Richard,

Txx Mxxx still using that ploy ah? Mine RM380, with trade in RM315 for
215/45/R17.
Currently you are on V8RS is it? How does it hold you turbo?

andrew,

RM320 Think over it. Maybe want to gather more info first. Last week before
raya, the rawang shop mention something like below RM300. Maybe busy and
got wrong info.

rdgs,

andrew,

This shop is new, so no comment, but at Txx Mxxx some mention after go
there than they mention trade in. For some it is not a problem as they are
changing their tyres anyway.
Some mention (at other shops), sometimes tyre quote cheap, but all other
services all got charge.
Credit card got 3% charge........

rdgs,

Wooa... TM give Rm65 trade in per tire ? that is very good. but off
couse la their mark up high on their non trade in price...anyway what
do you think about fair market trade in price of my 17" V8rs with 40%
tread ?

the V8rs are getting noisy and less grip after the tread pattern are
wear off...so V12 are my next replacement .


andrewlim8

Thank you for the inform, if i can get trade in price of rm25 - 30 per
tire, then rm320 will consider good offer.

Richard,

Could be jack up price, if the shop in Rawang is giving at RM320 with no
trade in....ha! ha!

I think the V12 should be very much better than the V8RS.
Please try and let us have feedback...ha! ha!

rdgs,

I just read a Taiwanese car magazine, according to a tyre review, V12evo
performs slightly better than S1evo in terms of handling as the side wall
is a bit stiffer , thus less flex in cornering, and achieved less time in
completing a circuit by using same car n driver.

but 100km/h --- full stop, S1evo took slightly less distance n less time.
noise wise, S1evo is 65db whereas V12evo is 68db during cruising on 60km/h
