[QUOTE="shaifulo, post: 37355, member: 74"] i have only used the first 2 sizes you mentioned.the first offers better acceleration coz they have smaller diameter of course. The shorter sidewall also helps at corner, u feel it's stiffer. On the other hand, the smaller diameter makes your car very low....i always 'sagat' the speedbum and has to go sideways over those bumps. Now, I'm on the 2nd size and this thing never happened again.On tire brand, now im using the ES100, great in wet condition, overall i'm more satisfied now as compared to when I was using Potenza RE711.sorry can't comment on the 3rd size...never use, but IMHO wider is better (true only on dry)....i think cornering in wet will be worse than the 1st two since bigger tire surface touching the wet road from side to side....just plain physic i think.
