    My daily drive is SLEX so comfort and noise was priority.

    Coming from Dunlop LM704, installed Westlake SU318. The price was too good to be true but the shop highly recommended them.

    Thankfully this tire exceeded all my expectations. Even grip was better than the Dunlop. Would consider them for my next replacement.

    Thats interesting

    Im using those Dunlops now and they pretty decent, much better than the original run flats that came with the car. The dunlops are much better in the rain than the original set. The car no longer changes lane by itself when it hits a puddle on the skyway.

    Akala ko pinalitan na ang Westlake ng new brand name.
    Meron pa pala? My previous car spent 7 yrs using this tires and wala akong problema sa unit even on long trips.

    Good Ride yata yung isang brand name ng westlake..

    experience ko sa westlake maingay eh.. minsan kasi wala masyado documentations or review sa tire series nila kaya hirap pumili.. di mo alam kung ano yung premium vs sa regular tires nila

    I've been using Goodride sa Swift namin so far ok naman. got it weeks before pandemic started around March 2020. car used only for grocery trips.

    to date, km run since started using Goodride is around 13k kms pa lang. no issues naman so far. and i agree ma ingay nga

    It fits my use because I only use 7k kms a year, and lesser now after the pandemic. That's just 35k kms for 5 years which is the suggested life span of a tire.
    For my own experience for sedans, regular tires last us around 30k kms to 35k kms max.

    I haven't managed to wear out any of my ecotires (changed my ecopias to bluearth because I really couldn't bear the road noise anymore after just 18k kms). They should last around 50k kms max I think (correct me if I am wrong) and I do have them rotated every 10k kms to allow for even wear at least on 4 tires rather than just the front wearing out first.

    I came across a site that said the "rated" fuel economy (EPA) vs with ecotires improved their figure by 1 to 2% that's why I wonder if it really matters much for city driving conditions (below 20kph average) when more rolling resistance is encountered at higher speeds, especially if most of the travel is stuck idling in traffic. Hehe!

    Yes, I was referring actually to bluearth when I mentioned eco (economy) tires. I never had experience with Bridgestone ecopia because they still cost more than the Yokohamas. Naalala ko tuloy, when I dumped my 50k super worn out bluearths (I always change all 4s) someone asked me for it. A few weeks later, I found them mounted on a Civic parked in a community mall.

    I agree medyo maingay siya.
    But if maganda naman sound proofing ng car mo, I think hindi siya magiging issue lalo na if city driving lang.
    Goodride nga pala pinalit ko sa previous car pero parang after months of use, nadali ng pako ata, not sure ano nakabutas ng tire na yun.

    If may binebenta pa ring westlake, will try to look for this again for my next tire replacement.

    Ang lalim eh, ginamitan ng injection ng shell automechanic to patch the holes.
    First time kong nakakita ng ganung patching technique, hindi na need i remove yung tires when they patched it.

    Cooper is a tried and tested off-road tire for me. Very good performance imho. Much better than my experience with Savero, slightly better compared with Dunlops and Bridgestone AT tires in terms of durability.

    Sailun is mainly used by shuttle vans (Hiace and Urvan) here in our province so I assume that it has performed well enough to be a mainstay in many public utility vans.

    Durability in terms of long term use is one thing I don't have an info but reliability I can safely say is good.

    For what car? I would recommend Otani. Less than 4k for sedans and around 5k for SUVs. Made in Thailand and with very decent specs.

    iyong sailun recommended to me by a trucking firm friend. so ginamit ko din sa ppv namin and so far so good. haven't had any problems although iyong gamit ko iyong all terrain tires nila para medyo aggressive tingnan ...although i seldom go off the tarmac. ok naman ang road noise. i don't actually notice it naman din compared doon sa stock bridgestone rubbers niya dati (dueler h/t variant ata iyon)

    sa kotse ang gamit ko indonesian made neuton tires. surprisingly mas tahimik siya sa bridgestone stock tires niya dati. although city driving lang din naman siya. useful din iyong rim protectors niya so no complaints.
