Neuton Tyres are not new in Malaysia, however the distribution are now taken over by YHI (M) Sdn. Bhd. Yes, the same distributor of Yokohama tyres here.

 

Their UHP range of tyres are namely the NT5000 (Directional) and NT8000 (Asymmetric) pattern

Both tyres are rated Threadwear 320, Traction AA, Temperature A

 

Hopefully pricing will be good by the new distributor then can try them out.....Tyres are Made in Indonesia.

Been using nt8000 for about 30k mileage, front already 60-70% wear off, wet handling so so (even new).  I would say I'll not try it.again in future.

Oh! how is the dry handling? For 30k km mileage 60-70% wear for front did you rotate the tyres?

I wish to rotate but my rear tyre already wear off at internal thread due to camber setting.

I main drive it to work and home, not much fast driving or hard cornering, so I would say dry handling just normal.

However, wet drive I really have concern especially on aquaplanting.

Hmmm...4 straight grooves and 3 large ones some more and still have aquaplaning problem......
