thequietman Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Current boots have done 103,000 km's. They are Michelin 245/70/16 and served me well. Still have good thread but 8 years old now! I have only done 103,000 kms on the truck over 8 years, so not a big driver. New Mich's are 20,000 for the set, so lookin for something a little cheaper. So, the following : Deestone - set - 8590 baht Hankook - set - 12.750 Otani - set - 9000 Dunlop - set - 10,890 Goodyear - set - 14,000 Maxxis - set - 10,000 Any experiences for these brands please. I appreciate any input. Its for a Ranger. Many thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAS21 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) Go for Trans's Maxxis ... cheap and cheerful. When you buy just look at the manufactures date ... as you seem to keep them a while .... code will look something like eg 04-18 or 04/18 means made April 2018 Edited September 6, 2018 by JAS21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgdanson Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Changed my original Toyota Vigo's tyres at 96,000 km as they still showed tread, but were wobbling. Got 4 x Maxxiss 700 Bravo x/t's for Bht 18000 in Pattaya. Never any problem, still going strong at 165,000 km. Where can you get Maxxiss for 10,000 a set please?

Any Maxxis dealership in the north or if you like, with Lazada but 1000 baht more. here https://www.lazada.co.th/products/maxxis-at-700-25570r15-4-2018-i8619644-s10824714.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.1.2fcd79fd2cHk6l&search=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornishcarlos Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Go with another set of Michelin... 20K over 6-8yrs is nothing for peace of mind... I put Maxxis (9,500 baht) on our old Nissan but its slow and we don't drive far. We put Michelin on the Ranger but sold it recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was is fulfilled by lazada, LazMall, or a private seller? Certain things like MicroSD cards and certain Apple phones you must be very careful of the vendor in which you buy. Best to buy from the "official" store, LazMall shop. Or by from "Lazada" as seller. Or a private vendor that you trust. These tire that are ฿4k/piece or ฿9k/piece, how many KM are they rated for? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orac Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Would be wary of the Deestones - changed my Bridgestone Duellers for Deestones after 90k over 6 years and they lasted 18 months doing under 20k. Back on Bridgestones now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even most BMW, Toyo and Honda dealerships have a tie up with the likes of Tyre Plus etc. Been a while since i wasnt shown a printout of competitive prices during dealer services. Checked em out on my Mobile, and theres no difference worth a mention. Does rather ruin ones boasting rights though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your information I don't buy tyres at Toyo to expensive. Only use Toyo for service. I could use B/Q but they are at best crap using copy stuff also no cheaper. If you want cheap rubbish tyres suggest peeps go to BQ and get their rumble tyres. Tip I wouldn't trust my life on them. Regardless of what some people say.
