Tyres for Latio

You have your valid points.
But even with the best tyres, all you need is some oil on the road and you will skid.
I believe in changing to mid range tyres and replacing them earlier before they are totally bald, rather than getting a top end tyre and using them till almost the end of their tyre life, as the tropical weather would harden even the best rubber compound within 2 yrs.
The key is to get tyres that suit & meet the demands of your driving habits.

Nope, that 195 is still in my old ride, haven sell yet.
Diff brand and type of tyres are created for different needs. Some prefer comfort and will go for quieter tyres, some prefer performance and will go for those more sticky tyres. Some prefer value for money and will go for those lasting tyres with longer mileage. It all boils down to what they prefer, they are the one paying for them at the end of the day.

Any idea rougly every many km should we change our tyres?

Generally, most people change tyres around 2 years or 40k KM. Some people may drive it for longer time since they feel comfortable with their current tyre.
Skidding is affected by road surface (eg. when it's wet or there is oil). Many HDB multistorey car park road surface is very slippery when wet, so drive slowly and carefully especially on rainy days.

One indication of lousy tires is loud screeching sound when negotiating sharp turns at mscp.
