this may be helpful, brands were grouped from premium to economy.

Thank you sir! I was surprised that GT Radial is on the economy tyre category.

Same phenom IMO yang GT sa Vic at MRF na tires. Akala ng karamihang drivers porket marami nagbebenta eh yan na ang da best. Ayaw na subukan yung iba halos. Kaya nagkakaroon ng halo effect sa brand.

Tried BStone Dueller At's at GT Savero sa strada, mas madali mapudpod GT savero by almost 30% in my estimation. ganun kalayo. sa GT savero 4 years max lang, sa Bstoe inabot ng 6 years.

MRF sa mga big tires? mas ok pa Apollo. At mas mura.

Vic oil filter, marami better at mas mura. Sa Bosch na lang wala na siya panama eh.

Anyone who has experience with Runway tires?

I just keep wondering lately what makes those Taiwan, China and Indonesian tire brands cheaper then the usual tires we know from before? Brand pricing? Quality of materials? R&D?

Place of manufacture or labor probably isnt really much since the big brands also have manufacturing facilities in similar places.

When i was shopping the other week for tires to put on the rims i got for my daily drive, the price range of the tire size i was looking for (215/50R17) ranged from 3K+ for the China/Indonesian brands to 8K for the premium brands. I settled for the bukol notorious Dunlop's at 5.5K per pop because i couldnt find Kumho Ecstas in those size (retail at 6K+) while the Toyos were too pricey for the budget i had set, at 8K+ per tire. Goodyear, Yokohoma and Bridgestone did not have any stock of the size i wanted.

Cheap tire na madali mapudpod but so far yan ginagamit ng mga GT express vans dito sa amin kasi nga mura. Hindi naman nababalita na pumuputok or nagkakabukol but madali mapudpod. For a light vehicle na hindi naman performance car puwede na din siguro.

Won't buy one though.
