RE01R is the tyre you talking about.

But I think go in to JB Toyo Tyres are much cheaper...

I will definitely ask when in there during daylight hours...

think I'll stick to the R888 or R1R if pricing in JB is good...

RE01R will try later...

How about hankook RS2?

Read good review on this tyre. Price is attractive now since they are giving out discount. (Refer to civicfd-sg.com under the wheel and tyre folder)

Tried asking for RE01R, but they don't seem to have the profile for 205/50 ...

RS2

RE01R dun have 205/50 15 or 16...

but the new RE55S have...

man, the thread pattern on this tyre is just plain fierce da....

haven't ask the price yet... dun think it will be cheep tho... and the wear rate will be just terrible if you do think about it... it's a 'semi slick' design.

it's interesting nobody in here advocated the cheep and good AD07 strongly... is it becos it's 'old'?

the price for it is quite quite nice on the pocket, and performance in the dry is sort of like a benchmark...

Last I remembered, a few of our members are on it ES5 i mean...

and ES1... but it got 'trashed' after one PG session... is that true??

Yokohama Advan Sport (AVS Sport) - Anyone tried before?
I'm on it, however, i cant really comment on it as i already toned down in corners already. So i cant really say whether is it good.

Rather expensive too...so i just wondering is it a bit too much just for street use. That time i paid $195 215/17/45 / pcs.

Comment??
