[QUOTE="arturo, post: 4425150, member: 4288"] am using primacy lc now...very good wet performance(NSE hiway heavy rain go thru puddles no pull at all. so far only felt it hydro slightly but was only for a second-was going thru a drain overflow at about 100kmh that time)...dry performance quite ok also...cornering no sudden let gos...but braking a little not so good. also very quiet for a A class grippy tyre. agreed about the price n design. very expensive and the design looks like old man tyres. will use primacy in my next change. RE001, damn good performance during wet n dry. hi speed very very stable. cornering also good rip. braking good grip. downside is the price. much more expensive compared to primacy and will wear off very very fast. i used my previous re001 for a little more than a year and it was already down to about 40%. at that level, dont speed during rain...no good grip after 50%. braking also same. not good after 50%. another thing to note is the re001 is quite quiet for an AA rating tyre. Parada S spec. very garang looking thread design and also very long lasting.if not mistaken the threadwear rating is 300. wet performance very very good. dry performance is so so. cornering a little twitchy. high speed a little unstable. need to have both hands on the steering or it will wander. braking is so so only. upside is the price. for an AA with such good threadwear its very cheap. i remember buying a set of 195/50-15 for rm160/pc. downside is it is HELL noisy. the thread is very chunky and the noise levels are horrible. another downside is there are limited sizes...i wanted to go 195/55-15 but no such size. Sime Astar...stay away from this tyre. it vibrates during high speed(110kmh above) and no matter how u balance the tyre, the vibration will not go away. i saw with my own eyes cos the tyre guy changed the tyre n showed me the rim no longer vibrating after change to another tyre(that time was the re001) wet performance very twitchy...can feel micro hydroplanes happening. can make u sweat when on the hiway during heavy rain. my fren's ford sampan buang at kampung roads in an oil palm estate during rain. he was using sime astars that time. his words were...can feel like loosing control at all times...n he was only going about 60kmh. Goodyear F1(the old 1 with v-shape thread) power power power...what a waste they stopped producing this...noisy as hell but damn good grip. tyres i wanna know the performance n threadwear....duraplus n assurance [/QUOTE]
