Hi,
So I need to change all four tyres for my car. And I'm just looking around for which tyres to get.
I had a look at costco, which they have michelin tyres. But they're $150 each (including fitting, but no wheel alignment).
I've used Korean tyres in the past and they've been fine, no problems with them. But they're about $120 each.
So as you can see, michelin are not immensely more expensive, but I just wanted to gather some opinions on whether you would say it's really worth that extra $30 or so for michelin tyres.
Or if you have any other recommendations, please let me know!
Thank you!
EDIT: I drive a 2010 honda jazz! I do a reasonable amount of driving, for both work and personal use; 300-350 km/week. No real long distance drives.
Update: Sorry! I think people are getting the impression that I want to spend minimum amount of money on tyres, but that's not what I meant. I was basically asking whether you guys thought the more expensive tyres like michelin is worth the value compared to a good Korean tyre. I would never compromise for cheap, crappy tyres!
Thanks for all your input.
As long as it is a well known brand, European Jap or Korean, it should be OK. Just be careful if you get unknown Chinese brands!
