Bridgestone Dueler H/T

I have these as OEM tires of my ride. How good are they both on-road and off-road? :D

**OTEP** · June 9th, 2003 12:55 AM

They are primarily designed for use on road. As such they are not fitted with much sidewall protection or the aggressive tread pattern of their A/T and M/T cousins.

They are also a bit prone to 'bukol' especially in the sidewall areas.

But they are quiet and refined. I don't know about on-road traction. Hanggang sakay lang ako, eh. hehehe.

Thanks sir Otep. Ano po ba iyong gray colored belt na nakapulupot sa rear tire ng Pajero ninyo sa sig ninyo sir? Thanks.

tow straps po yan.

ginamit po yan nung hinila yung jimny while we were going up high peak

Sir tebs,

Bakit naman po hinila ang Jimny? Mahina po ba ito sa off-road? :?

**tebs** · June 9th, 2003 01:27 AM

not a bit! sa totoo nga, bilib kaming lahat dun sa jimny na yun e.

isipin mo ha, naka h/t tires, all stock. nakaabot sa taas ng bundok na puno ng bato ang daan. click mo yung link sa signature ko, dami pic dun(pbase ko)

umiwas sya sa mga taong nakatayo sa trail, di sinasadyang mashoot sa gilid na malalim ang butas. kaya kinailangang hilain.

after that incident, the jimny just hopped up to the peak :mrgreen:

sa anong car yan nakakabit? dueler din stock sa cr-v... i find it a bit noisy. pero tolerable naman.

**Mike2** · June 9th, 2003 01:34 AM

Strada po sir cardsVR.

OEM tires din ito ng strada ko. Replaced them when I reached 10,000 kms. for safety reasons. Madaming bad reviews including madali daw sumabog, as what sir otep had mentioned, prone sa bukol sa sidewall, it wears fast, etc. From my experience with these tires, ride comfort was mediocre(matalbog at rough ang ride), traction was bad, maingay ito considering dapat quiet siya dahil highway tire siya(mas tahimik pa ang pinalit ko na Yokohama Geolandar a/t +2), and very noticeable ang thread wear after 10k kms.

stock tire din ng pajero. 36th kmd tinakbo. so far wala pang bukol. thread wear sa tingin ko aabot pa ng 50 to 60 th. pantay naman ang kain niya. nagexperiment din ako sa tire pressures pag 28psi umiiyak sa tight turns, pero nung 35 psi na makapit na siya. in theory akala ko nga mas may grip pag low pressure. IMO
