Dunlop (UK but owned by Goodyear which is American)
Toyo (Japan)

I have the tendency to choose Yokohama as it is locally manufactured here. Why?

bravo!
tangkilikin ang sariling atin!

update lang: i finally chose a set of sailun terramax a/t tires. sa mga nabasa ko na aussie reviews maganda daw ang performance sa kanila kaya i decided to try this out na lang din. and maganda iyong deal na binigay sa akin kaya hard to refuse

so far ok ang performance niya nung nag out-of-town ako this weekend. tahimik naman at hindi madulas sa ulan. and maganda ang appearance niya, relatively speaking.

yes a/t iyong oem tires ko bro. dunlop a/t 20 grandtrek to be exact. parang konti nga lang ganun nakikita ko dati na ganyan ang tires straight from the casa

hindi pa ako maka decide kung ano kunin ko bro eh. few hundreds lang naman actually difference nila all-in-all pero kasi hindi ko alam kung malaki ang difference nila in terms of road noise.

kung relatively same lang ang produce nila na road noise baka mag a/t na lang uli ako

Dunlop AT20 din stock ni 2012 Monty ko.

Ilan percent pa goma mo bago ka nagpalit? 6 years narin stock ko pero makapal pa. Next year palit narin to.

Anyone, magkano price range BF goodrich, Bridgetone, Cooper All terrain same specs ng monty?

Second hand ko nabili monty at 11,800 km now after 1 year and 4 months 34500 km. Makapal pa nga e. My plan is this coming December or early next year palit goma. Sabay kasi upod pads ngayon and upcoming 40T kms PMS which madugo din. Ipon muna hehehe

medyo serviceable pa naman ang treads niya pero hindi na din ako comfortable kapag long drives...especially in this kind of off & on wet weather we're having. and nagpalit na din ako considering sa tingin ko mag mamamahal pa mga goma in the near future because of inflation and the dollar exchange. inunahan ko na

Wow! Thanks for this! Helpful indeed!

My stock mags specs for tires is 215 / 50 R17, is there a negative effect if I will use 225 / 50 R17 & go against the stock specs? Just curious.

As long as tire diameter does not exceed 5% difference, you will be fine. You can use either 225/45/17 or 225/50/17, difference is just around 2%.

Related to this... how about if my stock tires are 245/60R18. Should I go with 255/55R18 or 265/60R18?

One size going up is fine... two steps higher is risking too much.

If you increase tire size, chances are you will have increase in fuel consumption.

Just to make it look a bit wider and sometimes depends on the availability of the desired size per brand.

With 245/60r18 as OEMs, 255/60r18 will give you about the same ride height. 255/55r18 is too low.
