change 2 pcs every half a year.
R888R is semi dy, Extreme is R1R.....is R888R not extreme category ah? i only know kumho V720 is in extreme category.
I used to change 2 pcs every year, now change every 5 years even though still not finish, but harden......lolHow the hell u guys drive 4 years with 1 set of tyres? I change 2 pcs every half a year.
Drive like normal drivers do. I get about 50 to 60K mileage for each tyre change. and using eco tyres XM2.How the hell u guys drive 4 years with 1 set of tyres? I change 2 pcs every half a year.
oh myHow the hell u guys drive 4 years with 1 set of tyres? I change 2 pcs every half a year.
i think depends on the tires compound oso. i bought toyo NE03 for my wife citra, year 2016, installed 2017. 4 years use the thread still thick but the compound harden. also maybe due to bad suspension and 1 slightly bengkok rims, after swap new suspension can feel the tires pulling everywhere even after done alignment twice. now swap to yokohama ES32 year 2019. let's see how long this one last.Drive like normal drivers do. I get about 50 to 60K mileage for each tyre change. and using eco tyres XM2.
talking about tyres. i note now tyres starts their life when installed on rims. so instead of getting less than a yr / half yr fresh tyre. you can get 2 yrs made tyre and use it for 4 yrs or until it wear or 40/50K km
TR1, ATR Sport, both hard tyres but still eat a lot, i guess car heavy and kuat cornering lol.Huh so fast?? What tires do you use and how many km travelled yearly? For me, I use UHP tires with tread wear around 280-320, roughly can last 40-50k km. I do rotation every 20k km.
TR1 is 280 TW so a bit softer but ATR is 400 so should last long enough. My Mark X also never rotate because staggered wheel sizes but the wear is quite even hence all 4 can last at least 2-3 years with 300 TW tires. Probably you drive too fast! I drive slow2 only, typical uncle drive. LolTR1, ATR Sport, both hard tyres but still eat a lot, i guess car heavy and kuat cornering lol.
I follow VR2turbo's advice, just use the fronts till botak since its FWD. then swap the rear to front.
Changing a pair soon. Take my usual speed at corner already making noise ahahha
Huh so long? Zestino on your 7 right? You seldom drive it and short distances only la.oh my
i suspect, mine thread wear 140 also will last me 3-4 yrs all in
Frm my exp using normal tires, high speed drives does not have significant increase in wear. Its weight and cornering. I got a friend shod his Honda Stream with Toyo TR1 (or is it T1R...the older model) and that lasted just abt 1 year. That car is loaded most of the time.Total mileage is well below 40k km.TR1 is 280 TW so a bit softer but ATR is 400 so should last long enough.

Weight and especially how aggressive you corner dictate a lot on tire wear. Cornering hard usually wears out more on the outer treads though.I tot thats the

4x4 tires are an exception. I am referring to 4x4 and not SUV. AT tires seems to last long, quite long actually. Its either due to the at least 4x thicker thread (compared to car tires) depth or different compound. Other HT tires seems to wears out like a normal car HP tires.
