How about Silverstone tires people? They are making a name for themselves in motorsport you know! The FTZ is quite popular and the Kruizer series also. Anybody dare to try on a BMW? Malaysia boleh ke? :dunno:

Cheapo King Albundy tried the Silverstone FTZ 235/45/17 on his "520i"........lasted barely a week and luckily the tyre shop was kind enough to let him claim as defective so he has Handcock on his "520i" now.

U may want to use mine as a reference and check what price you could get on this spec:
Yoko ES100 205/45/16 RM285. From Klang on 31st Dec! (I heard there was a price increase after the new year?)

I'm very happy with the Pirelli Dragons which I've been using for 4-6 months. Its got good grip levels in both dry and wet conditions, the latter was tested during a really bad thunderstorm during a drive back from Johor at 2 am at silly speeds. It's good value for money. Compared to my ex-Dunlop SP9000, the Pirelli Dragons are very quiet. This is a good, comfortable performance tyre. Go geddit lah!

Thanks Bro Juan Powerblow,

Dunno lah bro for your size. I'm also not sure if it comes in that size. Perhaps, the other sifus can enlighten.

Bimmerman, Try the tyre shop at Sunway (forgot what the shop name, it is a shop with big Falken sign board ) I bought C-Drive 235/45/17 for RM 420 per piece. I have no complaint about the tyre, being using it for 5 months.

Can anybody tell me about GT Radial tyres. I would like to try this tyre ....... any comments.

I'm using the GT Radial GTX 60 195/60/15. This is the lower entry tyres but grip has been good on both dry and wet and it's cheaper that the Bridgestone RE711 I was using prior to this.

see here for the range
