SIX months have passed since I bought the tyres.  I am very happy with the tyres.  It's ALL ROUNDER all Weather tyres.  I took the Waja to a long distance trip on 5 September 2015.  It's From PJ to Seremban town overnight, then proceeded to Shorea Resort at Berembun, Dusun, Negri Sembilan using part NKVE part trunk roads. 

Enjoy the photos:

The tyres took the challenge, gave me a comfortable ride over all terrains.  I'm also happy with the low tyre noise, it's very quiet in most terrains compared to my previous tyres Pirelli P6.

Also, it went through recent floods in Setia Alam with no aquaplaning, it stayed planted on the road.  

Here's Singapore's review on this tyres:
