Can try Nexen N8000 also.....
Thanks for the feedback bro....
This morning I decided to give it (champiro HPY) a try.... Changed 4 tyres @ rm 275 per piece....manufactured (2511)
Thread wear 300 while traction rated AA and temp. A...
Initial feeling is ok.. Noise is very minimum... I would rated it 8/10...
As for performance (grip)... I rather comment it after scrubbed in period...hehe
Already tried it beyond 200kmh at lekas hiway and 140kmh on rainy condition (still stable)...
This tyre has 3 big and 1 small drainage groove... I would say good aquaplaning resistance (8/10)...
Will try to give feedback here after my tyres fully scrubbed in...hehe

To me, I think they are not bad. That was why I wanted to test these tyres.
GT Radial have made a name for themselves already. HPY again is their top range model and is the top Y speed rated
Some reviews...

dry grip = 8/10 (grip more less same as previous PP1)

It is the wet handling that is more important, as most tyres performs pretty well in the dry......

yup bro...agreed....
in terms of aquaplaning resistance , this tyre really performs..managed to cruise 130-140 kmh in soaking heavy rain when travelled to penang last week...no problem.
its wet handling (cornering and braking) which i cannot quite fully test it...in terms of normal driving in wet, no problem at all..
p/s: this tyre need at least 1k mileage to be scrubbed in before i can feel the difference in grip (dry grip at least)...

Yup, test quite a few tyres. Even entry level performs quite well in the dry......
