Original Post : Hi vr2turbo..
I'm back again for tyre..my D01 almost get botak within 1 year..:)
My comment on D01 -it serve better then NCT GY because it is soft
compound..am i right vr2turbo ?
It run very good in dry but not able to provide adequate aquapla for
middle wet water.
WoW, man that's fast!! high mileage? I think you must be driving like u
stole it~ kekek.. Now you made me remember that the boss at the tire shop
where I bought my tires also asked me that, like around one year go back
his shop buy tire from him again... =_="

Original Post : mubull,
Your D01 are unidirection tyres, therefore cutting through water is not an
issue, but traction A tyres are better for dry and not wet in straight
line braking. As mentioned in another post, aquaplaning is due to tread
design, and grip is base on rubber compound. They work hand in hand.
I SEE, that is some expert knowledge and advise for free there! Gotta
write it down now! :)

That is what this forum is for. Exchange ideas/knowledge among us.
Yes, for tyre pressure whatever the size including your upgrade size, first
step is to follow your car manufacturer recommended pressure.
From your own usage, increase or decrease according to your findings,
meaning if tyres have soft sidewall, you may want to increase another 2 psi
or so. Or if tyres are hard, you may want to decrease the pressure.
