In that case I think the shop personnel don't know.
Michelin shops that I know. MPS Auto in Sunway, Kee Hin Tyre in Old Klang Road, Tai Tong Tyre in SS2
Google them and should have there contact info.... smile_thumbup.gif

No, should not be as the Toyo Open Country are H/T tyres, means Highway Terrain. If you look at the thread pattern it is more of block pattern and this contributes to noise. Michelin thread is fine pattern, which will be more quiet.
For your tyre size, Yokohama new Geolandar SUV have both 225/65R17 and 235/65R17. This tyre have evolve from their Geolandar H/T tyre and now have fine thread pattern rather than the previous Geolandar H/T that have block pattern.
I am currently running one set on my Chery SUV (about a month already) and find them to be quiet and comfortable. Mine are 235/60R16 and my previous set were passenger car tyres Conti CC1.
I will be posting my feedback soon, hopefully can do it by today..... smile_tongue.gif

H/T-S is the G051 model

This one....


New Eco Model is the G055


Because many complain H/T tyres noisy. Nowadays many SUV never goes off road and are used on tarmac like mine....hahaha
So Yokohama have come out with a SUV tyre for this

Mine is 16" only and I got them from Quicksave, USJ. Probably you can call them or you can check with shops in Klang. I think Hin Leong should have, heard that they are Yokohama dealer

Thx bro, I have brought new shoe Michellin Lattitude Tour as I called few shops to look for Yokohama Geolandar SUV but they claimed no stock.

I went to KeeHin OKR, they offer me 1pcs MYr550, I don't know whether it is best dealas they are manufactured from Thailand, the price are included balancing +Nitro gas air.

Anyhow, thanks for your recommendations. you are great as without your posting, really blind to look what kind of tyre tht we need, thanksbro!
