Chinese Tires: Ok Ba??

[roydok]

I have seen a proliferation of different chinese branded tires in the market. Maganda na ba quality nila as compared to their Jap, U.S. or Euro counterparts? Are they good options for off-road? on-road? They are cheaper.

[ARB]

nope they are not. basing my experience sa china made truck tires they last only 3-6 months compared to india, thailand, which lasts for more than a year. yung lang three china tires is to two others ang price.

[pajerokid]

Any feedback on Nankang tyres? Are these chinese?

malamang chinese tires yan. less than 6 months lang din ang mga chinese tires sa experience namin sa mga delivery trucks. nagswitch na kami sa gajah tungal.

i saw chinese tires on a bus once...kinabahan ako, coz nagkakaroon na ng visible cracks sa sidewall. forgot the brand na, it's one of those cheesy brands that have chinese characters on the side

i wonder if chinese tires can be rethreaded...and if so, for how many times...

[scarab]

...ano ba mga chinese branded tires? truck applications lang ba? 6 months is such a short life span for tires.

Ang naalala kong chinese brand yung Double Coin, mabilis nga maupod. Kaya good business naman kay Bandag.

[badkuk]

eto lang masasabi ko -- ayaw ko naman maging biased masyado against china-made stuff...pero you usually get what you paid for

I won't try my luck on cheap tire...
As much as possible I will fit my my ride with the best tires in term of safety, reliability, performance and aesthetic look in that order.

Some chinese tires that I know of are Woo Shung, Sino Stone, Maxxis, etc... I heared Maxxis offers LT Tires that may fit most off-road SUVs and trucks. Are they good enough? what about the Gajah Tunggal?

[zechs]

nag-try kami dati woo sung (korean made tyre naman) after a year or so, lumabas na yung mga steel sa gulong..napapalit tuloy kami kaagad ng 1 set of tires...

I just purchased a pair of "Tornado" brand tires for my car. Sabi sa akin ng shop, Bridgestone sister company daw 'yon? Has anyone heard of Tornado Tires?

Help! I am looking for dealers in used/second hand tires coming from Japan or Malaysia in the M.M. area. Am also interested to deal in new tires imported from China. Please, can anyone refer me to the right contacts?

Sir, nagkalat po ang mga dealers nito along Blumentrit. Just take a pick.

Yung Maxxis yan yun stock tires ng verita namin. Sa venture namin Cheng Shin ata... not sure. Basta parang ganyan. Ayos naman yung amin. Tumagal din naman yung Cheng Shin. Due for replacement na ata, mga 40K na ata tinakbo. Yung Maxxis parang ang bilis maubos mga 20K lang pudpod na sobra.

look pal,all tires are same they are all intend to use any kind of vehicles.not unless this is not round! different is only the quality,the chinese made tire is still not well knowned in the world market like other brand which is already proven.they just start to compete and invade the world tire market and iam still never heard that they have an award or member of " ISO " regarding on tire manufacturing.anyway,we are speaking here the safety of our family and once you in the road accident is free,why you have to risk the lives of your loveone's? we can't avoid accident but we can prevent it!!!

kunting deperensiya lang yang at isa lang ang buhay natin,pero ang pera kikitain mo yan...

nasabi kulang sayo ito,dahil i've been so many years encounter and i involve this R.T.A.(road traffic accident) co'z this is my job, almost 70 percent fatal accident in RTA is tire problem, di kuna siguro kailangan sabihin o' ikuwento kung buhay o' patay ang sakay! just good advice,buy a good stuff and you wont sorry for yourself and your family...

[pitbullz]

malamang ang target nila yun mga jeepneys...what you save on tires you pay in comfort saftey and also sa fuel consumption hehehe pero kung pang delivery lang siguro o province ok lang...sayang naman kasi kung mamahalin tapos masisira lang sa offroad hehehe

[badkuk]

hmm...pag jeep ata usually rethreading ang ginagawa...if that's the case, imho it would make more sense to invest in a set of good tires that can be rethreaded over and over

[albert_b]

wouldn't it be great if one of those car magazines or car tv shows would make an entended life tests on these tires. See how much mileage they can last given the current conditions in manila.

Woosung is Korean, Nankang is Taiwan, Gajah Tunggal (which makes Savero and Champiro tires) is Indonesian.
