But for top performance for our cars, it must be PS2 or Z1.

Agree. I'm using the Kumbo now and it works well on my previous car also. Again, welcome for the test drive on the ride and road noise. At that price, you really cannot get anything good in Japanese model.

How will that compare with the 3M newer version with yours? I was told from pinguhk that the blocking % is big different. I may get mine tinted this week.

I tried Hankook before, not feeling good. Maybe it is good for small cc family car or 7 seater. Yes, it's price is very competitive.

Same with most other mods, it is very subjective!

I guess you just have to compare apples to apples... same grade of tyres of one company to same/similar level to another. Cant compare the shittest tyre from Korean brand to top notch Michelin...!!!!

i don't know, i just read the tire rack tests and get a #2 or 3 or 4 rating in wet and dry weather reviews.
the #1 is usually Michelin, by a mile but can't afford to pay for that rubber as it is 30% more expensive,
i am a high mileage guy and
i prefer to spend the money on nicer wheels.
