Wa Alaikum Salam.

Of course tyres make a lots of difference and also affect road grip, ride quality, etc. If you can manage / afford to change tyres, you may change them, and buy the tyres made by reputed companies like Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone, Continental, etc.

Btw, why did you install Chinese brands tyres?

Yokohama isn't that bad, however, due to softness and less noise, they are a bit prone to punctures, especially the Advan dB series (extremely soft, and soft tread and sidewall), that's why I didn't recommend it, otherwise, if you wanna go for Yokohama, you can go, however, keep in mind that Advan dB import has been discontinued long ago officially.

Whichever brand you choose, just buy 100% genuine import, non smuggled, original tyres, with warranty. Do not buy smuggled tyres. They may be equally painful.

i think...if the rubber is in gud shape...not bent or deformed...it shud also give u almost same level of comfort...
get the wheels alignment done from good shop with high speed wheel balancing....it will show if there is any problem with rubber,...

no rubber is massively different of the manufacturers.

too much vulcanizing or too much age gives hard rubber, which is not flexible, causing a hard ride.

Zeetex ZT1000 shud not be that bad to make car bumpy....and on carpeted roads it wont matter MASSIVE at all...

Thanks for the reply everyone

My Camry is 2013 model USA and i have 16inch genuine japnes alloy

I am thinking about continental ZETAX is just a brand they don't even have factory they did not mention anything about the tyre compound used

All you can see online is some fake reviews and fancy commercials where girls are dancing and cars drifting no logical explanation what's special in it

Well i will chose continantal Tyre i will do sounds demping also.
