Yokohama S306 - are they a good buy?

[ET1]

Any comments on this tire? Tire size is 205/50/16.

Thanks

[orly_andico]

it's the cheapest tire. and probably the crappiest.
for not much more, i believe the goodyear ducaro ga is more recommended.

I'm particular bias towards low noise and comfort. Does Ducaro GA offer these features?

R50? masyado yatang low profile? yung sa lynx and xwind 205 R60 15. Tahimik sya kahit high speed. mahina nga lang grip on wet pavement.

[theveed]

Di masyado tahimik ang S306 in my benz before...

yep medyo maingay nga siya sa semento...i felt/heard the difference when i shifted to Bridgestone Potenza G3...

[vinj]

They're noisy but the wet grip and threadwear is much better then the Goodyear NCT 3's (the king of crappy tires in my book). Unless the price difference is good, i'd look at the newer model tires out there.

I just bought a set of the S306's for our Civic but the price was really unbeatable.

Oh yes, crappiest of the crap are the NCT3s hehe, I've used cheap China ones that are much much better than those.

I think nasa 1700 lang ang 14" S306 diba... Cheaper daw yung binebenta sa PriceSmart

Yang S306 pa naman ang balak ko ilagay sa fronte ko wala na kase Hankook na R12 eh..I guess I have to buy those chen shin tires again..

PM mo si baiskee pre, baka may mura syang tire.

E sino naman po nakasubok na sa inyo ng either Falken Ziex 512, Dunlop LM02, Bridgestone GIII or Yokohama C.Drive. Litong lito na po ako! Di ko alam what to pick. Thanks

[orly_andico]

david, ano yung "chinese tires better than NCT3?"
interested ako hehehe..

for comparison purposes, yung 195/60R15 na S306 is 2100 and the Ducaro GA is 2450. kabibili ko lang eh hehehe..

[MAXBUWAYA]

double happiness try mo hehehehe

is the S306 still in production? kung stop production na baka mga luma na mabili mo, from what ive heard naeexpire daw ang gulong

I have them as OEM in my SiR before. ok naman, now i have 2 on a GSR, ok pa din naman better than the dunlod lemans Both r14

[theveed]

can't remember na actually hehe, 1300 lang sya dati nabili ko sa may Cainta.

[caloyski5]

theyre crappy tires..prone to chunking, slippery when wet .. slipperiest when dry :D hehehe crappier pa rin nct3 though

im now using ducaro ga. . much much much better. .

[BoEinG_747]

im now using ducaro ga. . much much much better. .

sir caloy..hindi ba madulas sa wet road ang Ducaro GA ?

[A121]

may nexen or nankang ba na ganung size?

[kmo]

hndi daw e sa mga review maingay daw tsaka dumudlas ! mas ok mag yokohama ASPEC kna lang or Bridgestone GR80

[flakez]

hmmm... yokohama pa naman pinapahanap sa akin ng erpat ko dati, but fortunately lahat walang stock. nauwi tuloy ako sa 195/50r16 bridgestone potenza g3, ok na ba to? napansin ko kasi ung traction niya A lang. e ung gamit ko dati na falken AA. saka may nakita ako potenze din na AA. hindi ko lang alam kung anong model pero 45r17 ata un.

[squala]

Pansin ko sa G3 (205/45 ZR16) medyo maingay sa magaspang na kalye, pero nagagandahan ako sa kapit for everyday driving wet and dry.

Meron bang S306 na ganyang size?
