Popular Post KannikaP Posted July 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2023 I got 96000 km from the originals on my Vigo in 2012. I put Maxxiss on twice more, and got slightly less., but considerably cheaper, and the Maxxiss place will align and rotate every 10000km, free of charge. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Maxxis too. 30-40% cheaper and tried and true. Most of the taxis back in Oz run them.

You may have tread left, but it doesn't do you any good sun-damaged sidewall blows. If you have high mileage tires do take time to check the condition of the side walls too. Be safe! I run Michelins on my bike and Bridgestones or Dunlap on my cars. Those are the tires I've had on my cars here in Thailand. But any good, name-brand, premium quality tire will do. I don't go cheap on tires. Your life can depend on them. 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eff1n2ret Posted July 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2023 I had to replace a couple of tyres on my Isuzu DMax a few weeks ago and coughed at the price of Bridgestone and Dunlop, ended up with Nexen Rodian AT Pro at 6380Baht for the pair. They're quite chunky, Korean, reviews of quality seem quite favourable. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lacessit Posted July 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2023 I only buy Michelins, IMO they are much better than other brands in wet conditions. More expensive, it depends on what one thinks their life is worth. 4 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of tread or km are not as significant as age in the Thai climate. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the align and rotate free apply to all Maxxis tyres.... on my MG5 they are stock tyres...does this apply to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im also looking, and checking, found a few negative reviews on Deestone in general. What model you have on your car? The usual tires are actually terrible, especially the R101 model. They disintegrate when they are still new and handle very poorly. They can slide, slip and wiggle in disregard to what their owner wants of them.Bottom line is: only buy mud tires from Deestone, because their regular options are plainly dangerous. https://tirespace.net/deestone-tires/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More expensive well known brands useally means better grip and shorter life expectancy. Tires who still good treads after 100k, I would suspect being dangerous on wet surface and longer braking distances on dry surface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
