    What are good, reasonably priced tires for an L-300 Service vehicle?

    The original Yokohamas lasted only 1 1/2 years due to heavy usage. Napodpud at nakalbo na kaagad. Need to replace all 4 already.

    I was looking at Apollos, Nangkangs, and Kumhos. Are chinese brands (West Lake, Sailun) any good?

    Any recommendations and experiences?

    How kms did it travel in 1 yr? We’re using Toyo tires on our L300. So far happy with the tire wear. Got it 3,500 each. Made in Japan siya last time i got a set.

    From March 2020 when we got this brand new up to today, 39,500km na ang odometer reading.

    Nagtanong ako sa malapit na tire shops dito at walang Toyo (gulong ha hindi sauce, herherher) available.

    Sa blumenttrit ako nakahanap Toyo before. I would avoid China made tires since price difference is not that much naman compared to Toyo. My thinking is, for delivery yung van so i also got better tires din. You lose money sa downtime

    Tama ka dyan. In our case, for the safety of the staff at driver din ito since naglalagare ito sa south at panay daan din sa mga expressways.

    Yung Nankang (made in Taiwan, not China) okay kaya? It is the most reasonably priced that I have canvassed so far.

    I have never tried Nankang sa van namin. Mga na try ko before, Goodyear, Dunlop, CS, Vee Rubber. Goodyear yung medyo ok, nasa 40,000km talaga thread life niya. The rest, either mabilis tumigas rubber, or nag oblong. So far sa Toyo ako naging satisfied with tires sa van namin.

    Might pull the plug on the Nankangs.

    Asked for a bit more details and it is NK Van CW-25, 102/100R, 8 ply, 0521.

    Checked the web for reviews and okay naman ang feedback - not excellent but not bad either. It is placed in the middle and good value for money.

    Bridgestone Duravis. I see this tires installed on a Hiace, they might offer sizes for the L300.
