so these are the ones im looking at -
Michelin mxv8 - Rs6200. the dealer says michelin sidewalls are too soft for indian conditions and get cut easily and even showed me a michelin tyre of a indigo with a cut sidewall.
Falken Ze912 - Rs5500. the dealer says these are very good and dont have much road noise and the ride will be good. for some reason he is really pushing for these. maybe he gets more commision on them.
Yoko C-Drives - Rs 5600. dealer says these have been around for a while and are good tyres.
i will also find out prices of yoko AVS db decibel V550 and A drive R1 and update here.
what are your views?
i want a tyre with a good amount of grip, low noise and good ride. |
akki bhai ! I think Falken's are good but Yokos are better for performance as i read in many threads here on this forum and elsewhere too. About michelin's mxv8, i cannot comment although i run XM1 for my alto ride and i find it excellent. Regarding Falken's i did read about good reviews in forums abroad but according to some folks on the forum here,they tend to fade away lot quicker than normal. For the price range,performance and comfort i think Yokos deserve this
. However, you can get other members review for Michelin MXV8 as i am total noob on that. Maybe KP bhai might be of help.
