S.Drive price slightly on e high side.. i try not to spend too much though, keeping budget under $500...... any advise?? thanks guys yoko tyres are generally slippery however S drive is ok. my friend's ride is using that. but...... the noise lvl is crazy also. as for Adrive looking at the thread it isnt that great... u might wanna try bridgestone adrenaline series for good grip and reasonable noise. or hankook v12 is getting more and more popular around. however u must know... u want grip noise wise surely will be there. unless u go for continental tyres which is read is finely balanced between the 2. howvere it comes with a greater price.

Mugen85 1st Gear October 21, 2010 Share October 21, 2010 You must have very sensitive ears to find that PP2 is noisy. Go for hankook or kumho tyres. They should able to fit your budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karrnage929 Neutral Newbie October 29, 2010 Share October 29, 2010 Hi, selling off my Advanti rims and almost new Yokohama S-drive tyres at $200. Condition is that i need the set of tyres from the buyer's car. Stock is ok, tyres best to be relatively new. My tyres are less than 6 mths, less than 10 km mileage. Just change in april but wife found the tyres to be noisy and less comfortable ride, hence want to sell. The performane and grip is good, esp in wet weather. Tyre size 185/55/r15/82v. Call me at 91128985 if interested. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
