    I have a 2004 Starex Van. Just 25,000 km, 2 of my Hankook tires showed big cracks after I came from Pangasinan. What is the best replacement tire and model in terms of safety and durability?

    I've been using Michelin Vanpix tires on my Starex for over a year, and they have performed very well.

    My usual route is Urdaneta - Tarlac or Urdaneta - Dagupan, with occasional trips to Quezon City.

    Try to use All terrain tires. Mas matibay than highway tires. We are using LT rated michelin LTX on our e150. grabe sa tibay. Treadwear is 400.

    Thanks for the replies. I went to some tire suppliers. They said Van Pix is already phased out. They are recommending Michelin Agilis instead, quite expensive at P5,150/pc. But they said it is 8 ply.
