225/50/R17 for Peugeot 3008

Same size as Honda Accord.
PS3 in RM650 region.
My friend use Conti CSC5 but bulge and crack after 70 to 80%.
Pirelli P7 also RM620 region
Then Comfort performance Toyo C-1S at around RM500 and Yoko V551 at RM560.
Maybe can check out Toyo T-1 Sports?

C-1S is comfort performance, one rung below UHP tyres like PS3. Those tyres good for comfort and quiet with average dry and wet grip. However comfort performance have smaller grooves therefore after 50% wear the wet performance deteriorate much faster then UPH tyres...

PS3 and XM2 are two different category of tyres. PS3 is UHP and XM2 is entry level.

Hankook V12Evo and GY F1 D5 are the closest to PS3 for perforamnce for your size, however they are both directional tyres
