i mentioned "fren"..not mine..
no time back le..
a bit feedback on v551, initial feeling was for a premium touring tire, the dry grip was definitely there..u do be surprised..dun have chance to try on wet..
the sidewall doesnt flex much as u do encounter on those touring tire..
the most concern portion shud be the noise level, it is preety quiet on smooth surface and behave at wat it claims, eerily silent, but when it hit those rough or cement type stretch, it amplified quite alot..so actually quite annoying compare to those performance tire noisy all the way be it smooth or rough surface..hahahaha
2 cents
ha! ha! sorry, I thought you referring to us "fren"
Wah! if 205/55R16 with 55 series aspect ratio is not flexing then with 45 series will be quite stiff?
Chargerguy brother using C-Drive 2, say not that quiet, maybe longkang big, but if V551 amplifies on rough route, he may not like either.....

sidewall compared to PLC, behave much much more better le..of cos not yet reach performance type la
the TRUE bro charger actually is performance kaki..he doesnt care much on quietness la..all he want is grip..grip grip and more grip...due to some other reason he forced to change it...hahahaha

Hey guys, how much does 205/55/16 EfficientGrip cost? Thinking of changing to EfficientGrip once my current set of P7 is worn out.

last month i got a rough quote from ban hooi klang, about rm370 for 205/55/16.. he said better take toyo C1S as price not much differ and made in japan. Efficientgrip for this size is made in china.
maybe not much feedback because not many ppl are using this tire, and plenty of alternatives.
