[quote=elp;1442759]In my experience.........Bridgestone Potenza RE030 ang sulit na tire for me.
During wet & dry driving, wala ako masabi, makapit talaga sya, na running-flat ko na rin sya for 1km, pero ayos parin after it was vulcanized. No damage sa magwheel ko, samantalang flat-na-flat talaga sya ng pinatakbo ko sa Ayala. Alam nyo naman ang mga MAPSA, huminto kalang sa Ayala, huhulihin kana agad, masyadong mahigpit.

Kaya kahit 5yrs na yun gulong ko, OK parin, considering na spirited-driving ako pag mag-maneho, kahit lubak-lubak ok lang...........


Bridgestone Potenza's a great tire. I asked the new Bridgestone outlet in Alabang about their warranty. 4 years warranty from factory defects. Hmmm... sounds good on paper. US tire warranties run from 4 to 6 years.

Michelin tires of nearby MINERVA Tires are given a 1 year warranty from defects only.

Also, beware of MINERVA (Alabang, Macapagal and Muntinlupa) tire outlets !!! They stock up on tires, maybe to take advantage of price increases (like the gasoline stations). Then they sell tires that are several years old on the shelf. I should know, they passed on a brand new (but 4 year-old stock) of Michelin XM-1 to me.

I didn't know the TIN (Tire Identification Number) by the US Dept.of Transportation then. (Here's one educational link on tires: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tirete....jsp?techid=11).

When the new (old) tire cracked after 1 year, (the wife of the owner) Mrs Espeleta asked for original receipts, said it will take up to 1 month if you surrender the damaged tire, blah, blah, blah.

In short, don't bother me because I don't care about you since I already got your money.

Well, the nearby Bridgestone outlet gave me a 4 year warranty on a set of Potenzas. Plus, better facilites, unlike the greedy MINERVA owners' run-down, smelly shop.

So, shame on unscrupulous businessmen who have no concept of integrity, fair play and customer service! Beware of all the MINERVA Tire outlets - the owners are as honest & helpful as they appear (take a good look at their appearance).

Nakabili din ako sa Minerva ng 4 year old tire recently, Michelin XM1. (I went there due to good feedbacks). Nagtanong muna ako sa technician nila kung anong year ang tire nila, 2009 daw. So okey kumuha ako ng 4 to replace all my tires. When they installed one, nag check ako, 2106 ang code. I checked with sales clerk, okey naman daw yun kasi 6 yrs ang warranty. (Is this really true??? Wala naman nakalagay sa receipt) . Since nasisira na tires ko, nag proceed na rin ako.

Another not so good part is their handling of mags. Narinig ko na lang hinahataw nila during installation of tires on mags. Naalis pala yung small center cap (for the center hole), and they're putting it back or trying to correct it. Pagka-install sa kotse, yupi-yupi na lahat ang mga caps... huhuhu... gasgas din ang circumference ng isang rim. Kahit i-sand paper ko, mahihirapan maalis ang scratches. Kailangan i-facing sa machine shop.

Saka sa kainitan ng tanghali, I noticed na bumabakat ang goma ko sa daan while parking it. (Parang natutunaw na). Well, I'm still a newb driver and owner. Lesson learned. Nagpakalayo pa ako.

Hmm, kaka bili ko palang sa kanila (Minerva Westgate Alabang) ng isang set ng A-Drives. Ok naman service.

Kung gipit sa budget at city driving, try nyo Minerva tyres 195/55 R15_for Php 1,900.00 per PCs. Marami nito dyan sa mga tire center along regalado avenue sa Fairview. Mga China tires marami dyan at mura pa. Tsaka di tumataga ng services mga shop dyan mga lihitimo. Try nyo mga motorista.
