Hrmm...thats on the higher end range which i am not really in favour since i use my car daily to travel to work and home. Plus, its a bit pricey as well. I was recommended the aforementioned for daily use. What say you guys?

PP2 245/35/19 is about RM985 and 275/30/19 is about RM RM1100.

PP2 stands for Pilot Preceeda 2.

Thanks a bunch Elixir. The prices sound reasonable. Since you vouch for it , i would suppose that you're using them now too right? How would you explain the quality?

no problem bro. actually, i was being told to go for eiter pilot sport or pilot preceeda. looking on the prices, i think it would be more economical to get the PP2 because i drive about 5k km a month.
I have used different type of tyres over the years and still prefer michelin. it's kinda hard to explain.
i'm using falken now and just hoping it to wear off so that i can get the pp2.

wah like that also kena 'table' again...

the PP2 is a better choice for high miler than the PS2...the PS2 of course superb but i travelled about 5 to 8k km per month so my tyre cost if on PS2 super high...

once u run in the PP2 and warm it up...u will be surprise with the grip level...noise abit high...:top:

Thanks tribena . Dunt mean to kena you on the "table" just that i believe you sifus out there are more experienced with these sort of things. Yeah im a frequent traveller too and thus high miler tyres would suit me best. When you say the noise is high, is the rise in noise level tolerable in your view? and further what about hankook tyres any comment on these ?
