    Was unlucky last weekend to hit a very deep pothole which caused sidewall punctures on 2 of my tires and even chipped one rim. [emoji30] Sayang because my tires still had 3.5mm tread left, enough for about 10,000 km more. But since it was a sidewall cut, no choice but to replace the tires.



    Had to use the hideous stock wheels as I ordered new tires and had the chip on my rim repaired.



    All's well that ends well, finally got a full set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and my rims are like new again. [emoji4]

    Civic 1.8E has 215/55R16 tires, stock set is Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2.

    Civic RS (2016-2018) had 215/50R17 tires, stock set is Yokohama Advan dB.

    Current Civic RS comes with 235/40R18 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.

    Ben's OK Banawe sells the stock Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2 for 4.7k per tire.

    The Hankook is even better than the Advan V701 I had before. It's surprisingly good for an OEM tire.

    215/55R16 is relatively hard to find because 205/55R16 is the far more common size. Only the FC Civic uses 215/55 while many other cars (Altis, Elantra, older Civics) all use 205/55.

    A friend replaced his with Yokohama BluEarth AE50, so that's another option for you. Though I still find the Hankooks to be better tires.

    Have not seen any Ecopia EP300 205/55R16, but would be good to check too if you really want that tire.

    205/55 R16 P5350 per tire

    Since you bought a Michelin Pilot yourself, it means I made a good choice

    Really good price ah, where'd you get it?

    Michelin PS4 is the best daily driver tire you can get for a reasonable price. Ranks #1 in almost all reviews for passenger car tires.

    There are cheaper, grippier tires (Achilles 123S, Westlake Sport RS) but these are designed for track use and are too noisy and wear out quickly for daily use.

    The PS4 has very high levels of grip without sacrificing longevity, road noise, or aquaplaning performance.

    Jiga I also got Michelin for my 2010 Corolla so I stuck to the brand kasi the other brands are much cheaper pa

    I just googled their number and did not write it down. They have a lot of branches (iba iba discount nila pag cash) Mabait yung sa Evangelista very accommodating.

    Ahh Evangelista.. Kung galing ka ng north, from the flyover, pwede ka bang kumanan patungo dun? Baka sabihin ng pulis swerving..
