Was not expecting much from these tyres as the price is so budget but to my surprise they are holding out well.
After fitting it rained heavily, so on the way home hit the Federal highway and the aquaplaning resistance is pretty good. Had them for a week only and not even run in, I tried pushing it a little and they held quite well in corners.
The tyres are also quiet and pretty comfortable.
Needs further test, but so far I think they are awesome for that price......

My previous tyres were GY Asy, Blue Streak Stiletto, GY Asy 2 the GT Radial HPY. Not always expensive brand counts, I am more to Value for money.
Even longer ago, I was on Falken ST115 (many sets), Yoko S-Drive, Falken FK452 and GY GS-D3. If want expensive I would have used PS2 but most of my tyres were below RM400 whereas PS2 at that time around RM750.....lol

Sorry, didn't follow that thread last time.

Seems like you have a good history with using Good Year tyres. As for Blue Streak, I never heard of that before.

You never go as far as extreme or semi-slick? But I can probably tell that you are more towards practicality than going all out for racing.

Fleva if not mistaken more expensive than RE-003

Fleva should be a higher grade than RE003 right? Max category? Replacement for S-Drive...

 

[DanzEterna]

vr2, your old tyres leh? wanna sell?

 

[kurt_629]

Rm220? Tread wear of 500...

Wow.. where you got such a good deal..

Continue to share with us on this tyre..

Blue streak belongs to Goodyear already. The time when I was using I think they acquire the brand. However they have change the pattern too.

When I was using looks like this..Blue Streak Stiletto


Now looks like this...Now called Goodyear Blue Streak Stiletto


Nope, don't intend to use extreme or semi slick. Tyres are expensive, not comfortable, noisy and not good for wet road. I use my car for daily so usually is UHP or Max performance tyres are the way to go.

Yoko Fleva V701 replace S Drive are UHP if not mistaken. V105 still their flagship model. Yes, same as RE-003 as to me BS still have other higher models. That is why when PS4 tested against RE-003 just because they are selling well in the market along PS3.....lol

Actually wanted to keep 2pcs for Hyundai Sonata use, but tyre rubber compound harden already. 2 pcs even the sidewall crack when they were compress to remove from the rims, so threw them all away.....lol
