Best Mid-Priced Tires

[red_one]

I prefer mid range tires. These are the prices available for 195 65 R15 at JIGA Evangelista:

Bridgestone - P3900
Michelin - P4300
Yokohama - P3900
Dunlop - P3600
GT - P3300
Federal - P2700
Newton - P3100

Now I am deciding among Bridgestone, Michelin and Yokohama. They don't carry Toyo and Kumho. May phobia na ko sa cheap tires. I had a tire blow out back in college Gajah Tungcal yung brand.

be sure to compare apples to apples. in this case, Passenger tire vs Passenger tire, Sports tire vs Sports tire, Touring tire vs Touring tire, etc. ask for the exact model of the tire and its class. Sports and Touring tires might cost more but they give better performance than your standard Passenger tires.

Minerva Tyre Gallery at Macapagal sells Kumho. Check the production date when buying.

Federal tires ok din. But check the model also. Sikat ang Federal sa budget tire. But vote ko is Kumho ecsta parin

I've heard a lot of good feedback on kumho, nexen, federal, cooper and savero GT which I think is Gajah Tunggal.

Yung bad experience ni Cathy with GT, possible na old stock or under inflated yung tires kaya sumabog.


KILL, we should have a watch thread here in tsikot

go for yokohama kung concern mo is price at the same time performance

kung tibay talaga hanap mo go for michellin or bridgestone kaso mahal nga lang..

kung performance naman as in uber kapit na tires go for nitto kaso medyo maingay lang sa road base sa own experience ko sa car ko

Yokohama G902 for montero is more expensive than Bridgestone dueller

if on a budget, you can select from Budget or Economy brands. head over to the other tread for some ideas.

Since when has Nitto been better than Michelin or Bridgestone?

Dito lang sa Pilipinas mataas tingin sa Nitto (kudos to their marketing guys). Most probably because their tires have fancy tread patterns, which people love to pair with their 20" rims. But fancy tread is not equal to stellar performance.

Also, locally, Nitto doesn't have tires for Cathy's size. They focus specifically on bling-bling SUV/pickup owners.

Cath, cheapest decent tires I've seen when I was looking for tires before for our Altis (205/55 R16) is Dunlop LM704 (4.3k) and Toyo Proxes (4.1k).

They should be much cheaper in 15" size.
