    Quick question guys...

    Need to buy a set (4 pcs) of 245/40R18 tires. Am trying to choose between:

    1. Accelera
    2. Achilles
    3. Neuton

    I believe these are made in Thailand/Indonesia (not China) and are more or less in same price range (P4,400 - P5,400).

    Any feedback (good or bad) from folks who have used these tires?

    Thanks in advance.

    if no data available.. base your decision on UTQG treadware and traction grades. I prefer lower treadware numbers. its grippier. tires on my car last a year anyways.

    I've used Achilles and Neutons na. From my experience, Neutons are harder to come by. Achilles mas marami sellers. I was on a set of Achilles ATR sport dati then for some reason nag-shred ung front tires. So I switched to Neutons NT 5000. So far so good naman. So ako, either of the two brands okay ako. Siguro whichever is cheaper na lang.

    Don’t get Achilles ATRs. Mine had bulges in the inner side wall after 18 months.

    The Achilles ATR Sport is a bad tire model. If you need Achilles tires for daily driving, get the 2233. This is roughly the same level as the Neuton NT5000 and Accelera Phi.

    If you need very grippy tires (grippier than Bridgestone Potenzas or Yokohama Advans), get the Achilles 123S. Outstanding track tire although it wears out very easily.

    I used Accelera Alpha on the Fiesta. Oks naman, better than the Hankook Optimo which came stock on the car.

    is it the tire, or is it the over-inflating user?

    I kept my tires at a constant 32 psi checked each week. My other tires have never bulged the same way the ATRs did.

    that's bad.... for the brand.

Low budget yet good quality tires
