Btw, seems lke V2 braking distance shorter compared to 912.

Hmm... sounds illogic if the thread pattern is similar. It could be due to difference in force applied on brake, travelling speed, road conditions, weather condition, brake pads, weight of load in car, etc.

v2 and 912 of vast difference. V2 is directional and 912 is asymmetric. difference in compound used probably the reason.

Could anyone confirm on the above?
Stock tyre (I think is Toyo?) 185/65R15, I have the intention of changing them to GR80 195/60R15 at a tyre workshop. Recommended to change? Or don't bother and just use the stock tyre since I'm not changing rim size? :nonod:
