The Best Brand of Tires

[painkiller]

good pm mga tsikoteers. a few days ago nasabugan ako nang gulong sa rear im using a dunlop 195/70r15 stock size of my 2002 super grandia. the tire is just less than 1 yr old and maybe less that 10k tinakbo. since luma yung 2 front tires also dunlop i am planning to change all of my tires. went to goodyear and they gave me 3 choices 195/70r15 durasport 8 ply P4,742 195/70r15 bridgestone 6ply P4,916 and 205/70r15 wrangler HP 8 ply P4,005. since medyo mabigat 4 tires at once. Ask ko lang kung ano sa palagay nyo mas ok ? and ano ba advantage and disadvantage kung gawing ko 205 ang gulong.? thanks

and ano ba advantage and disadvantage kung gawing ko 205 ang gulong.? thanks

Pros: It will increase the grip and better handling than before...
Cons: The great possibility to increase the fuel consumption..

Hi to all!

I had been doing a lot of back reading to this thread and I can't seem to find any contact numbers to Hongly in Sucat.

I am planning to visit them this weekend and planning to call them first to decide what tires are ok and in stock.

I'm planning to buy yoko tires as I don't have the budget (I have 2 tires yoko tires already, so far ok naman) Planning to buy another two for the front.


Can anyone give some information if Hongly is open on Sundays and what is there store hours?

Any contacts is very much appreciated.


Thanks in advance!

Good afternoon,

I bought dunlop le mans 205 last year replacing the stock yokohama 195 tires of my ever dependable revo. Unfortunately, I was naive on the importance of the tire's manufacturing date and I bought a 2004 manufactured dunlop tires. So now, I am planning to buy a new set of tires.

Any suggestion on what tires are good for revo?

Is it ok to use 205 tires to the stock rims of my revo which had a stock 195 tires?

Is there a way to check the tires if it can fit on a rim originally stocked of a 195 tire?

sir, i had a revo also and i had a plan to change my tires 195/65/15 to 205/70/15. ask ko lang po kung kasya ba sa revo VX200 ang 205/70/15 di ba sya sasayad kahit mapuno? o sa baiglang liko?
may nabasa po ako dito dati na maganda daw po na tires sa revo ay
Dunlop Lemans/ SP 70E. 205/70/15.
mababasan daw po tagtag nya. yon nga po balak ko bilihin kaya lang tanong pa rin ako dito sa mga tsikoteers baka meron pang mas maganda na brand ng tires para sa revo.. magkano po bili nyo sa dunlop le mans 205?

[crystalineblue]

Di ko nasubukan gawing 70 ang 65. Di rin ako sigurado kung di sasayad. Basta ang sigurado kakasya pa rin ang 205 sa stock wheels ng vx200 at di na precise ang odometer at speedometer mo kung gagawin mong 70.

Bili ko nuon ng le mans... 3T plus

san yung bukol? sa tire surface o sa sidewall?

[Bubbachuck]

san yung bukol? sa tire surface o sa sidewall?

sa sidewall lang sir.. pero sa may baba.. pwede pa kaya un?

[claRkEnt]

sa sidewall lang sir.. pero sa may baba.. pwede pa kaya un?

whoa... medyo delikado yan... sidewall then bandang ibaba where the pressure builds up...risk of explosion is high. better have it changed asap.

agree with clarkent, mas delikado ang bukol sa sidewall kesa sa surface itself (although delikado din ang bukol sa surface). pero ang bukol sa sidewall holds the pressure so baka biglang sumabog yan.

kabayan,

years ago... i recall that we had our 2002 revo's tire changed in late 2004 or early 2005 to 205/70/15 still using the 15 stock rims and it rode better (i.e. more compliant ride yet enhanced road grip) and if there ever was an increase in gas mileage, it definitely was negligible dahil hindi ko napansin man lang kung nagbago yung consumption.

ang tanda ko ay yung goodyear ducaro ang nabili ko and even remember that aside from the above ay lesser road noise pa sya...

add ko din na we're a big family at madalas ay puno hanggang sa kasu-kasuan yung revo and never sya sumayad in any way.

hope this helps.

:peace:

For people that are looking into excellent bang for the buck tires, i have had good feedback from people that are using Federal in the 15 inch size for cars.

The Federal EVO 595 SS from what a PNTCC driver has said who used it on the track is much grippier and stable specially when worn down to 60% and gets better as it wears down. from what they say better than the ADVAN Neova AD07 and waaay cheaper. treadwear is at 260. 2.5K+ a piece depending on where you buy it.

if you are looking at a Racing Intermediate tire that is thousands cheaper than the competition, the Federal RSR has a treadwear of 80 which i still need to get feedback as far as performance is concerned. somewhere around the 3K + range in the 15 inch size for cars.

salamat mga sir.. basa muna ko kung anong maganda and affordable brand..

[Bubbachuck]

mga sir so far my choices are bridgestone potenza, michelin sport and Achilles Platinum.. anybody knows price for each? I read that Achilles Platinum is cheap.. But which is cheaper between bridgestone and michelin?

i found a nice site about tire ratings: Customer Tire Survey.
