Ok, just checked with the shop.

 

If you get 4 tyres....each will be S$110 for 195/55/R15. nod.gif

 

If you want a comparison, you can try calling other authorised Michelin resellers like Leong Seng [Tel: 67444280] or South East Tyre [Tel: 62417665].

But i agree that Kumho is no horse run!

Dunno man...couple of us at SEATSG were testing the tyre, though Kumho is cost effective, comfortable coz of sidewall, could not really perform as well with say, the ES100 which was the tyre we pitted against.

What about 205/55/16?

 

 

Will have to check this up tomorrow. The shops are closed now. Or you can give the shops a call also. The names and tel numbers are posted above. nod.gif

 

Some other pricings for comparison of the same size of tyres you are asking about:

 

- S-03 ~S$210 each

 

- Pilot Sport ~S$240 each

 

- P6000 ~S$160 each

 

- Falken ST115 ~S$130 each

 

- Kumho 712 ~S$110 each

 

The prices may have changed since I asked about them, so best to still give the shops a call. nod.gif

No lah...Just want to share with fellow MCF forumers the experience of using Kumho 712...

 

For road use, grippy in the dry and progressive at limit..I can take the KJE exit to BKE at 100kmh....laugh.gif..wet handling also just above average, no surprises but of course, can't compare with ST115 wet performance but it is ok with me since I don't drive fast in the wet anyway only abt 100kmh to 110kmh on the highway..laugh.gif..It may not be on par with tyres like S-03, AVS Sport , .....etc but it not far away and with that kind of low pricing, I would say it beat them hand down....definitely worth it....nod.gif

In a sense, that's true. But ahem...I am more "environmentally friendly" then [cool]

 

Actually, i just prefer a tyre that performs excellently in the rain..

Yep. nod.gif Quite so for a 16" High Performance tyre with comfort in mind and good wet handling capabilities. wink.gif There is a picture of the tyre and its groove lines in the link I posted in the 1st post. nod.gif

I'll have to check that later tonight. Maybe go tyre kicking a bit. tongue.gif

 

But they're definitely softer than Potenza G3 and Pilot Sport tyres. nod.gif

 

Sorry I'm biased against CSC tyres. Had a very bad experience with my factory installed CSC tyres in wet weather, thats why I changed to Pilot Sport. sweatdrop.gif

Ok, checked. The tyre sidewall is quite firm, almost as firm as the G3, but the ride is better, as in more comfortable. nod.gif

Even tho CSC2 is said to be much better than CSC, I dont think I'll go back to them anyway. shakehead.gif

 

Its going to be just Michelin, Bridgestone, or Pirelli for me. tongue.gif
