Hey bros!!

 

Which tires do you recommend?  

The Continental CSC5 or Michelin PSS?

 

I went to a workshop and they said that the lifespan of  PSS is shorter than CSC5. Is that true? :phew:

Let me know what you guys think of both tires.... THANKSS!! :P

From a lady's perspective...so so strange...wet is never shiok rite...dry = more grip, more feel...oops...where am I?

PSS if you wants the best..... Goodyear A1S2 if you want value for money...... CSC5 is somewhere in between..... But if it's somewhere in between..... Wouldn't you pay a bit more and get PSS?

I believe there's a difference between CSC5 and CSC5P.

Was on CSC5 before switching to PSS.

So far so good for PSS after couple weeks of usage. CSC5 grip on wet surface is confirmed no good.

Because the rubber is soft, the grip is good but that means the tyre life is short. You've got to replace it at shorter intervals especially if you drive a lot and it's not cheap.

End of the day, gotta balance everything out to suit your own needs. IMHO, CSC5 vs PSS won't make a difference when you do city driving in SG. Most buyers who buy high performance tyres don't even track with it. But if you visit NSH frequently, it'll be good to invest in them.
