Bridgestone vs Goodyear vs Dunlop

**bail** · April 13th, 2015 03:21 AM

I have a corolla 97 which uses the 185 65 r14 tire. Currently im using good year assurance. So far ok naman siya been using goodyear for so many years already. Im planning to change tire na sana, should i continue to use goodyear? or dunlop and bridgestone are better? meron din kasi promo yung bridgestone na 3+1 kaya medyo tempting :D

Bridgestone is the best in the lot sir.

the 3 plus one ng bridgestone is a bit misleading.
They will offer you a 3 plus one promo based on SRP price ng gulong.

There are dealers who are already offering a max cash buy discount of 25% less on srp. This is essentially the same as the 3 plus one promo. so parang marketing lang yung 3 plus 1.

Been using potenzas (Re001 and Re002) on my innova. best grip on wet, compared to dunlop lm703. grip is comparable to michellin ps3. These are based on daily drive only.
Ive never used goodyear pa due to horror stories ive read here.

bridgestones din ako.
ayoko ng goodyear, maingay....
dunlop had that reputation na manipis/malutong ang sidewalls.

also consider Gajah Tunggal.....
Yokos are also ok.

Never had issues with bridgestones. Wala akong masabi sa quality. Mauubos mo talaga yun tread nang tire. Sulit!

Bridgestone :2thumbsup:. Parang eraser nga lang.

We should really start comparing each tire size/brand/tread pattern independently. There's a broad range of quality in each brand. Although it's true that some brands are worse across the whole lineup.

AFAIK for 185/65r14 Ecopia EP200 is the only tread pattern available for Bridgestone. The equivalent for Yokohama is Blue Earth AE01. Both are fuel saving tires. Yokohama also has a regular non-fuel saving tire "C Drive". No experience using either but a friend who has a shop says these tires don't have many returns/complaints.

Forgot the tread pattern of Goodyear and Dunlop for that size but I would stay away from them due to the number of complaints from separations from Goodyear and weak sidewalls from Dunlop.

Would be great if you can post which dealer this is. When I checked with Minerva, they said the 3+1 promo is good only with Bridgestone shops, not the dealers.
