Michelin M45 in bangalore where ?

Ajaybiz · 13th November 2008, 10:21

Bought M45 3.25x18 and Michelin Gazelle M62 3x18 (shopkeeper said its ment for front rim)but i have doubt on them whether they are originals or not as the logo of Michelin is bit different, tomorrow ill put the pics.
Confused that where i can use them as they are good enough to fit in RD, CBZ and RXZ as well.

Its fake , guys what would be the correct upsize for a fiero , i am too looking at the m45's coz ever since i got my fiero converted to 200cc its a bit scary to ride to bike on stock tyres .

The tire guy seems to be running (is that fake?) could you please post the picture of the text Michelin in the tire maybe that helps.

Ajaybiz · 14th November 2008, 09:38

Ill check the M45 which i bought from Sai Iyengar for the logo as the text Michelin is same in all 3 tyres, all are made in Thailand even speed ratings max load deatils are written in same way, but cant say the perfection of these days copy cats.

Ajaybiz · 14th November 2008, 10:24

M lucky guys checked and found theres no issue with the logo its bit different for two wheel tyres compared to 4 wheel tyres, heres some more pics which proofs that

SunnyBoi · 14th November 2008, 11:20

I dont think its possible to make fake tyres. Anyways good to hear ajay got legit stuff

Sankar · 14th November 2008, 12:18

Cool. I've seen running Michelin Man's logo on some of their ads, if he said that based on the logo then it can't be a fake.

chetan · 14th November 2008, 19:53

yup you're right i saw the logo and judged it , hey if the grip is upto the standard of what you were looking then you should be happy and dont go by what others say , sorry .
