I will also vote for Hankook. Silent and comfort

depends on what type of tyres you are looking for. I think they have very good sports tyres too

wow...300 for 4 tyres not bad but for my 215/45/17 will not come cheap.

My current one is Kumho from Korea so would like to know which country is the Hankook made from?

I'm also using Hankook.

Damn lasting. I've run 80k km on them already. Due to change soon too.

Will be sticking to this.

They have a branch in Toh Guan.

there is one in Kaki bukit too... but too far from west

Price is almost the same as Kumho (MIK/MIV) that I have asked from a few tyre shops.

Btw, Hankook vs Kumho...which one is better?

Is Hankook also from Korea?

For the same range, kumho is about 5-10% cheaper.

But you can consider getting membership from Hankook (dunno if they are still pushing it or not though). This will make the tyres and their maintenance (rotation, alignment, balancing) cheaper.

If good ones would be like michelin pilot sport 3. Good performance in wet/dry and low noise.

I am using PS3 now, premium pricing but quality is good! :thumbsup:

roger bro, thanks for the prompt reply

will do some research, like what RockyBoy said, cannot be stingy on tyres

1 kiss backside easily more than $500 liao

happy holidays

fully agree on that!

in fact tyres are the only thing between your car and the road...

Hankook imo is the most value for $ yet good all rounder

happy national day!!

IMHO, regardsless of what brand you uses, it will produce some noisy sound toward the end of the life span :sick: but noise level differ from brand to brand.....lor :erm: !

IMO their prices are high if you check out other tyre shops but that was still 1 year ago when I made comparision. Maybe it has changed
