You can try Hankook K415. Used them before. Quieter than stock Toyos that come with the car. Grip wise is better. No sure the price per tyre. I changed at 85/pc the last time.

Thanks.

Post by: Roy on October 13, 2011, 12:15:18 PM: 195/65/15 is much better than the stock one. Michellin, bridgestone, yokohama are expensive tires. value for money u can look at hankook, goodyear, kumho. GT radiant.

Post by: corgan on October 13, 2011, 07:12:18 PM: you can go to 195/60/R15 but your rim should be at least 7" wide. Or else tyre would budge out at the sides.

LS2000 is a perfet fit. No rim change but dont think you can get LS2000 these days

Post by: Anaconda on December 04, 2011, 11:09:07 PM: Using Michelin XM1 185/65/15 for the last 3years. Lasts about 60k km. Quiet, good grip, long lasting :)
Title: Re: Any Quiet Tyres to recommend?
Post by: Enzoni on December 05, 2011, 07:38:41 AM: Ya, XM1 is good enough for latio, no need spend more money on PS3.

Unless u turbo charged ur latio, upgraded the suspension n brakes.

Post by: kt on December 05, 2011, 10:32:47 AM: Used to use Yokohama DB on my previous ride. I don't find it really quiet. And it's expensive some more.

Please change, most tyres will harden from 2 years onward. Its a small price to pay for safety.
