Put3,- masama talaga ang kutob ko... Hay naku....

In comparison, my dear GS(25KKm) still has very good tyres,- had them rotated a few weeks ago, also at Minerva.

CVT, kumusta performance ng kumho compared to the OEM nexen?
How will you know that your tires are oblong?

OO nga sir CVT anong model pala ng Kumho yan? Bakit yung Hankook RA08 ang gaganda ng review sa ibang bansa.

Yung nexen panget in my opinion. Oblongin

Saan may available and how much?
How about Nankang sp5, available ba for vans?

To add, just learned na may mahabang hiwa daw ang nexen tire namin. Time to replace for safety purposes!

Pero tingin ko, sakto lang ang 225, basta importante mataas ang treadwear rating

Yung stock Nexen nasa 104 ang tread rating, yung mga 225/65/17 na nakita ko kadalasan nasa 102 ang load rating, I guess its not too far off and besides our GS rarely gets fully loaded.

Kumho PorTran KC53 ang model ng gulong

215 70R16C 108/106T

I was a rider yesterday and I should say that it was no different from the original Hankook tyres.

I asked our company driver, how's the braking performance and he told me, the same with the old tyres.

Our (personal) GS still has the original Hankook tyres, btw.

Sa mga tire shops meron neto.
Nag inquire ako dito sa Jiga malapit sa amin.

I have just checked. The specs of the Kumho Tyres I posted yesterday is exactly the same as the OEM Hankook RA08 Tyres I have in our GS

* sir ron

Yung load rating talga na mataas ang mahirap hanapin sa gs but as mentioned di naman pang kargahan so ok lang

Yung oem na 108 load index ia good for 1ton per tire

And yung 102 is good for 850kg per tire so thats 3400kgs total

And since gs is aprox 2200kgs may remaining 1200kgs pa for load

But having a higher load index may be better for that extra buffer zone
